After three months in our new home I finally decided to hang my entryway mirror. I was afraid it was too heavy and I didn’t know how to properly mount it. After growing increasingly annoyed at myself I decided to just grab a giant nail and pray for a stud. When he didn’t show up, I knocked on the wall till I saw a hole from something the previous tenant had hung. ? Then I got to work.
I have big plans for that black and boring shelf…. But alas, it will wait for another day and another post. So, what do u think?
Both of these are gifts from amazing women I’m lucky to know.
I made that bowl at a pottery class I took earlier this year. It was in that class that I first declared in small talk to strangers that our fantasy of moving cross-country was starting to look more like a definite plan. Sometimes hearing yourself declare something can be a powerful tool for change. Sometimes. Other times it just leaves you feeling like an asshole for not following through. ?
An assortment of framed cards from my deck of Muchness Moments cards. I have a feeling people are gonna collect around that area reading before they leave my house… Which just gave me the idea to drop an assortment of cards in that bowl and invite them to take one on their way out!

Kaboom. And done.
Whatdya think? ?

Two hour delay at the airport… scrolling through pics on my phone to kill some time and stumbled upon these pics I took a few months ago…. a few years ago I wrote a blog post about my grandmother and her vast collection of mini ceramic shoes. She loved her tchotchkes but she was incredibly classy and her shoe collection always felt a little quirky next to all her expensive crystal and silver. I, of course, loved them, and when she passed away a year and a half ago, while other family members decided who got what from the silver and crystal, I just requested her quirky collection of shoes. And I got them… most of them anyhow. Interestingly, these three miniatures matched so well to actual shoes I already owned. There were others that match too, but these are the only pics I have in my phone. I bought some shadow boxes last year to customize and display the shoes, but never finished that project. I’m gonna pick it up and finish it after Passover and share it with you. In addition to a bunch of sparkly collectible shoes from the MET, I have an entire display filled with just shit-kicking mini cowboy boots. I don’t think my grandmother ever put on a pair of cowboy boots in her life…. unless Chanel happened to make a version of a cowboy boot at some point in the 70s…. and even then…
