Thank you to Christine from Etsy for discovering my junk-filled apartment via Flickr and for suggesting I be part of Etsy blog's "Get the Look" series.

I'm completely honored that I was selected and happy to show everyone my home.

broken rib

I finally finished the broken rib cardigan I knit a while ago. The pieces were finished a few months ago, but I just now got around to finishing it. It will be a great jacket to wear on chilly days.

christmas lights

Europe seems to "get" Christmas lights/decorations. It's just so much better than the half-assed crap you see in the US.

artist crush: duncan johnson

I am loving these pieces from artist Duncan Johnson. They are created from reclaimed wood, cut and assembled in to a "canvas". They look like they could be modern quilts!

verdi

I've always loved this image of Verdi.

my weekend in photos

through the seasons

I was recently told I have an obsession with the view from my apartment. How could I not be?! Look at how it changes through the seasons!

south pacific

I am loving the South Pacific vacation iPhone photos of my Flickr friend David Takes Photos. It'd be a nice place to be right now considering it was 2 degrees (-16c) here today!

artist crush: betsy walton

See more on Betsy's Flickr page.

collage

I was watching TV last night and realized that I wasn't accomplishing anything. So I got up and challenged myself to make 5 minute collages. Above are two of the better ones.

lotr

I am big Lord of the Rings fan. So I totally freaked when I saw what the fabulous Wary and Meyers team found... this amazing illustration at an estate sale. Imagine this hanging on your wall... SWOON!

Putting up 1950s silver Christmas tree. Baking some cookies to give as gifts. The first snow of the season. Making stockings out of vintage fabrics.
