A few months ago, I was asked to make some bridesmaids skirts for a beautiful bride-to-be. Of course I said yes -- I love to sew and I wanted to tackle this! <br />
I had some help from my mom (which I owe her big time for! Thanks Mom!), after all, she is the one who taught me to sew.<br />
<br />
I loved the concept of these skirts. The girls would each wear a skirt, but can choose the style of white top they wanted to wear. You know how they say "you can wear it again?" well you can totally wear these again! I think nowadays it's so important to get more then 1 wear out of things. With these skirts, you can dress it up or down..you can't go wrong with that!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It would appear that life has completely gotten in the way of being able to blog. That, and the fact that I have SO much to blog about and post about that I just can't yet! I find it hard to think about anything other then my house right now, we knew what we were getting into but this has been crazy!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm going to be doing an overhaul of this blog and starting (just about) from scratch. I've never been able to pin-point exactly what I want this blog to reflect but I've got some great stuff coming and I hope you'll join me! In the next few weeks, I'll be posting some pictures of my home renovation. I mean from the very day we took possession to the dirty stuff like being knee deep in insulation and then hopefully the finished product, bit by bit! I want to inspire young couples to not be afraid to jump in and tackle something like we did, its a very rewarding way to get into home ownership!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's just say -- when I say renovation, that's an understatement! When we purchased the house, it was bad. The home had been smoked in for years and years. The carpet was blue and green, and the house was so compartmentalized. We tore the ENTIRE thing apart, right down the studs. As you'll see over the course of the next few weeks, sometimes it looks like although we had made progress, that we took 2 steps back. We would get things cleaned up, only to have to dirty it all over again. <br /><br />I hope you`ll join me as I start to show you the progress of our home!</div>

I love the snow. You may think I'm crazy, but I hate the humidity that comes with the summer. It's impossible to breathe and you can't wear anything without it sticking to you. In the mornings, when I have to start my car, I run outside without a jacket and start the car. I love the feeling of the cold air on my skin and it wakes me up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been wanting to take some really simple pictures to show my yoga mat straps off. The sun was finally shining, which made for some great natural light in these pictures. Our fingers and faces were frozen 5 minutes in, and we were knee deep in snow a few times..but they turned out great!! </div>

I recently finished reupholstering my second wingback chair, and I'm totally in love with it! I highly recommend going this route, instead of buying expensive vintage wingback chairs. If you're lucky like I was, you'll get the chairs for free, but keep an eye on Kijiji and you may come across a gem! I spent about $90 on this fabric, and I already had the staples and staple guns. This is a project for anyone, you don't need to have experience reupholstering...I didn't!<br />
<br />
My "Project # 1" post was of the first chair that I did. I've seen these chairs in some pretty interesting patterns, mostly because they are so old and dated. While the fabric on these chairs weren't HORRIBLE, they did need to be cleaned and updated. <br />
<br />
<img src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-njh3rXaOa_s/UpaDR9yPBcI/AAAAAAAADa4/bLtJ_4ulCME/s640/IMG_00000320.jpg" /><br />
<br />
We went with a brighter fabric for the first chair (as seen below). For the second chair, I wanted a more neutral fabric. I knew the second I saw this leafy pattern, that I had to have it! It was perfect and I'm even more in love with it. <br />
<br />
This is the chair before, and after with the fabric for the first one. <br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
And this is the after of the second fabric I chose!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'll get around to posting a bigger picture of the whole chair soon!</div>

<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A while back, before we moved into our rental, we inherited these two awesome wingback chairs. I saw the potential in them right away. I have never tackled reupholstering something. I am surrounded by fabric all day, every day. If I'm not, I'm looking at it online to see what I can buy. I knew what this could be, and when my boyfriend and I bought our house, it finally gave me a reason to finish them. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The chairs weren't in bad condition, the arms and the seat were just a little dirty. No rips or anything, they looked like they had hardly been sat in! As I started to peel back the layers, the foam and padding were all in perfect condition and completely reusable. I wanted something with a pop of colour, and finally settled on this amazing fabric. It was hard to capture the exact colour on the camera, it's even brighter in person!</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It took a little trial and error, having to pull the fabric and operate the staple gun at the same time. For the first bit, I had a hard time getting the staples to even go into the wood of the chair. Eventually I managed to get the hang of it all. Surprisingly, no injuries were sustained!! </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I didn't post a play by play of the taking apart and putting back together process. I was so anxious to get it done, that once I started I didn't want to stop. If you start by peeling off the back of the chair first, the rest is self-explanatory. You will see how it was all put together. I kept each piece and used it as a guide when cutting the new piece. </div>

