Story of my life. I start a project with the best of intentions. I buy all the supplies, set time aside, and then something happens to hinder the completion.
Ever since I saw this beautiful wreath on my friend Marek's blog, I've been itching to make it. You'll notice that she posted about it in March, I started mine in...April. And it is still sitting in my room, unfinished. My problem is that I ran out of pages. (I had a brilliant idea to use my favorite book, Great Gatsby, alas, the book was not big enough to complete the wreath).
I vow to finish this by the end of June. It's just too neat to sit, unfinished, any longer. Pictures to be posted as soon as it is complete.

Summer Delight
So, while browsing one of my FAVORITE blogs today, i was struck by this image. Delicious looking, right? Okay, so I had to look at the post that contained the origins of this yummy treat and where I could find more like it. I searched the post to the link for this mysterious "Sweet Paul," and low and behold, I found it.
I immediately clicked and this is what I found, the Sweet Paul Summer Magazine. I have already printed four spreads including: salads, cakes, soda fountain treats and garden fresh dishes. I'm in heaven. I will have to try one of these this weekend and report back on Monday on just how sweet Paul really is.
For now...I will dream of these recipes while I finish up my day.

A.D.D.
So, I have recently realized that I get REALLY distracted REALLY easily. Today's distraction came as a result of a post on one of my favorite blogs, How About Orange.
Jessica posts fun projects and ideas, and in her post about an emergency project she had to do to not forfeit her Groupon, she inadvertenly gave me a 15 minute project, that I didn't need to do, and added something else to a list of things I want to have in the house I don't own yet.
In browsing the Cafe Press website, I learned I could make my own shirts, mugs, and even my own coasters. I immediately clicked on the coasters, and found this little gem.
I LOVED this idea, but wasn't crazy about the graphic, so instead, I made my own.
I can't wait to order a set of these for my house. Some tweaking may come between now and then, but for now, I'm smitten.
