I like this

I saw it posted on a small market's Facebook wall last night. There is no story about how they acquired it, but   they did caption it with this "this is a great poster that was used between 1914 and 1918 by the US Food Administration. Some very good suggestions for our supersize culture nearly a century later." I just love it.

I kind of feel like I might want to build some awesome kitchen decor around it. What do you think?

Four Heart Friday: Bird Edition

I have decided that THE 'Internets' are a right weird place.
You can start out looking for a recipe for marinara sauce and end up pinning beautiful dresses to Pinterest.
Weird
It's like that game where you can connect everything back to Kevin Bacon somehow, marinara sauce is somehow connected to bird dresses on Pinterest in 6 pages or less.
WEIRD

I decided that birds would be a good theme this week, because I seem to be in LOVE with them lately, mostly Owls (I think it's a pretty common theme out there), but other birds are cool too...

chloesvintagejewelry brings years of experience to her designs and collections. There is an eclectic and fun mix to everything in her shop. I seriously {heart} this rad owl neclace. It's on my wish list from now until whenever the hubbs figures out what a wishlist is.

RoseandRaven's jewelry makes me want to get dressed up! How sweet is this little bird? It would be quite a trip over to Norfolk, UK to grab one of these in person, but I would love to see her studio. the prices are just right and shipping is affordable to the US.

When I got married, I was in love with the 'woodland' theme. Our venue was changed just 5 weeks before the wedding and our silver and blue theme just did not go with the ski lodge that I chose for our replacement venue. I bought a whole set of hair facinators, like this one from serenitycrystal for my bridal party, they gave us that something special I wanted. Small enough to be feminine, but big enough to be noticed (and not in a "your hat is too big" sort of way).

SimpleShapes out of NJ, has some delightful designs for every room in the house. I wish I had an accent wall big enough for one of these beautiful trees. I'm in love iwth how simple they seem to be to install and change out. I like the idea of being able to change the feel of the room without all the hassle of painting.

Four Heart Friday: Pinterest Edition

I know that all across the interwebs there is a buzz about Pinterest. I told myself I was NOT going to get involved with ANOTHER site. I would resist the urge to sign up. I would hide from it at all costs. I would NEVER click those little P's on everyone's pages.

I failed.
I clicked.

and I am HOOKED.
Those of you already on Pinterest know that it would be IMPOSSIBLE not to fall in love with the lovely images. It's like We Heart It ONLY BETTER.

Why is it better?

First and foremost I think the absolute best part is that the site automatically grabs a link to the source and attached it to the photo you are pinning making it easy to share the things you love but also build an online catalog of the places you love to visit.

This comes in especially handy when you see a really awesome project or tutorial that you want to make. You know that HUGE drop down menu in your browser called *Favorites? Well mine is OVERFLOWING with links to websites that I have NO idea why I favorited them to begin with.

Caedlighe Paolucci Pins

I'm sure I meant to make something or there was a helpful article I wanted to read, my biggest problem is that I favorited the site from the main blog address, not the specific post I wanted to look at later. Pinterest solves this problem by linking directly to the post the photo is listed in.

LOVE IT.

Now, some of you may be thinking how can I get in on this magical place, it's invite only? This is true and not true at the same time. Since I didn't know anyone on Pinterest personally when I wanted to join I clicked the join button and got on the waiting list. Within 2 hours I had an invite in my inbox and I was all registered and ready to go. The waiting list warns it can take a few weeks, but for me it was very fast.

So, if you want to get in on it, I can send you an invite (first some first serve they only give you a limited amount) if you post a comment below, or you can go click that join button and see how long the wait list takes for you.

If you want to see my pins click the big 'ole P over there in the sidebar. When you get there I would love it if you would follow my boards (if you like them) and leave a comment below if you have an account that I can follow!
