Breathe

I'm happy to say it has been a really great week.  I was lucky to surround myself with great people, great music, work was fun too! I tattooed a roll of TP, because, well as Nate put it, who doesn't love toilet paper? Just think about it.
Kirsten got a sweet gypsy lady, and an eagle. It's a win win.

Speaking of tattoos, I just made an appointment with my brother from another mother, Shaun <3
Shaun is staying with us girls for the Portland tattoo expo, and I'm so excited to hangout again, introduce him to some wonderful people, and get tattooed.

It's a new month, which means a fresh start, and hopefully, maybe, finally fall? The air feels different, it's cooler, the light changed and the leaves are turning. I even had to dig out my boots. Fun!

We spent the week baking, I cut fabric for a fall quilt and did some necessary grocery shopping. Here is what my week looks like <3

With fall also comes inspiration, and sometimes I get so lucky to stumble upon new, great music, that is just that, inspiring. Check out these adorable Swedish sisters, First Aid Kit. I love them! 

What are you currently working on?

summer 2010 recap

October 1st, you would think summer would officially be over. It's hot, sticky and sunny in Portland, even after a week of rain. Oregon likes to tease you like that.

The Houghton house is finally complete, as of Wednesday. Our lovely 4th roomate Liz, is getting settled and moved in. She is quite the crafty lady as well, and makes wonderful jewelery. I can't wait for cooler weather, and craft nights.

It's almost scary how fast the last couple months went by, what happened to summer? I sure was busy.
I'm ready for apple picking, pumpkin carving, bike rides and rain. But before I say goodbye to summer for now I wanted to share the last months with you in photos. Enjoy <3

I can definitely say I did everything I wanted to do, I met some great people and made some of the best friends so far. Summer of 2010, you were fucking fantastic.
