get ready for a WHOLE lotta' mis-mach right now - this post is ALL over there - but i do need HELP - if you know who created the "EYE" piece below - PLEASE let me know!!!! *thanks*
remember how i was DYING to get this Aiko top? - but i needed to wait for it to go on sale - well hallelujah! - Nordstrom came through for me - and i snatched this baby up JUST in time!
(i saw this on a girl in Starbucks, had to ask who it was by, ever since then i had to own it)
DO YOU EVER ASK PEOPLE WHERE THEY GOT SOMETHING???
THEN RUN RIGHT OUT TO BUY IT ASAP???
does ANYONE KNOW WHO CREATED THIS ART?!?! - (yes the eye)
i know it's creepy in a way - but i LOVE IT!
if anyone in blog land knows who created this piece - PLEASE let me know!!!
THANKS!!!
i am recreating this sign for myself!
if i had a store/resturant/ect i would definatly hang this baby up!
i think it's THE most adorable and creative thing i read in a long time!
how can you not smile when you read this?!?!?!
from reading here - you know i'm painting my front door yellow
(haven't yet b/c i've been so busy)
in addition i haven't re-faced my outside yet - and well good thing i didn't!
b/c i'm going to get the exact siding done from this house to mine
it's a match made in heaven! *sighhhh*
HAPPY WEEKEND BUTTERFLIES!!!
don't forget new give-away next week!!!
My Life:
so i'm sick - i have a cold and cough *boohoo* - feel like crap - hate being sick (but then who likes it?!) -- had to fire my carpenter who was to do my finishing work in my house (frustrated b/c now i gotta find someone new who is goooooood) - he for some reason thought he could raise his voice to me, be rude, and nasty - well well well - he just lost a whole lotta money for that bad attitude - do you ever get that, where guy's think they don't need to respect you b/c your a woman?? - that's whats been tough with my reno, b/c i've been calling the shots and so forth (a women, solo) - and i find a lot of men don't think i know what i'm talking about (and i do) - HOW annoying - so obviously those people never got the job! .. oh well, there goes my busy weekend of moving in - now it'll be me laying in bed watching movie after movie taking cold medicine upon cold medicine to get rid of this thing! - AND find a new carpenter in the process! - *ick* - hopefully Joe will treat me with some surprises this weekend to make me feel better :o)
I kind of like the eye print - it's interesting and I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteNice score on grabbing that top on sale - it's perfect for a night out.
Have a great weekend!

PS! Ive missed you this week!
That sign is so adorable! I want one even if I don't have a business.
ReplyDeleteI think "shopping" off of other's outfits is the best. Then a real person is wearing it and not just a mannequin or hanger.
I adore that yellow door
ReplyDeleteIck! Hope you feel better soon! Plenty of rest and liquids. :)
ReplyDeleteget well soon x
ReplyDeleteHaha Love that sign. And for the eye art I have no idea who it is but why don't you make your own? Just get someone to take a close up shot and get it printed blue tint.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better and find that dream carpenter!
I just love that sign! And yay that the shirt went on sale. I love! Rest up & feel better sweetie. Try to enjoy the weekend xoxo

Erika, that eye print is so cool.... I can see you loving that! I am sorry you are under the weather and had a chauvinistic carpenter to deal with.... some people are just jerks.. you will find someone good. Lots of chicken soup, rest and a great movie or two. Don't worry about the other stuff... just rest and feel better! xo
ReplyDeleteI ask people where they get things all the time - I even asked a girl where she got her spray tan!! haha I think she was midly traumatized by that one though lol
ReplyDeleteLove that sign...it so fab! And the little bungalow with that yellow door is sheer perfection. Can't wait to see yours.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I cannot help you with the eye print, but I do LOVE that top. It's so effortlessly chic, really. As for the sign, it's fabulous! My mechanic has one that's similar, and I laugh every time I come in...
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend was perfect :)
xoxo
Love the yellow door - but maybe I'm a little biased because we have one!
ReplyDeletePS: Also thought you might be interested in a fab giveaway I'm currently running...http://checksandspots.blogspot.com/2010/11/giveaway-giveaway-giveaway.html
I have an annoying cough, too... hope you're feeling better. Oh and I bet it felt good to fire an idiot like that!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great print {eye}!! I don't know who the artist is.. :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a nice weekend. I really like the idea of the yellow door, it really POPS.
