I'm a stay at home mother of four, with a passion for all things vintage,pink,crafty and girly.I am addicted to ebay. I love vintage fabric, quilts and pottery. I love being crafty, sometimes I knit, sew, scrapbook, make jewelry, quilt,make altered art or whatever other crafty thing that comes my way. I love to go to estate sales, flea markets and thrift stores, you know there is always something fabulous waiting to go home with you. I LOVE my kids, I have three girls and a boy. My girls are 13 and 10, almost 1 and my son is 3. I love traveling, but hate packing, because I might forget something so I ALWAYS over pack. My husband is the best, he puts up with my messy ways and he lets me have pink in just about every room of the house. He also will go to estate sales and go shopping with me. I love to eat great food! I have been taking tap and ballet for the last 5years, boy is it hard to learn to dance in your 30's, I love it!
Vintage linens & fabric in lovely colors and great vintage patterns. More on Fabric- I love Amy Butler, Kaffe,30-40's repros, Shabby chic style, I like cutsie fabric if it has a vintage feel.
**** I really need a new pair of rubber gloves for dish washing and I love the kind with the ruffles at the cuffs:Pink, green,Aqua, black and white!****** Vintage sheets are my newest obsession! love them all! Vintage sewing notions. Vintage Millnery flowers and trim. Vintage Emphemera. Great yarn-natural fibers in pretty colors. Haven't had any time to scrapbook, and I have plenty of supplies right now. :)
Vintage inspired crafts. Pink goodies. Vintage inspired items. Vintage or vintage inspired holiday items. You get it, i like vintage:)I love jewelry and accessories especially if it is VINTAGE-HEHE
I love good milk chocolate.
Bubble bath that smells fruity not floral or strong. Anything from the Martha Stewart line a Michaels. I love glitter and sparkle. I love sephora. I love sour candy.
I love roses, especially vintage pictures or fabric, or vintage plates with roses on them. I love polk a dots.I like Cherries and strawberries. I can always use candles that are not strong smelling. I really like the stuffies I have seen on peoples blogs, and would love one. My 10year old daughter has a vintage ceramic dog collection and would love another to add to her collection, the only requirement is: it needs to have a cute face and be vintage.I collect milk glass, I really am concentrating on the hobnail patterns or any pink milk glass. I am looking for quality items that you can not get at any large chain store. My kids like to drink tea, (caffine free). I like skull stuff as long as it is cute and not scary, my 10yr old daughter loves skulls and I would love a cute skull embellished onesie for my son 18mo size. I would love to receive a garland- penate style, see: http://simplymein.typepad.com/photos/banners/index.html
I love to watch DIY and HGTV shows, its a great way to get ideas. I love knitty gritty, grey's anatomy,csi,I love lucy,survivor,dancing with the stars, and many more. However I am still so very sad that Gilmore Girls is over:(
I love Janet Evanovich books. I love Mauve Binchey books. I read every night, I cant fall asleep without it, so i read a wide variety of books, from girly fluff to murder mysterys to books my husband has read and sticks on my side of the bed.
Knitting is high on my list because you can take it everywhere, which is fabulous when you are waiting an hour to see the Dr. I love to sew, paper crafts, jewelry making,& altered art. I have been sewing since I was in 7th grade.
Nothing super modern. Nothing too 70ish or 80's . Cheap yarn and no fun fur. Anything Asian except cute fabric. No white chocolate. I don't drink coffee or tea. No Disney.Black Licorice. Anything that smells really strong as I get headaches.No dollar store or walmart items.
As You have read, I love Pink, all shades, but my favorite is pale pink(no Neon). I love soft greens, blues, aqua pastel and dark. Robin's egg Blue. I have been really into chocolate brown and aqua or pink combos. I also love red as long as it is a blue red not orangy red. Pale yellow, French Blue with white.I like black and white combos also. Not crazy about earth tones,neons, and dark purple. My house has pink in every room except for my sons room which is shades of blue and tan, with a touch of red.
I decorate for just about every holiday, and I would love any and all vintage holiday items.
I put two trees up each year, one I get flocked pink and the ornaments are all, pink, lavender,light blue silver, gold and as many vintage as possible. The other tree is a regular green tree and it is traditional, mainly vintage & handmade in reds, greens, golds.
