Owls - my new obsession!

For the longest time I was in love with cows. When walking into my kitchen you would be confronted with cows galore. Then about eight years ago I got rid of all the cows, except two. One because it was a gift from my late grandmother and the other... well I don't remember why I kept that one. Anyhow that one sits on the windowsill at my boyfriends house. In my current kitchen I have only one cow. I don't know what happened. I just don't think they're cute anymore. Frogs are cute and monkeys too but not enough so that I've gone on a spending spree. Recently something has caught my eye, the wise owl. I hanker for them, constantly. Ode to the owl!

Indoor Gardens - String

What do you think about this?

It's a little unrealistic for "inside" my house but I could definitely see this outside on the patio. If you like it then you can find it here, Amsterdam Redlight Design. 

 

Indoor Gardens - Glass Bubble Collection

I've been thinking about indoor gardens. I love plants and I wish I had more around me (inside the house). So this post is about all the little garden projects in my mind that I would like to make a reality. As usual, more to come...

Cute little hanging glass bubble collection from Shane Powers that is great for air plants.

 A few more pictures of glass bubbles. These are from Flora Grubb Gardens.

These two are from Anthropologie...

This one you can even wear around your neck, if you like =)

Heart Frame

I keep seeing this framed heart artwork. I love the way the heart is falling apart/off. I also love hearts. It's a win, win situation ;) I've gone as far as buying the frame and different sizes of Stampin' Up! heart punches. I just need to find paper (tissue, scrap book??) and start punching out hearts. More to come...

Origami Cranes

I found this picture of a hanging lamp made with origami paper cranes. I really like this idea and want to try it someday (when time permits). I haven't decided yet if I want to make birds (as in this picture) or hearts (my favorite). Also, I haven't decided yet if I want to use multi-colored paper or only shades of pink and red. More to come...

Here's one more picture I found with the same hanging lamp. I love it, I love it, I love it!!

More paper cranes...

Even a picture of it on one of my favorite blogs

Birthday Cards (Stampin' Up!)

Here are a few birthday cards I made using the Stampin' Up! products...

Valentine's Day Collage Picture Frame

Here is my version of a Valentine's Day Collage. Too bad I broke the glass. So it's glassless. Still cute. Eventually I will just have to replace the glass.
