sunday loves

Today I went to Peddler's Village with my mom and sister. It was such a cute little place, but it was sooo crowded. I would love to go back again one day when there are less people there. My favorite store was Journey's Spirited Gifts because it's one of those types of stores that I typically like... you know, with incense, candles, books about new age religions, aromatherapy and tarot cards. Right up my alley :) I got some really pretty little candle holders... this is one of them:

sorry about the poor quality, I took this with my iphone!

Here are a couple of things that I am loving today:

Granny stars!!! I think I can tell what she did to make these, and I am definitely going to get some green and red yarn to make Christmas ornaments out of these! How adorable would that be? :)

These soft trees that Elsie posted about. The pattern to make them can be found here. I would love to make a little forest of these someday. I just need to learn how to work a sewing machine first... haha!

My new sneakers! I love Kangaroos sneakers because the kangaroo is cute, and they are soooo comfortable. Having comfortable sneakers is really important for me because I have RA, and I am on my feet the entire time I am at work... so my poor feet hurt! These definitely help :)
The playlist on Bleubird Vintage's blog. So nice... some of my old favorite songs, and a few new ones as well.


I am almost finished my scarf, so I will post pictures of that soon. Also, I have 20 grannies done for my mom's blanket (only 20!! Ughhhhh this is going to take foreverrrrr! Why didn't I make her a scarf, too??)

Tomorrow and Tuesday I have both school and work all day long, so I am going to have a looooong day. I hope I can survive! Hehe. I hope everyone had a great weekend :)
