sadly, it's not available until jan. 8. but, what do you know, that's just in time for my birthday...

i am need of some new bedding. stat. it just occurred to me i haven't gotten new sheets since my last bed, when i downsized to a double. so yes, all of my sheet sets are too big, and i haven't even given them a second thought.
and, right now, i'm using a quilt i've had since FOURTH GRADE. i love it to pieces, and it's more of my cuddle quilt when i'm sick but somehow, it's found a permanent place on my bed these last couple months. DEAR GOD, right?
so... clearly, i've got some work to do. and, my sweet joe's offered to repaint my bed. it's this bed (forgive the image... really, the only one i could find). glossy black.
i. love. my. bed. and i love sleeping in it. so it kills me i've neglected making it an awesome place lately.
so, where do i start? i'm eyeing these two duvets that i absolutely love. strangely, they're way frillier than i am used to, but they just look oh so right...
but, parachute or pin-tuck?


over the weekend kelly and i headed over to the girlie show, which was really nothing short of incredible. i kind of wish i had planned better (kelly — damn her — inspires that) so i could have gotten my christmas shopping out of the way.
i'm also really wishing i'd at least picked up a print of the top robot man. i loved every single piece from this artist.
i swear this calendar madness is almost up. almost*.
i caught a glimpse of this at heysusy. you love it too.
*stay tuned for one more awesome giveaway. and a calendar post or two. thank you to all of you who joined the calendar swap. we ended up with 88 participants... including some readers in switzerland, spain, chile, australia and israel. kelly and i were both pretty excited about the turnout. and i am excited to get a calendar shipped off to my swapmate alissa who has a pretty awesome blog.
there are no words...

yes. i am alive.
i don't know if this card quite reflects my sentiments right now, but it's pretty.
regular posting will resume soon. don't hate me!

who posted about this awesome skirt yesterday? actually, i saw the post yesterday but since i am 1,500 blog posts behind (seriously), who knows when it was actually written.
ok, i stopped being lazy and looked: helen hearts, of course.
ANYWAY. the skirt. wow.
trying to convince myself i won't need these for halloween. (or, let's face it... everyday macabre wear.)


really excited to launch the second giveaway to coincide with the great calendar swap of oh-ten... from oddball press!
last year i featured their '09 calendar in my calendar roundup and was more than excited to have received it as a gift for christmas. so i was especially delighted to see they were carrying on the same theme this year. i love spying something new every time i look at mine.
now, don't you want to win one?
leave an e-mail address in the comments for a chance. good through the end of the day friday.
and thank you so much, oddball press!
so i really lost track of time, and well, monday's over. ... which means it's time to announce the winner of the first (yes, first) calendar giveaway of the year.
the winner of the 2010 delphine letterpress calendar is...
jenni has her head in the clouds of object of my obsession. congratulations, jenni, and thank you all for participating. stay tuned for more giveaway fun here and at design crush.
and BIG THANKS to delphine for offering such a beautiful calendar. really. beautiful.
