Ode to Audrey

Today is Audrey Hepburn's Birthday.  I love her. She's my favey fav. But then again, who doesn't like Audrey? I'm not really very big on obsessing over celebrities, and I don't really keep up with any or hollywood in general really (though I do love Zooey Deschanel and Taylor Swift. And I may have crushes on Christian Bale and Adam Brody to name a few...).
However, not only was Audrey a talented and beautiful actress, but a genuinely kind and wonderful person. I read her biography a couple years ago, and it was a very interesting read. I thought so anyway.
I can't really remember when my adoration for her started but I think it was around the time I saw Breakfast At Tiffany's when I was maybe 13 or 14 years old. Needless to say I have loved her ever since.
So in honor of her Birthday here are a few of my favorite pictures of this iconic actress.









Thank You

I wanted to thank everyone's encouraging response to the birds nest ring I made! I had made two for bridal shower gifts (remember, I have a lot of weddings to go to this year) and they seemed to be very well liked by their recipients. So much so that I had other girls wanting one, and I already have several orders lined up! So as soon as I stock up on more wire I will make a few and put them in the shop. Promise.
Though I need to figure out ring sizing....
Anyone know if there's a ring sizer or something I can buy at a craft store?

Also.... May is here? What the mess. Why is 2011 going by so quickly? I would greatly appreciate it if it would slow down please.... If only because it makes me more and more aware of how slack I am being about getting this business venture up and running as the months go by.
I'm getting there though.
I just need a little encouragement sometimes.
And a whole lot of pushing and prodding.





Just One of Those Days

It's just one of those days that's perfect for staying in bed, under all the cozy blankets, and doing nothing but read a good book.
Unfortunately I've had to be up since 6 a.m. so this was not an option for me.
*sigh*

Along those lines, wouldn't it just be wonderful to have your very own library crammed full, floor to ceiling, with lovely endless amounts of books?







I think so.

Happy Easter


There are a lot of victorious moments in history, but none so great as the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Happy Easter everyone.
Go eat some jelly beans (so there are less for me. I prefer chocolate.)

P.s. Someone buy me a baby bunny please. I need one.