There you have it! We are going with something a little more neutral for the other chair. Renovations are underway to the new house, and I'm getting wayyyy to anxious to post pictures. I might have to post a sneak peak of what we've been up too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some people may think we are crazy taking on a total gut renovation, but I don't think we would want it any other way. It's fun and we can make it our own from top to bottom, start with these chairs!</div>

This wishlist is the one I'm most excited for. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
BECAUSE I'M OFFICIALLY A HOMEOWNER! That's right, my boyfriend and I have purchased our first home and we couldn't be more excited. It's a project and it's far from move-in-ready. We would go into a home and there was always something one of us didn't like about the property. This was the perfect oppourtunity to do a house exactly how we want it, but still keep with the charm of an older home. We didn't want to purchase a cookie-cutter house. I'm excited to pick out flooring, kitchens, bathrooms and paint colours. I've always found interior decorating very appealing and this is the ultimate test. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What Etsy is also amazing for, is home decorating! I can't get enough of the amazing products these shop owners offer, and it's taking everything I have NOT to go buck wild and buy everything...yet. Some of these things will be the inspiration behind the pieces I create myself.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is some of my favourite looks right now for the Home, all of which I hope to have sitting in my house someday!</div>

I find myself searching online for those perfect fall pieces. Sometimes I forget that they are right in front of me everyday! I spend hours on Etsy, updating my shop, answering inquiries or adding new pieces. It doesn't occur to me that most of what you are looking for online with those well known shopping websites, you can find on Etsy. The fact is, the pieces are often much better quality and they are handmade..you can't go wrong! If you have any questions, the shop owners are always happy to answer them. If the shop doesn't have what you're looking for, chances are the shop owner is willing to make it for you. Fall is my favourite for weather AND fashion, so here is my fall Etsy wishlist!</div>

The uses and benefits of lavender are endless! As many of you know, my yoga eye pillows are filled with lavender and flax seed. We can start by talking about how relaxing it is. That's why it is perfect for yoga class! Many use these eye pillows to assist in Final Relaxation at the end of the class. It relieves stress and anxiety. I suggest smelling lavender or having an eye pillow on your bedside table to use just before you go to bed. It relaxes you, and you are more likely to sleep just a little better.<br />
<br />
Lavender has been used in medicine for centuries. Using to cure the common cold, lung and sinus infections, and for joint relief. Have a headache? Pop an eye pillow in the freezer for an hour and place over your eyes or on your forehead. If you feel a scratchy throat coming on, brew some lavender tea! Add lemon or mint for extra flavour. Along with medicine, it is commonly used in everyday household cleaners. <br />
<br />
So sit back, relax and let lavender into your life! Purchase a yoga eye pillow from HASinspiration on Etsy for only $8.00 or email me for wholesale pricing!<br />

That's right, I've been swallowed into a sea of lavender and flax seed. I can't complain though..at least it smells nice! These last few weeks have been crazy and I keep making myself a promise to blog more. So far, I haven't kept that promise. It's crazy that the summer is almost over...I have some great things coming out on the Shirley line for the fall..I'm anxious to get them out and in the open. It's hard for me to accept that a product is ACTUALLY done. </div>

