Birds of a feather ;)

In my last post I gushed a teeny bit over discovering Taylor Kenney Jewelry, actually based in Fort Collins, a town that will always hold a piece of my heart since spending those special 4 years of college there. I digress {as is normal}.

I have found a new friend in this talented jewelry artiste! Taylor found my gushing smidget and offered to send me a piece of my choice {twisty-twist my lil arm}.

Honestly? It was like picking your favorite child...or fur child in my case.
But somehow...I managed to whittle it down to quite a fab choice if- I -do- say -so- myself -thank- you- very- much!


Warning: the image you're about to see features a girl with no make up, dark circles, and roots to marvel Madonna

feather earring

The Feather Earrings are a pair of actual feathers which have been dipped in a layer of 24 karat gold. Very lightweight, with such a gorgeous golden hue! Length is 2 and 3/4 inches. Gold filled earwires.

They are so LIGHT! Thank you, thank you Taylor Kenney, for your generosity, and for your creativity captured in these gorgeous pieces :)


Oh, and guess what friends? I have a new job! eeeek! I will share more soon, I'm so excited/nervous.

Have a splendid book-end of a week loves!

scrap-tastic

I have so much scrap fabric, I decided to make some lilly p. meets bohemian  braided head bands to help disguise my lack of a cute summer hairstyle ;)
I love this pink and green

But then I love the orange and green polka dots! {excuse the super chic messy bun}

 A recent OOTD, being creative with the warmer temps.
Splendid cardi, F21 dress

Ya know what would be cute with this, or any summer en-semb?
A cute piece of jewelry from Taylor Kenney. I recently stumbled upon a pair of her earrings and found out she lives mere miles from this very CO cupcake! She is said to be inspired by the natural beauty of our Rocky Mountains :-)

Riding the heat wave

Whew it is going to be 100 today in Denver! Pool tiiiiime!

With the heat, we have been trying to keep busy and productive, but as is evident by my daugers (get it? my dogs, that are like my daughters? Hush, it's not weird) the temps tend to take there toll. {say that 10 times fast!}

As is normal lately, blogger isn't working well. But here is a photo of Peach passed out from heat exhaustion on her uncle Chad's computer :)

 randomly moving on...
My mom and I hosted a baby shower for my sweet cousin. She made a haul from family and friends who helped to prepare her for baby Jackson.
sorry for the phone pics, I promise the shower was NOT in a cave.
 I have more to share, but I will wait until blogger and I are through fighting ;) hope you all have a great day and find a way to either escape or embrace this glorious heat!

blogger, you better check yo self

because when you are always on the fritz and won't let me upload photos, or you delete all the blog worlds newest posts... it makes me frus-ter-ated.

And since I know your day wouldn't be complete without weenie wednesday {whose would be?!} I'll post some pics of my girls today instead. Did I mention they remind me of Mr. Popper's Penguins?
Eva is a mix between loudy and lovey.

 My sweet Peach is a mix of lovey and stinky.

And I am apparently a new breed of crazy bird.



Do you ever see different kinds of animals and they remind you of your own sweet furbabies?
No?
Me either ;)

Summer fun

I feel like road runner. With all the absolutely beautiful weather, I feel like I'm running around leaving a trail of smoke behind me! 

My mom found this table for $12
I sanded...
I primed...
I painted...                                                                  Then Distressed...


 Voila! It's ready to go in my mom's sweet little shop :)

I've also been enjoying the pool, along with friends, family, 
and this watermelon margarita {which I didn't hate ;)}!
~YUM~

 I have also been forced to sip on delicious mint spritzers.

Isn't summer rough?!
I hope you all are enjoying the long hours of sunshine :)

meep-meep

Vacay in the BayBay

I've been absent from the blog world for a bit, but for good reason! We took a quick trip this last week to San Francisco and the surrounding areas for the wedding of some awesome friends. I wanted to make a fabulous movie of our travels, but for the sake of time {and my lack of movie making skills} I made a little slideshow for fun. Here's our trip, in a little nutshell :) Can't wait to catch up with all of you!
