October Pin Ups

Here are the best of the month... Enjoy!

Inspiration: Staying Cozy

It happened; the weather shifted from still-holding-on-to-summer-warmth to yup-winters-coming-and-it's-100%-fall-now. So I thought I'd look for some inspiration to get me through the chill. Time to break out the tea and jammies...

Happy Friday!

Oooooh, what goes with my Giants hat???

Oh, thats right- EVERYTHING.



Happy Friday

And Game 3.

Makin' It Happen: Smashbook

Hi; I'm Katie and I'm addicted to scrapbooking.

No really though, I just finished my first scrapbook this week and I'm obsessed. Theres something deeply satisfying about taking paper and glue and making something adorable and, hopefully, worth treasuring. 

Today, while out on a grocery run, my roommate and I stopped my Michaels (cuz why not?) and I found this:

That's right kids; It's my first Smashbook.

I guess that means I'm finally a woman. 

Smashbook is a line of scrapbooks designed to be, well, smashed together. That is, it's not meant to be a particular style or theme but a conglomerate of scrapbooking bits and pieces. It's like a spiral-bound notebook but the pages are all cute and ready to be decorated. 

I'm going to use my Smashbook as a personal challenge: fill it up in the next 52 weeks. Hopefully, setting aside time every week or so to craft, create and look at old pictures will help keep me inspired. 

Here's to hobbies!

Wish List: Flats

Ok, I love the look of heels, but let's be honest: they're hardly practical.

As a result, the bulk of my shoe collection is flats. Unfortunately they're all wearing out at the same time. OH NO- now I have to shop.

Here's some of my favorites

Say Hello to My Jewelry

I finally have all my jewelry unpacked and set up.

Although many people subscribe to the jewelry box school of thought, I prefer to hang up all me jewelry. That way I can see it all and grab what I'm looking for in the morning.

Take a look and see what you think

Happy Friday!

It's Friday! Go out and get yourself a well-deserved drink and something fried; I know I will be!

Here's a pic of my grandma's happy dogdog to get you going.

Have a good weekend!