Monday...the only thing good about it, is that Bachelorette is on. That's right...hate all you want, but I have watched every single season. Even that sad, sad season called Bachelor Canada.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last week was my first week back from holidays. We didn't do much while on holidays, but it was nothing short of perfect. I'm so lucky to have someone who will drive me three hours to spend a mere 10 minutes with someone very missed. It is exactly what I needed, and I feel refreshed and replenished just from that little visit. It was perfect timing -- last weekend was 5 years ago that I lost my dad. It feels like yesterday, everyday..but I can't believe how time flies by. I was 19 when I lost him and I feel like I've come so far but half it's half a decade later, and it still feels like yesterday. I know that a lot of good things are going to come my way, and I only have him to thank for that. After the two night trip to Napanee, we spent the next day at the pool. I clearly hadn't been outside since Winter and burnt to a crisp! I'm still peeling. Needless to say, we didn't do to much to finish off the week. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't talk about it much, but it what drives me to sit at a sewing machine and sew. It's a form of therapy, and it gets my mind off of things. I've found something that takes me away for a little bit, away from negativity. Even if I didn't succeed in selling my products to other people, I'm still happy with just making things. </div>

</div>
<div align="center">
It's Friday, the best day of the week. What makes it even better is that I am officially on holidays. I'm keeping it cool but inside I'm going crazy. This is where I insert something about slaving away at a desk in a stuffy office for 8 hours a day. I'm looking forward of a week of not knowing what I'm doing at all. Normally it would be camping, but in an effort to possibly save some money, my boyfriend and I have chose to keep it to some day trips here and there. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Speaking of boyfriend..do you ever slip on his t-shirts just because they are so comfortable and worn in? This is where my next project came into play. I loaded up on old t-shirts and turned them into concert rocking, beach wearing, night-time slummin, crop top tanks. The perfect way to add a little something extra to a plain old boring top, is to add a bright pocket!</div>

What would you pair this with? I think I'd do something a little edgy, and pair it with some leather skinny pants and some killer booty heels. And of course, accessorizing is everything. I'd finish it off with a pop of colour in a cross body bag and some layered bracelets.</div>

Why hello there everyone. You should know that I'm writing this post while listening to some old school Usher..and it's amazing, I kind of forgot. I'm sorry I've been a little M.I.A but I've been so busy! But I guess that's a good thing! I recently did a little collaboration with the one and only <a href="http://www.caraloren.com/" target="_blank">Cara Loren</a>. The skirt turned out amazing, and she is such an amazing person to work with. You can see the outfit post <a href="http://www.caraloren.com/search?updated-max=2013-04-25T23:52:00-06:00&max-results=7" target="_blank">here</a>, but I'm warning you..you might be reading for a long time!</div>

Yoga has been in my life for a couple of years now, and I was attending classes regularly. Life kind of got in the way, but I've kept up with my <strong>downward dog a day. </strong>Seriously, it's probably my favourite move. I have a horrible back and neck and everything stretches right out when I do one and I feel like I can breathe again. Try it out! </div>

On another note, I'm so happy to be gearing up to coach at my old stomping grounds. I'll be sqeezing back into the spandex and lacing up those speedskates once more. I'm excited, and it's a great oppourtunity to get back into shape again. I may have started running so that I don't get my ass kicked by the kids. I'm not sure where I thought I would have time for coaching though, but I like to keep busy.</div>

The weather this week here has been amazing, and it's putting everyone in such a good mood. It's BBQ weather and even though I'm a vegetarian there is nothing like the smell of a steak cooking away. Weird, I know. We seriously haven't had a crappy day, in <em>days</em>. Here are some more photos from the amazing photo shoot I had with Britt!! Sorry I'm so late in sharing them.</div>

All I can say is WOW and thank you soo much for all the positive feedback. This first week has been overwhelming. I've said goodbye to a few pieces already, 2 of them going to NORWAY. I am also working with a bride-to-be making skirts for her wedding party. I can't wait! Seriously, it's been amazing. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I wanted to show off these amazing stickers I came across yesterday. Etsy never ceases to amaze me with all the things that people think of. It's called <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/huetoo?ref=seller_info" target="_blank">huetoo</a>. It's digital downloads! For $3.00 you get 2 sheets of stickers, available for immediate download. So after you buy them, you have them forever! All you need is sticker paper, which you can find at Staples. I think they go perfectly with my Thank You tags!<br />

