Room Planner from House to Home UK

Oh this is awesome. Its a room planner. You can add doors, windows, furniture as well as all the correct dimensions of those doors, windows, and furniture. It even lets you add a cat or a dog to your layout!
Right now it won't let me save my room that I created, which is awesome. Once I figure it out, i'll post the pic.

Backyard

If I had a backyard I would want this to be in it. I'd have all of you, all nine of you over for tea and biscuits. Pic from House to Home UK.

Iris Gets Saved.

We had a great time this weekend in Elkins Park with Sarah, Dan, Quinn, Iris, Wintson, Sam, and Luner Eclipse. Winston waited for use to arrive. He was very happy to see me.
Sarah made cupcakes and I frosted them with the pipping thingie. That was fun.

Strawberrys, yum.
Iris chillin.
Getting saved is not as fun as it sounds, she was happy afterwards though.

San Janero

The bright lights of San Janero called to me on Friday while I waited for my ride.

There were cute little painted crabs too.

Faux Fire.

I know its like, what 80 degrees out now and you're not nessesarily thinking about warmth and fire, BUT what a great idea this is. No fireplace? No problem, just paint the thing on your wall and crank the heat up and listen to that fire crackle.

Bird Mobile.

So, I finally assembled my bird mobile last night. I've had the little birdies made for a while. Boopi and I made them together one Friday night while we drank wine in the sweltering heat. (Friday was supposed to become make-stuff-night after that, but it has not) He cut all the fabric pieces while I sewed most of them(he tried his hand at sewing one, it was a special birdie). Then there was an assembly line of stuffing, closing up the tails, and attaching a string to their backs so they would be able to fly far, far away. It was a fun project, I'd probably do it again. I also thought it would be cool to enlarge the pattern, make the birds out of black fabric and then use them as accent pillows or something weird to be placed on the bookcase.
I got the pattern from Spool, which is an awesome site.
Here are my slightly blurry pics.

Dutchtub

This is a Dutchtub. It is portable and it is awesome. You can take it camping with you, skiing, to the mountains, to a skatepark, on a boat, to the rooftop, to the beach, to a weird hippie fest, on an ice fishing trip. Anywhere. The possibilities are endless.
