Friday Faves!

Another Friday, and the 1st of March! Is it seriously March already? WTF?! This is going to be a fun month, because in 13 days I will be celebrating my birthday... woot woot! This is also the month I am finally getting my iPhone! Oh yea baby! It is going to be a fantastic birthday prezzie to me!

But anyhoozles... on to the topic at hand! What sort of things am I favoring this week? Well, let's find out, shall we?

• These gorgeous glittered candlesticks! My wedding planning desire has re-awakened, and with it, the wild pinning of all sorts of crazy cool ideas for decor, dresses, foods, you name it! The venue that I fell in love with, Pine River Ranch, doesn't allow open flames. That is perfectly fine with me because, quite frankly, I don't want a real barn-burner of a party!! I love the idea of sticking a single flower in the candlesticks instead! So elegant and whimsical!

• This incredible bouquet I came across on Etsy the other day. The colors are beautiful, and I love the fact that it is all fabric and brooches. LOVE!

• This iPhone case! Ok, so I know that I already talked about Zazzle cases, but I actually BOUGHT this one! I wanted it to arrive so that I could lovingly place my brand new baby... I mean iPhone... inside of it the MOMENT it's mine!

• This awesome DIY shelf! I have been eyeing this thing forever, and I finally get to make one! A resident's bi-fold laundry room door "fell" and has a huge hole in it now, so I get to take it home! Yippee! I think I am going to paint it a pretty mint color... I just have to find a darn place for it! :)

This website is chocked full of amazing crafty bits, you must check it out!

• So, when I was trying to find the picture of the shelf above to include in this post, I stumbled onto another amazing thing within the site. An entire compilation of craft room tours, one of my favorite things to look through, ever!! Just seeing all of these incredible rooms is making me antsy for a re-do of my own!

• This coat! For some reason, I have been very into scallops and chevron patterns lately, and I just love the color and styling of this coat!

Well, I believe that is about it for now, folks. Stay tuned tomorrow for the March edition of my monthly goals, and I might even slap up a b-day wish list, you know, in case you were wondering what to get me! ;)

LOVES!

Friday Faves!

I have no theme for this week, just a collection of some of my favorite things! :)

To start with, I wanted to express the joy I find in using Sally Hansen nail polishes. They always have the greatest shades, and for something as commonly found as they are, they are of quite good quality! My FAVORITES at the moment are these:

The silver, Celeb City, was the first one of the three that I bought, and I was instantly smitten. I picked up the gold, Golden-I, around my birthday last year, and the copper one, Coin Flip, just a couple of nights ago. They have a subtle metallic quality, almost glittery. It only takes about 2 coats of any of these colors to be completely solid on my nails. They are definitely glam, but it is easy to keep it classy!

Continuing on this vein of nail care (and no, I swear this is not the theme!), I am anxiously awaiting the time when I can try out this little goodie:

Lemony Flutter by LUSH Cosmetics

I first saw it blogged about over at The Dainty Squid (and you should definitely check out her blog, it is amazing!) and I had to check it out. My cuticles are a hot mess, and I am always wanting to do more for them. The reviews on their site all make it sound fantabulous, so I have bookmarked it for a future purchase!

iPhone 4S cases at zazzle.com

In precisely 23 days, I will be saying, "Sayonara!!" to T-Mobile and my stank myTouch and FINALLY trading up to an iPhone!!! I cannot wait! And to celebrate, I have been drooling over the cases over at Zazzle. There are literally thousands of designs!

My birthday is fast approaching, and for said birthday, I want to get away to this little slice of heaven on the Washington coast:

This unbelievably charming little place is called Seabrook, and it is located between Ocean Shores and Moclips. It was established in 2006 (if I remember correctly) and literally looks like it is a movie set. It feels like time just stops when you are there. I have only had the pleasure of driving through the town, but I am hoping that soon my dream of actually staying here will come true. I am a little obsessed with the idea at the moment, actually! :)

That's all I've got for you today folks, it was a much-too-long day at work today, and I am a little tapped out! :) But I hope I have given you some new things to fall in love with!

As always, I love to hear what some of YOUR favorite things are! Tata-roonie!!