One of my favourite quotes on this dreary Spring evening;</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
"Life is too short; grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Laugh when you can, apologize when you should and let go of what you cant change. Love deeply and forgive quickly, take chances, give everything and have no regrets. Life is too short to be unhappy. You have to take the good with the bad smile when your sad, love what you got and always remember what you had. Always forgive, never forget "</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
In my last post, I introduced my next adventure: Shirley. I've learned a lot in my life, maybe that's why I can't settle on just one thing. I love creating, and I feel it's a way to escape from my own head sometimes, as I'm sure many artists can agree. I wanted Shirley to encompass what I've learned in life, and maybe influence someone to do what they love as well. I've created pieces that are flowy, free and simple, they've been inspired by the women in my life. The women who can make even a blank canvas look amazing. I want the women who buy my clothing to feel beautiful inside and out, dancing through fields with flowers in their hair! The best part about my line is that you can wear it everywhere. Besides the fact that maxi dresses are huge this season, they are great for work with a blazer and perfect for a weekend date, or walking through the market. Here are a couple of my favourite looks!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<strong>A boho maxi dress</strong>. Elastic at the bust and again at the waist, ensuring that it will stay put! You can wear it with the elastic fit up near your bust or you can pull it down towards your waist, for a more "greek goddess" look! A perfect canvas for a statement necklace.</div>

<br />
Another huge fashion trend this season is a maxi skirt. So easy to dress up or down, and great for the office! Pair it with a white tank for a relaxed, fresh look.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s2gWAqOUjIM/UWS7XhP5KLI/AAAAAAAABD8/AhmlR0WqLwg/s1600/IMG_20130403_172159.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s2gWAqOUjIM/UWS7XhP5KLI/AAAAAAAABD8/AhmlR0WqLwg/s320/IMG_20130403_172159.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think that this next outfit is a great alternative to the bridesmaid "dress". Many brides are taking this route this season! A white tank, paired with a lovely skirt. An idea like this is great, because the bridesmaids can wear each piece again! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IIs9tBjTFO4/UWS-VAMnOMI/AAAAAAAABEI/c5_HMBOJAE8/s1600/il_570xN_443440328_iljq.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IIs9tBjTFO4/UWS-VAMnOMI/AAAAAAAABEI/c5_HMBOJAE8/s320/il_570xN_443440328_iljq.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My personal favourite is this next piece. Also, another great idea for the boho bride and her bridesmaid's dresses. It's flowy and cool and your best girls can dance the night away. It's also perfect for pretty much everything else! </div>

<br />
It's time for my next adventure. It's time for SHIRLEY!!!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
You're probably thinking "what the heck??" Shirley is my middle name. Yep, I was named after my g-ma. You should know how much time I put into trying to think of a name. I've decided it definitely isn't my forte. Something just felt right about Shirley, it was simple, just like the line.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
If you read my blog, THANK YOU. However, you may of read in one blog post that making clothing wasn't something I had really been interested in. Well, let me tell you..that has <strong>changed</strong>..360 degrees BABY. So, I want to introduce you to Shirley. It's a clothing line that is comfortable and simple. Everyone loves a piece of clothing that they can just throw on..whether heading to the the grocery store, rocking out at a concert, or dressing up for a wedding. Shirley is long maxi dresses, maxi skirts, bandeaus, lace and short dresses. They slip on, no hassle. What's easier than that? </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Starting Saturday my shop will be open! Starting Monday I will be posting Instagram outfits of my pieces. Follow me @ hasinspiration to see these and of course be in the know for upcoming pieces! I've already got hints of many pieces on there!<br />
<br />
Thank you for your continued support! I may or may not be kind of nervous to open up shop on Saturday.<br />

