layout for the day

I was inspired by June's Scrapjack, so I created this to include in the Hawaii album I am making for my friend. I am pretty darn sure that I will be re-creating this to be framed in my new apt. hee heee

I hope paint splatters never go out of style... because, seriously??!! they are too much fun. I think they are seriously my favorite embellishment.. or "add-on" if you will.

what projects have you guys been working on?

So, I have decided that I am way OVER driving 40 min (one way) on 270 every day for work. And I just plain hate 270. (they are working on widening the road...but whatevs) It's time for me to be closer to work and closer to the places I like to frequent on my free time.

I am pretty sure I have it narrowed down to these apartments. They are located on Delmar, near 170. Great location. West of the loop. I am on the outskirts of Clayton and Brentwood. A couple of miles from The Galleria. And 5mi from work.

I will have 2 bedrooms (one bedroom to use for a guestbedroom and art room). The updated units have real wood plank flooring, new appliances and countertops. I will be on the first floor, of course, for boo. They have a couple of dog parks in the complex.

I will have a dishwasher (yay! I currently don't have one). There is a gym and pool, as well.

 I can't wait to move! I will be moving at the end of next month.

Here are some photos of the demo / "show" apartment.

Kitchen is not an open area like my current apt. however, the area under the window to the left will be perfect for a serving station or buffet. 

I think I will put my dining table like they did their demo. 

What do you think?

"You are a caricature of yourself"

Still working on the Hawaii album

Made this delicious dessert. My girl, Mere, found it on Pinterest.  If you click my Pinterest button to the right, you can find the recipe under Berried Treasure on "get in my belly" board. 

I have been using my cameo alot!!

Wednesday was happy hour at Copia Wine Garden. 

I use Meaningful Beauty. Guthy-Renker started another line called Sheer Cover. They sent these VIP deals to get a starter kit for $10. I love it! It's what's on my face below.  

Friday night was so much fun. I haven't gone out on a while. It was long overdue. 

Met new friends. 

Took some fun photos. 

One of my fave STL hotspots: Moonrise rooftop lounge. 

Sat was spent being lazy and watching Mad Men. 

Right now, I need to go to sleep. Haha. Then maybe some more creativeness.  

Oh! And I plan on moving end of next month. .., closer to work. I think I have settled on which apartment.   I will try to post pics of the demo apartment tomorrow.
