So cute to be included in this Treasury. That really is the perfect plaid shirt.

Makes me miss last summer's camping adventures...time to make something happen.

I've been M.I.A.

My summer's been crazy and amazing.  Working all the time on so many projects...just got done assistant styling my first photoshoot which was such hard work with our tiny team, but so incredibly thrilling.  Can't wait to show off the end result but for now I must keep it under wraps.

But for now I'll leave you with some inspiring imagery via I'll Sleep When I Die. 

Love those pink ends and platforms.

Summer Teepee///For My Peas

I had such a good weekend. The Mississippi Street Fair was going on and I made a teepee for my side yard with bamboo from the neighbor, fabric scraps and a string of pennants I picked up at Crafty Wonderland back in the day.

Bits of My Holiday Weekend

I spent this last weekend with very good friends. It was perfection.

We found this amazing garage door in southeast Portland while garage sale-ing. HOLY COW! The woman said she painted it 10 years ago and it is still so beautiful and vibrant. I bet her neighbors thought she was crazy, I thought she was a genius.

My fabulous old roommate, Libby, is in town from Indianapolis.  We suprised her at the airport with a cardboard sign and a bottle of champagne...(never) too much ruckus ensued. We then spent the 4th getting lost on the Sandy river...

...and relaxing with my old friend, Tecate. 

 

We fought the masses on the Hawthorne bridge later in the night for front front row views of the fireworks over the river.

Hope you had a dreamy weekend too.

Summer Accessories///Crocheted Purse

 

This is my perfect crocheted purse I thrifted a month or so back. The perfect shopping bag size I can carry everything I need and still look feminine. 

It was a little yellowed so after a good bleach soak it's beautiful again and ready to get dirty all over again...since I seem to be taking it EVERYWHERE.