<br />
When I first started my shop, it had a very different feel to it. I mostly sold eReader covers and pillows. I even threw the odd piece of jewellery in there. My shop continually changed for months until I found out more and more about owning your own business. Things still change, and I am constantly influenced by so much around me. I spend hours learning as much as I can, whether it be from other blogs or fellow Etsy shops. I started my Etsy shop with the intention of filling my spare time making things that people will want. It probably started with the first thing that I sold -- I knew at that moment I wanted to do this. The world of handmade has officially <strong>consumed</strong> me. I think it and breathe it, always looking for new fabric and new ideas. It challenges me, sometimes disappoints me but I've never been so sure of something. It makes me crave the simple life, a life of taking time to myself. To do things when and how I want to do them.<br />
<br />
In the spirit of always learning something, that is exactly what I did when it came to pillows. I did some research and thought that I would offer people the inserts along with the case, because only some -- if any, actually did offer the inserts. I quickly figured out why no one did that..duh. It cost me a FORTUNE to package and ship them. Of course my first order was to Australia, silly me.<br />
<br />
I've always loved the concept of a decorative pillow. It either finishes off a room just right, bringing all your colours in together OR it adds something to a room without having to change anything. It's easier then having to paint all the walls, and cheaper then buying an expensive new bed spread. It gives you the ability to add colour without hanging pictures. It's a great option if you are renting and can't put holes in the walls to hang things, or if you're stuck in a dorm room with ugly grey cylinder block walls.<br />

I love the last one. It would have to be my favourite. If I didn't live with a man, this would probably be on my bed. Each pillows brings a different feel to the room.<br />
<br />
I'm working on some exciting things! Stay tuned.<br />

HI! It's been awhile -- sorry about that. I've been so busy and sick...it's ridiculous! It's Monday morning and I think by now, you all know how I feel about Monday mornings. The second the alarm went off, I decided I would be taking a nap when I got off work today. It was pitch black (thanks <strong>time change</strong>..) and I blinded myself when I stabbed my eyeball with the mascara wand. Next thing you know, I have black running down my face, I'm blind in one eye and I'm attempting to find the dress pants I neglected to wash this weekend. Can we just fast forward to Tuesday morning? It always seems to go a little smoother.</div>

We celebrated some birthdays on Saturday. My body doesn't seem to recover quite as fast anymore. This probably explains my morning and definately explains why I didn't do laundry yesterday.</div>

Sometimes, you just have to <strong>let loose and skip laundry day.</strong></div>

So since Sunday was a major lazy day, I spent some quality time with my sewing machine. I wanted to show you what I've been up to lately. I've been obsessed with bright colours. Maybe it's the upcoming warmer weather.</div>

I'm still on holidays and I never want to go back. I came up to my sewing room to put some labels on some things that I've made and long story short...I think I fell in love with this piece I've created. I couldn't even wait until I shot it, I am dying to share it!! </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Last summer, I think I look<em> endlessly</em> for a maxi dress. I wanted a simple, black, cotton maxi dress. I couldn't find one anywhere! To this day, I still don't have one. I came across this fabric a few months ago and I fell in love with its light airy pattern. It has so many colours yet isn't overpowering or hard on the eyes. When I saw this fabric, I knew <strong>exactly</strong> what it had to become.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
So here it is, the perfect maxi dress.</div>

This week was<strong> crazy</strong>.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I'd like to start by thanking everyone for all the lovely birthday wishes. I'm officially 24 years old...and yes OLD. I only say that because I feel old. That's what I tell my Chiropractor at least. I don't know what the hell I do in my sleep, but I somehow managed to get a nice little neck injury. Maybe it happened during that nightmare where I was running away and battling blue alien zombie things. Thanks for that Walking Dead.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
So my last post was about how excited I was to be taking some time off and heading to Niagara Falls to gamble my life away. However... I'm currently sitting in my computer chair, at home. On Friday my man wanted to take me for dinner. As us Canadians are aware, we got hit HARD with a lot of snow on Friday. We slid right through a red on the way to dinner and got into a car accident :( So that axed our dinner plans, and our plans to go away this week. We are both okay, but I wouldn't say the car is! I decided to still take my holidays, which I am enjoying just a little bit too much. I could get used to this...</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
This means that I couldn't go get all that <strong>amazing fabric</strong> I was going on about. So, I hit up the local fabric store and found a couple of things I liked..</div>
<div align="center">

