A Much Needed TILT

[image via sophie*g]

I’ve been feeling so tragic this morning that I think that a Things I Love Thursday might be exactly what I need to brighten my day up a bit... My closing date got moved again and I just keep getting pushed closer to when my lease ends, I'm petrified of not having enough time to get everything done.

  • True Friends... I have so much love for my friends who can recognize when I have a big smile on face, but am screaming for help underneath. The accompaniment to the thrift store, chit chat, dancing, and amazing conversations keep me going and are greatly appreciated.
  • Comedy Night... Last night I went to my first comedy night and it was hilarious, much better than what I had expected. I just wish it were on a weekend so maybe I could have had a drink also! Wednesdays are not good party nights for an 8-5er.
  • DIY Projects... I keep seeing amazing DIY projects online that I'm dying to do and bookmarking them in hopes of accomplishing them when I get into my new house... Here are some of my favorites and links of the instructions so you can try them too:
  • Tumblr friend virtual hugs... A common practice for people on Tumblr is to stop following you if you have a bad day, just one post about having a bad day. Talk about fair weather friends, but every once in a while someone will reach out from the big scary world wide web and give you a nice virtual hug and that's so amazing... A stranger cares enough to let you know that it'll be ok and they've been through the same thing. Aww, feel the love :)
  • My Emo Playlist for today
  • Ranunculus... That's the flower at the top, I think they are so adorable, but never knew what they were called till yesterday! Now rest assured that my garden will be filled with them.

DIY Tea Cups Suggestions?


last night at the YMCA i found 3 white tea cups in one style and 5 in another so i bought all 8 of them up. i am going to do this project since i haven't been able to find tea cups that i like.

i need suggestions on what i should put on them and i'm praying my limited artistic abilities don't ruin it for me. so far some ideas that i like are:

  • dandelions
  • bunnies
  • mushrooms
  • owls
  • jellyfish/octopus [i wish i could just have hers to be honest with you]
  • eggs
  • plaid
  • silhouettes
  • post card
  • coral
  • dinosaurs
thoughts?
