What's Up Pussy Cat??

You are looking at a set of vintage plastic cat lights I found on my thrifting adventures this weekend.... ARE THEY NOT AHHMMAAZZZING!? These just may have to light up a little corner of my work space for awhile before I can part with them in my shop ..... :)

Indian Summer?

It has been really rainy and a lot cooler here on the east coast but I am guessing when the rain stops we will have a bit of an Indian summer.... a couple more weeks of warm weather! The pieces below are still available at Hollie Would Vintage and whether you still have summer weather or not....these pieces are still hot!!

Is it still hot where you are?

INSPIRATION

I guess it really IS true you can find inspiration in just about anything!! I am not a super huge video game fan but I don't mind playing the occasional 'board' or 'world' games like Mario Brothers or Donkey Kong :) J (the boyfriend) is a pretty big video game player, though so we have been trying to find games we can play together that I would like. Well, we picked up a copy of Kirby's Epic Yarn for the Wii a few weeks ago and let me just say... I am so taken with it!! Not something I thought I would ever say about a video game!

The graphics are just sooo sweet looking....everything, including Kirby and his friends, are made out of yarn! It is a super cute knitted design and all the 'worlds' look like they are made of cloth and textiles....Perfect for crafty people! :) The different worlds just look so dreamy...complete with fluffy clouds, squishy mushrooms and even a whole world dedicated to cupcakes and candies!

It is a great game for kids (meant for kids actually, I think ...lol) where you don't ever really 'die'.

I just thought I would share because I find the graphics of the game to be so luscious and inspiring! Make me want to create my own world of yarn and fabric!!

Day Trip

A few weeks ago J (the boyfriend) and I drove about 3 hours to tour a cave called Penn's Cave. It is a beautiful underground lake that you ride through. They also offer 'Safari' tours which we also took. I will share more photos later of the trip but just wanted to share this one that I liked in particular. - Taken with the Instagram app on my Iphone.

Wheezy Wednesday

Hipstamatic Pittsburgh

I recently joined the world of the 'smart phone' and don't know how I have gone so long without one! I got a white Iphone 4 as a present to myself for getting a new job :) I, of course, downloaded Hipstamatic and Instagram right away. Recently my boyfriends' brother's girlfriend was visiting from Chicago and we did the 'touristy' Pittsburgh stuff with them. Below are some Hipstamic photos I took.
