Haven't really had much to blog about the past few months. Just recently, work has become very busy once shows have gone into production. My friend
Kevin Marco was just promoted from digitizer to an assistant editor which bumped me up to working his day shift. I now work 9am-6pm!
I HAVE FRIDAY NIGHTS AGAIN! (First time since before September 2011). I'm still trying to get use to the different sleeping pattern. It's been a exhausting couple of weeks.
Some of you (probably girls) have heard of the website called,
Pinterest. Some people, especially guys, do not understand the point of it. So! Let me explain. The website is dedicated to 'pinning' your interests. Get it? Pinterest! (So clever, right?) It is a website full of pictures put into categories from food, apparel, to photography, to home decor.
EVERYTHING! I have recently become obsessed with this site because it really inspires me. I find inspiration for outfits, decorating, to baking delicious treats! Without Pinterest I would have never thought of baking my Rudolph cookies during Christmas or my peanut butter dove heart cookies for Valentines Day.

The home decor section gives me really great ideas when decorating or renovating furniture. (You can also see another one of my Pinterest inspired projects in the background that involved melting crayons onto a canvas to create a cool effect). I recently bought a side table from IKEA and decided to make it my own. I went to Lowes and matched a pretty blue color to the picture hanging above my bed. I had to buy sand paper, primer, paint, paint brushes/rollers, a drop cloth and finisher spray. It was a long process, but it turned out great! I knew I needed a cool lamp to put on my table so I started searching online. I went to every store I could think of and came to the conclusion: lamps are wicked expensive. Seriously! Luckily, I went to Pier 1 Imports and found an awesome lamp on sale for like $30. I love it. Pier 1 became my new favorite store that day. (Sorry IKEA). They had so many pretty things. I ended up buying 2 pillows along with my lamp. Their entire pillow section is amazing. I want them all.
I finally finished the table yesterday when I went to
Anthropologie and bought cute nobs for the drawers. They had so many cute ones to choose from! It's an expensive store, but they have really pretty cups and bowls for decoration, kitchen ware, and for the bathroom. I wanted everything!
So, I highly recommend Pinterest. I promise you'll be inspired and motivated to create something awesome. Be sure to find me and follow my pins!
