Bloglovin


WOO HOO! You can now find me on Bloglovin!!

I have only been blogging for a little over a month now and have been a blog reader for about the same time.  Over and over I have heard about Bloglovin, seen the buttons on people's pages and sort of just pushed the idea out of my head.  I'll figure it out later!  I don't need it!  Psssshhhh!!! (Just some of the thoughts that would go through my head at the idea of signing up)  Well, I caved!  And I've gotta admit, it's my new favorite way to read my favorite blogs.  See, I'm one of those.... scroll down the reader and open each one in a different window kind of blog readers.  I follow and read A LOT of blogs so I open probably six at a time and sit back and work my way through them.  I don't like to use google reader because I like to SEE the blog... I want to see the layout and get the entire experience.  Bloglovin just seems to make my clicking and new windows a lot easier and organized. (Think I'm a weirdo yet?)  There is probably a much more simplified solution to the way I read other blogs but I haven't found it yet.  And hopefully this post makes sense to you and I'm not just rambling and rambling on and on about ridiculousness.  *nervous laugh*  

Anyway!  If you'd like to follow me on Bloglovin just click HERE!

And let me know if you are on there as well!  As I read blogs straight from blogger I'm checking to see if they have the nifty button but I know I'm missing some!

Wonderland in Color

A few days ago my friend Nanc' surprised me with a BUNCH of awesome nail polish collections to play with.  Immediately, I started thinking about all the fun things I could do with my nails and all of the colors!  Before anything though... I had to try them out and see how they looked.  And of course share them on the blog (duh).  The first one that caught my eye was the O.P.I. collection inspired by Alice in Wonderland.


Absolutely Alice -- Thanks So Muchness! -- Off with Her Red! -- Mad as a Hatter

Aren't these colors amazing?   They are so "Alice" and I also love them because they aren't too out there or wacky to mix and match with other colors. Don't mind my stubby nails! :)  

Which one is your favorite?  I really love the blue sparkles an the pearly pinkish red.  I might play with them some more tomorrow and come up with some different designs.  And in a few days I'll show you some of the other cool collections Nanc' brought over!

Purple Haze

I found some amazing items on Etsy to finish off my Rainbow Series.  If you missed the others you can check them out here.  I'm pretty sad to see this series end.  I started it only days after my blog was born and even though I have only been writing here for a little over a month it feels like this series has grown with me.  But I'm excited to come up with a new one here very soon!  For now....

 hand painted wine glasses -- twigstudionc

 la-rochelle porcelain ring -- MaaPstudio

 bee flowers, watercolor -- silverridgestudio

 vase -- TerrasPots

 hobo bag -- sineminugur

 flying birds t-shirt -- CritterJitters

pinback button -- thepixelprince

Today is going to be a nice day.  I have some exciting things to photograph for the blog (clue: movies!) and Nanc' is coming over later today to make something (clue: delicious!) with me!  I can't wait.  Other than that I will be taking Yama for a walk and getting some things organized around the house.  I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!
