Sweet Stuff

I’ve done better this week than last with updating this blog….but not much better.

This week has been good.

1. Monday

2. On Wednesday, we went out for sushi. It was gooooood.

3. After I was done eating, I decided I needed some Glamour Shots!


That’sridiculous.

4. I saw this on the bathroom wall.

Can you read that? I’m not sure if I can only because I actually saw it.
Why would someone kiss the wall in a public bathroom. Ewwwwwwwwww.

5. I ❤ Laundry Lounge. They have magazines and a change machine that’ll take 20’s and free wi-fi. They have great signs too!

6. While I was doing laundry yesterday, I started taking apart this sweater that I have that’s super soft but never fit me.

7. Here are three things I got when I went shopping Thursday:
One funny shirt:

Two sweet records:

The End!

Sunday again? Already?

I just realized that I haven’t written a blog since last Sunday.

To be quite honest, I feel like alot of shit is going on in my life right now (not to mention I’m at the laundry mat) so I can’t really concentrate at the moment. I think it would take me 4 hours to do a Sweet Stuff blog so I’ll just tell you guys about yesterday I guess.

I went to the Flea Market at the drive-in with Rachael, Jess, and Jenne. It was fun but I didn’t see anything I wanted to buy except for some rice crispy treats…which I didn’t buy. No one really found much so we went to Value Village after that. I got a clock to sell on etsy, something to hold my records, and a necklace. I haven’t decided if I’ll wear the necklace, make something of it to sell, or just sell it like it is.

Ok, ok, ok. Later

(wow, that blog sucked right?)

first things first:

Ok I have to go ahead and get this out of the way. Maybe it doesn’t matter. It probably doesn’t.

So I was taking this picture of this sweet clock radio and thermos that I bought yesterday (to sell on etsy soon). When I turned on the radio Thriller was on. Not the version on my ipod. The version with the crazy talk and laugh. Whatever. So, cool I guess. Up next you ask. Several more ridiculous 80’s songs (also, for anyone that actually clicked that link. all you need is the first 30 seconds. doesn’t that sound familiar? like a different 80’s song? that i really know but really can’t think of right at this moment.) So they go to commercial and it’s not the car dealership commercial. It’s the “we’re gonna tell you about what music we play instead of just playing another song” commercial. They make this big spill about how they play all the “good stuff” before myspace, facebook, and twitter even exsisted (b/c that definitely means 80’s music only). And the very next song is freakin Beyonce. Confused? yes.

Ok. I’m done with that.

Here’s the pic of the clock and thermos I bought. They’re sweet.

I also have a few pictures from when I was in Rhine. They’re actually mostly dogs though. I was pretty much just hanging out with them the whole time…and painting of course…which I have no pictures of…

a cactus.

father’s day.

These are the pups I was taking care of:

daisy.

scarlett and lucky. they’re ready to go inside for treats.

sadie.

this is how windy it was.

Lastly, this is a horrible picture. Trust me. It was horrible in real life too.

she had on the most amazingly awful awesome crazy mullet wig i’ve ever seen. where do you even buy something like that? it was halfway down her back. notice the nice lady sideburn curls. hot.

k. I have things to do now.

Sweet Stuff!

I was just going through my favorites on etsy and realized that my list of hearted items is huge. So how about some stuff I want for sweet stuff this week?

1. 1940’s Kelly Green Umbrella

I don’t even know what to say about this. I mean look at it. It’s a green umbrella and it’s awesome! (And this whole shop is awesome…I want about half the stuff in it. haha)

2. Tundra Deer II in Bronze Neclace

I love this necklace. This shop has tons of stuff made from precious metal clay so it’s all really unique and cool.

3. 1950’s White Skyway Suitcase

This is from the same shop as the umbrella. Told ya it was a great shop.
Like I need another suitcase….it’s pretty sweet though right?

4. Custom Letter Charm

I really need to get a few of these! She also has lots of other stamped jewelry that’s awesome!

