What I'm in love with this minute. Nature inspired necklaces by Red Sofa.

I especially love her silver crab claw necklaces....since I'm a Cancer, I think I need one.

It's really hot in here. I keep forgetting what day it is. Do you think that has anything to do with the heat? Earlier a man mentioned that today is supossed to be one of the hottest days of the year in Seattle. Is that possible? It's only June. But he really seemed to know what he was talking about.

My newest product addition....Botanical Solid Perfumes were on the front page of Etsy last night. Front page action is always good for sales and the treasury was really pretty. The theme was "Inspired by June Weddings". Unfortunately, it was while I was sleeping, so the perfumes sold out before I could list more. But they are re-stocked now. Go here to see.

Available in three new scents; Velvet Blush, Pink Garden Rose & Day Dream. Pretty packaging is coming soon...I always try out the actual item first on Etsy to see what stays & what goes.

Dresses & Driving.

I'm planning a little birthday road trip to Walla Walla. I need new clothes. Mostly I just want new clothes. & what I want are dresses. Lots & lots of dresses. I love the selection at Anthropologie and even though I should have been working....spent a good 2 hours there this morning. This would be the perfect driving dress...Gallaxy of Dots....except for the fact that my friend Sarah already has it...so I couldn't buy that one.

Sarah in her sassy dress.

Winery hopping in this. I really want to stay at Abeja. They have beautiful accomodations. I can't decided between there or the Whitman. Any suggestions?

I'm going to wear my new Gypsy dress to dinner. I had always wanted to go to 26 Brix, but just learned they have closed. So I'm not sure where I'm going...probably here. But I'll still wear my dress.

I was thinking about my neices today. I have 5. They are all super cute & cuddly. I came across these wall decals on Etsy and think one of my little gals should have some.

Made by Mae in Australia. These unique wall stickers are made of fabric instead of the usual vinyl. This makes them perfect for children, as they are removable and completely reusable. They can be scrunched into a ball and will easily un-scrunch and re-apply to your wall, many times over. They are even washable. Stickers can be applied to almost any surface, and will not damage your walls.

I am particularly fond of the Dress up Dolls. How fun would these be on your fridge? I want some for my place! (my b-day is June 25th for any interested parties).

sweet find.

Photographer Yvette Inufio seems to capture utter prettiness. (I know that isn't really a word, but it should be) Her photographs remind me of a delicate perfume. If delicate perfume had an image...to me, this is what it would look like. Her work inspires me. See more of her work here.

Yvette was also featured on Photojojo as one of 20 Photographers Whose Work You Can Actually Afford.

I want to live in her photographs. They feel so dreamy and delicate and pretty.

boo.hoo.

It annoys me when people complain about how they have neglected their blogs. Really....no one cares. So I'm not going to do that.

I've been busy. Life is getting in the way of my blogging time. Life is also getting in the way of me being able to spend time with my friends...and that makes me sad.

I saw this picture today and it reminds me of my cute sweet friend Sidney. She has a thing for typewriters. I'm not sure why. We have never explored the issue. Hi Sidney. Miss you. Why do you like typewriters so?
