The Estate of Things

Loving what Russell+Hazel are serving up in their online shop. Here are a few things I “need”,

A6 Notebook

One Day at a Time set

Calendar pad

I’ve been eyeballing these for quite some time.  These personalized notes at Story by Mia would be a very sweet gift.

I’m a little crazy about loaning my books…ok more than crazy I refuse to do it.  It’s because I’ve done it before and those books were never returned.  I was just looking for a really fantastic book called Wolf Whistle and I have since discovered that I used to own this book.

So maybe a Personal Library Kit  might make me feel a little better about sharing.

A calendar is an important fixture on my desk at work.  In 2008, I enjoyed my Linda & Harriet letterpress calendar. I hung all twelve months on the wall in a horizontal line and kept the current month on my desk for easy viewing.

This year, I have a JHill Design desk calendar which I’ve really enjoyed.

At home, I have the Avie calendar that I received as a Christmas gift.

This year, I’m thinking about this beauty from Cat Seto.

They don’t love you like I love you…maps that is.

I don’t do the DIY thing very often but all the kids are doing it.  I don’t DIY because I can’t hardly even find the time to hang a curtain rod but I had a thought today about a DIY project that I think I will attempt, after I saw this…

These are remants from maps available at dlk designs. These quickly reminded me of the butterfly map cutouts we previously posted about here. 

Remember this?

I got to thinking about the Martha Stewart paper punches I saw at Michael’s craft store. There are several to choose from at the store.

And I’m sure you can tell where the thought process went from there. Of course the butterflies at Image Surgery were hand cut and thats a no go for me because I can hardly cut a circle.

I’m thinking a flock of birds or butterflies applied in a grid pattern, framed in an affordable white IKEA frame?

Maybe some of you crafty folks out there have got other ideas or can give me some helpful hints on application or paper?

No I’m sure you’re gonna like it. OPLUSD paper is oh so sassy, slightly inappropriate and I think they would probably skip you in line though I’m not sure. 

Ooooh and this one of mi favoritos,

I almost didn’t want to reveal some of this stuff because I will be sending some of their cards to my loved ones very soon. Wait none of my loved ones read this blog…
