34/365.

remember when i shared this post with you? well, since that time i have been addicted to making pom poms. i went with a friend of mine to imagiknit here in the castro and picked up more yarn {holy sheesh, they have tons of gorgeous choices there!}. here’s what i’ve been up to…

day 34 photo challenge pom poms

i’m going to try and make some pom poms and then string them together to make a garland to hang. i’m looking for more bright and fun colors like yellow, orange, hot pink, etc. i somehow ended up with shades of blue and green.

have you made pom poms recently? they’re pretty fun, you should give it a try.

i spotted a little surprise up in the tree on my walk home today…

day 33 photo challenge

just one little lonely flower. i thought the tree on its own was quite pretty and then found even more beauty within the greenery. there’s always a little something great to be found if you just look.

i have a strong love for things that are related to packaging. this includes all sorts of goodies that can be used to wrap gifts as well as supplies needed to make that happen. you know like tape, ribbon, etc. two of my favorites are always on display in my apartment…

day 30 photo challenge

i have two cones of this striped string {in red & black} from the lovely bell’occhio {if you haven’t been in yet, you gotta check it out!} that i think are so pretty that i leave out so i can see them each day. and that pair of handmade scissors i got a few years back from castle in the air and i love it, too.

what things do you love that you leave out on display?