5. Hand Crank Wooden Boat Automata

I really like this. It reminds me of really old school toys. Check out the listings and each one has a youtube link so you can see the pieces in action.

6. Chameleon Dress and Tube Top Set

I’m definitely getting one of these dresses one day. You can wear it probably a hundred different ways. How cool is that?

7. Recycled Stemless Etched Wine Glasses

Recycled wine bottles + bird etching =totally sweet glasses! I think I’d use these every day.

Got any favorites to share?

junkin’

I need some thrift shopping time. Does anyone know any good ones in the area?

This is what I need!

Sweet Stuff!

Yesterday, I went to ICE Atlanta at Centennial Olympic Park. I met up with Rachael, Jess, Jenne, & Michelle. I had a ton of fun but I got pretty crispy burnt. No good. I did see alot of awesome stuff though.

1. My absolute favorite tent was Talulah B’s. She used lots of vintage things to make her jewlery. I wanted one of her B Naughty necklaces but didn’t have enough cash once I paid for Marta, lunch, and some yummy tea.

The necklace I wanted was like these…except for even more awesome.

2. That yummy tea I had was from Just Add Honey. It was Tropical Green Tea and I would highly recommend it!

3. I also loved Ornamental Things. That jewelry also featured alot of vintage charms and trinkets.

I love these two necklaces. There was also one at the show that I really really liked but I couldn’t find it on the site.

4. The Tangled Woods had some super cute gnome terrariums at the show. I hope she makes these again:

I’d buy one of both!

5. Another Sassy Product had some really cool journal books!

There are pages from the original book plus tons of blank paper to write on.

6. I also loved the So She Sews tent. I actually just discoved their etsy page a little while ago. They have these really cute owl pouches made from fused plastic bags! I’ve actually tried to do the whole fused plastic bag thing and just never could get it right.

Kinda makes me want to give it another try…or maybe just buy one…or both.

7. Lastly, I have to put up these pics. I was going to make some sweet rainbow cupcakes for my neighbor, Clint’s, birthday but it just never worked out. So I had some free time the other day and wanted to make a snack for craft night…what better snack than a cupcake? I took some over to craft night and I had about half to split between me and Marshall and Clint. Well they were delicious and pretty and awesome. But then when I got back from Rachael and Jess’ house and rushed to the kitchen to make sure Marshall hadn’t eatten all the rainbow cupcakes, I found out that Clint had gone out of town.
Sorry Clint.

Happy late birthday from me!

Ok. Gotta do laundry and errands and packing now.

The End

update!

I’ve added several new items to my etsy page: www.songsonrepeat.etsy.com.

This is just one of the few I’ve added today.

Maybe you’ll find something that catches your eye!

Sweet Stuff!

Ok, so I’m bored (doing laundry) so…here ya go.

I don’t really have much to say so I’ll just post some stuff I think is sweet…hence the title. Clever huh? Hmm

1. It’s Mother’s Day!

Yay!

2.

So now that I have these, I need something to do with them. There are lots of good/fun/funny ones…but there are also horribly scratched ones…and just plain horrible ones.

Which brings me to…

3. I know record bowls are pretty cliche and over-done…but I actually like this one.

It’s rectangular and…well I like it.

4. I also found these:

Bookends!

5. Ok enough records.  This came in my mailbox the other day. Can you read it? Amazing!

6.  This soap simultaneously intrigues me and creeps me out. I think I want some!

Anyone wanna make some creepy soap?

7.  Ok so this one is old. I just got new film like this developed. I have to scan and upload them soon!

No Tail!

Gotta put up laundry now. I can hardly contain my excitement. Watch out!

Friday

I’ve been taking lots of pictures of new (and vintage) stuff that I’ll be listing etsy soon.

Speaking of etsy….I’m really wanting one of these lockets. You put stuff in them and it’s cool…yeah that’s how lockets work.