<br />
<br />
<div align="center">
But I wasn't satisfied. So I visited the trusty Etsy shop of<a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/SewFineFabric" target="_blank"> SewFineFabric</a> and like always, found <em>exactly </em>what I was looking for.</div>

It looks like I'm going to have a snowy birthday. Although I've been inspired by all the upcoming Spring fashions and trends, it looks like we are going to have to hang in there just a little bit longer here in Canada! We can't get to far ahead of ourselves!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I'm terrible at blogging, I want to blog when I have something to talk about, I don't want to just come on here and <strong>talk about nothing</strong>.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I often talk about what inspires me. I mean, this is HASinspiration. It's got to come from <em>somewhere</em>. I've decided I'm sick of Winter. Normally I love it, but I like Winter when there is actually snow. I'm ready for the early Spring mornings, the sun, and for the trees to get their leaves back.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
All of these amazing Spring outfits I've come across have really got me in the mood for some warmer weather. They've lit the fire under my butt and lets just say -- I'm working <em>really hard </em>on something special! These cute outfits have had major influence on the products I'm sewing and the fabrics I'm using.</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">

<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<strong>Polka dots</strong>. I've always like them, and especially in navy. It's my go-to colour! It's just..fun!</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<strong>Bright colours</strong>. I've always been a neutral girl. The one who wears mostly greys, blacks and whites. Lately though, I've strayed away from that. All of these amazing colours, even combined just grab my attention! I'm dying to pick out some great fabric.</div>
<div align="center">

<strong>Again..it's navy</strong> but in a long, flowy maxi type skirt. This look has been a major inspiration. It's so easy and can be dressed up or down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With that being said, I'm visiting the States in only a matter of days for some much needed R&R with my man. That's right...3 days off work to eat, gamble ,shop and of course...induldge in a drink, or two ;) The fact that I can drink for free while I'm pulling on that lever of a slot machine, may have had a deciding factor in our location for a little getaway.</div>
<strong>Don't judge me</strong>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope to come back with yards and yards of amazing fabric. I've got a lot of great things on the way, you won't want to miss it!</div>

For all these views this past week. I know someone out there is reading this!</div>
<div align="center">

It's Sunday. The second worst day of the week for me. Just because it means tomorrow is <em>Monday. </em>The first worst day of the week. Does anyone actually like Mondays?</div>
<div align="center">

My best friend was off sick for a couple of days this past week. I was happy when she asked if I'd want to come over, and she would make me lunch. She has 3 dogs, one of them being a Great Dane. Due to a recent loss of my second best friend, Millie, I had pretty much sworn off ever really wanting to love another dog. I only got a short 4 years with Mil. One thing I am certain of, is that if I ever got a dog again, it would be SMALL. I like small dogs, and they fit better on your lap. Well, I quickly learned this week that it doesn't matter what size of dog it is, it will still try to sit on your lap. I loved it, and it is seriously changing my opinion on owning a Great Dane one day. He has such a physical presence and you can't help but watch it move around the house. It's so big, that it's like another human. Keep in mind, the dog I owned, was as big as this ones head. </div>

And this one, a leather look clutch. This button just made it complete, and has lots of room to hold all those things you need for a night out in the city.</div>

<strong>Today was cold</strong>, to say the least. If you were the lovely lady in these pictures you could argue that it wasn't cold, it was freezing. Shortly after setting up, bums started to go numb and fingers started getting the early stage of frost bite.</div>

What are best friends for? I thanked her over and over and promised up and down that I would buy her anything she needed if she ends up sick. Between dark clouds and thick squalls, we ended up with some great shots!</div>

Stay tuned for some more great shots coming up this week. One of my resolutions for 2013 was to get my Etsy shop a little more organized and today I wanted to take full advantage of the natural light, even if it was freezing. </div>

I also had the chance to finish up a skirt that I had started and clearly gotten sidetracked. This piece is great for the spring and into the summer. It's soft and so easy to wear.</div>
