Productive Days

This weekend was fantastic and full of my favorite things. Sterling and I went to our favorite antique and thrift stores. Found some really fantastic books, Sterling bought me a fire opal and pearl ring so I could always feel like a princess. We went to our favorite holistic and new age shops, and our new favorite "witchy" store, Gypsy Caravan. We spent so much time out and about in our favorite places together.  Our book shelves are overflowing with books. And my kitchen counters are overflowing with new herbs and oils.






We got home from our adventure and I started on projects. In one night, I made a rug from clearance placemats. I revamped a little cabinet from a thrift store into a little shelf to display my crystals. I also made some bath salts for aches and pains and relaxation. And even got a little painting done.


 



I love busy, full, productive weekends like this.

Skeletons In The Closet

I don't have skeletons in my closet...If I had a skeleton, he would be proudly displayed. 
I went to an antique store near by and met some beautiful skeletons and other beautiful oddities. 
This guy here is a real skeleton who donated his body to science. 
And I loved him.
Probably too much.
 Don't freak out, but we almost kissed.

 Then I found this fez. 
From Morocco, from the 1930's.
Fezzes are cool.
I wish I had a bow tie.
Bowties are cool.
(Please know what I'm talking about.)
 One last good bye.
And until I can get a real human skeleton, this is Clive, the mini skeleton in the hallway.
He is ready for Christmas.
