Today, Will helped me stretch some vintage fabric onto stretcher bars. I love the effect!

Blog I Love: Shop Vintage Portland

As a complete narcissist, I am a big fan of anyone who is just like me and likes all of the same things that I like. When I found the blog Shop Vintage Portland, I felt instantly at home with the reviews of thrift shops and colorful photos of stuff I would love to buy.... Like pastel colored ceramic goodies and Hawaiian printed bathing suits. It must be love!

Friday Night at the Iowa City Arts Fair

Friday night was the perfect night to enjoy good food and people watching at the Iowa City Art Fair. The weather was warm and sunny, and everyone in the town came out to enjoy food from one of the many vendors on the street. Our friends Michelle and Nate met up with us to get some grub. Our first stop? Masala. Can't beat Indian food at a great price. Yum!

Also notable was the meat-on-a-stick. For $4 bucks, you big stick with giant chunks of steak just barely browned on the outside and bloody delicious on the inside. Will really enjoyed his new tin cup from Wild Bill's soda booth. The refills were endless for the night. Amazing!

Michelle and Nate in line for some Masala.

A whole plate of Indian food for only $6 bucks. Not too bad.

Nate and Michelle chowing down on the good stuff.

Warning: Do not feed the animals!

We all pretty much look like dorks but you get the picture. I think I am blinking. Thanks, Will!

Me and my meat-on-a-stick. Reminds me of being in Korea again!

Wild Bill's insanely good soda out of a barrel.

Will choose Root Beer, of course!

Will totally went the cheap route and got a hotdog to go with his orange soda.

All in all, I am glad I went to the Art Fair even though I didn't really see any art and the music was pretty bland and lame. But the food and the people watching- top notch! Every freak, hot babe, cute dog, rich bitch, and hippy in town was out for the evening!!!!

You've Got Mail

No one gets mail in their mailbox anymore! What a shame! I imagine things 50 years ago were much different and people would probably send and receive mail more often. Getting an actual piece of mail from the hand of another person miles away is an exciting thing and maybe we should all try harder to bring it back!

So if your name is Kendra, Kelsey, or Amana, today is your lucky day!!!! I am sending mail your way :) Added bonus: The Eames stamps I picked up from the post office are amazing. I desperately wish for a genuine piece of Eames furniture someday.

Fruits!!!!

Hi cuties!!!  I made these cute little by cutting out the shape and coloring it with some Crayola markers.  Oh, and undies and lamps.  Yay!!!

Photofunia is Pretty Fun!

Gotta love Photoshop! Thanks to a slew of free photo editing programs on the net, you can reap the benefits of Photoshop without putting the effort into it! The other day a friend on Facebook had posted some great photoshopped goodies of herself online so I decided to follow suit and try some for myself. Very gratifying and easy! Maybe you can try it for yourself?
