Love and Lust

Love and Lust
Love and Lust by Anne Lambdin featuring a crossbody handbag
I have a penchant for fabulous leather sachels and chunky boots for this fall.

This is my first Polyvore set so I am not sure that it looks that great but I thought I would have a go.
Here is something else lustworthy. Have you tried these puddings yet! OMG, talk about delish and only 60 calories each. They are so good you could eat at least two in one sitting.

I hope everyone is having a nice extended weekend.....

TTFN....

John Derian Interpretation


Long time no see again dear bloggeroos.
Depression has raised it's ugly head chez moi, so I have been forcing myself to do things I usually enjoy.
One of them is making stuff, the other is blogging. Well today I post and you get to see the fruits of this weeks labour.

Last week I did a post on John Derian's collection for Target that launches on Sunday the 5th (weird day to choose I reckon).
I was inspired and knew immediately what I would try to emulate.
It has taken me all week to get it together enough to actually finish it, but here it is....


It was so easy to do but the only thing I don't really like is the way the antiquing came out. I did finish it off with a coat of polyurethane to protect it from water so I can wipe the brown stuff off if I want. I was clever enough to do that step last in case of the above!

I also managed to clean all my floors and carpets today...again forcing myself....so tomorrow it is all about the dusting. Fun times.
I think I may have something else to show you tomorrow so stay tuned.

Forgot to say I am linking to Frugalicious Friday over here >>>>>

More Lemons to Squeeze

Feeling pretty bummed this morning.
I just got word from my son regarding where he will be stationed when he gets to the big A.
So much for being behind the lines and safe. I just looked up his FOB (Forward Operating Base) and let me tell you, IT IS NOT BEHIND THE LINES.

I will be putting together care packages to send to our boys and girls. It really boosts their morale when they get them, plus they need really silly stuff like duct tape, carabiners, rubber bands, work gloves, batteries and lots and lots of toiletries.

If anyone would like to help me with this endeavour it would be truly appreciated.

More to come on that later.
