Autumn.

It's already been a busy few weeks and now October will be over before I know it. I have had a few jobs which is good. I am starting to get a tad stir crazy. Not that I don't have plenty to keep me busy but I definitely am more productive when I have a lot on my plate. So my latest apartment project as been my new chairs. I won a set of arm chairs on Ebay but they were in Pittsburg so my cousin Erin picked them up for me and we finally met last weekend to do the hand off. Now comes the task of redoing them. I found an amazing fabric at Mood a few months ago and have been itching to get it and get this project going. Mind you I have never recovered chairs before and when I first started ripping them apart I felt like I had bitten off more than I could chew. Now, I am almost done and they are going to be fabulous. My only major decision now is do I paint the wood pink, plum or go safe and do white. Still deciding so I am at a small stand still . Here are the shots of the progress so far.







Good Golly there were a TON of staples!! More to come!

Trapeze!!!!!

I finally used the gift certificate I got for Christmas from my little sis, Jill. She and I took Trapeze lessons when she came to visit me last year and she knows how much I love it. So last week I took another class and I am kicking myself for waiting so long. It is SO DARN FUN!!!! I have learned new tricks every time and they are getting so fancy and cool. Today I was so excited to try the set split. It just looks so circusy and trapezey! I know that neither one of those are words but that is the only way to describe it. I let me camera run and got a video that ,while it is crap lighting you can see my catch on my new trick LOVE IT!  Take a look.

Me and LD back in da day

My former assistant from Quiksilver was in town this week and she crashed at my place while she was here. It was fun to catch up and have girl time. As I was archive digging tonight I ran across this gem from one of our QS Waterman shoots. We always knew how to throw a little fun into an otherwise tedious project with our Mannies, Bryan and Chad. Oh the days.

Henri Bendel

I am in Love. It happened quite suddenly although I met him years ago. We rekindled our affair on Fashion's night out a few months back and now it's official, I am head over heels. :) His name is Henri and I love everything about him. I want to be a Bendel Girl for the rest of my life. All illustrations by Izak Zenou who does Incredibly beautiful work. Oh to be THAT talented....swoon.
