Craft Haul!

I love when twists are added to days, like everyday I picked my little sister up and dropped her off with my mom. However, instead of saying our goodbyes we decided to make the most of what was left of the day by going craft shopping!! We went to all of the craft stores in our area (the day ending not quite how we were hoping but still!) 

There was such a great sale going on! 50-70% off! I was able to get all of this stuff for $30!! 

Instamemories : November

Another month gone, wow, time really does fly! November was great, and congrats to anyone who participated in Movember. November was filled with leaves, hot cocoa and a reminder that it's almost Christmas (and that I have a lot of stuff to get done!) So this month consisted of (from top left to bottom right) 1. Thrifting (and finding this adorable Tom Thumb typewriter) 2. Soaking up all the suns warmth while playing tag with my little sister during Thanksgiving break. 3. OhSo's first ever DIY! 4. Starbucks with friends. I hope you all have a very safe and stress-free holiday. 

Semi Studio Tour

 Every crafter has to have a space that is just for them, to be inspired, to work in or to just relax. When looking for houses I knew I had to have a studio (and so did Mack). It has been "in progress" since we moved in, and I'm sure I'll never be fully done with it. So here is a small glimpse at OhSo Studio!

                

(No visit to my studio is complete without Canary trying to get into stuff. )

P.S. - with the holidays getting closer and closer I may not be able to post as much (sad face) BUT! I will try to post more from my phone and take some pictures every now and then of the amazing inspiration that has been coming my way! 

Polyvore!

Hey everyone, just updating you all that OhSo has a Polyvore. Anyone else on it? I'm still trying to get the hang of it but it's super fun and addictive! Check it out : http://ohsoblogger.polyvore.com/

What you love.

I've taken many deep breaths over the past few days. The Wall is a very hard thing to conquer. I decided to take some time to just relax (something i don't think I've done since our Disney vacation). So after several walks around the neighborhood, and the destruction of several home decorating magazines, the Wall has just barely been knocked down.

School is out. Forever.

When new schools are built old ones are simply thrown away. So is the case with Sue Reynolds Elementary. Upon entering the grounds overrun with grass and graffiti. Archaic desks, tables and chairs fill the halls where children once learned and though the brand new school is less than a mile down the road, I find this piece of history way more interesting. 

Success!

First Official sale on Etsy! I couldn't be happier, She bought the "Tinker Toes" Tinker Bell inspired earrings. Along with her purchase, she will be receiving a free gift. 

Hint. A new OhSo product looks a lot like the last photo! 

Inspiration: Kawaii

Since starting this blog I've tried to expand on things to create. Beginning with Photography, going to sewing, pillow design, and now jewelry-making. One of my best ways to get inspired is by looking at things I'd like to make. Although these are not jewelry, they are something I get plenty of inspiration off of. Kawaii is amazing to me, for multiple reasons, obviously I'm a girl who loves cute things! But also because eventually I would love to start creating Kawaii-like things. So enjoy the pictures I have posted!

Caution! Will Melt Heart.

My sister recently rescued a kitten she found at her apartment complex. She was severely injured, but the vet had said she would be fine within a few weeks. Which means, New kitten!!! She has won over all of our hearts with her preciousness. So, I proudly present... Bonnie.

A Day at the Garden.

As I posted in http://theohsoblog.blogspot.com/2012/07/places-forgotten.html , I have the biggest fascination with places that people have seemed to forget about. Today I was lucky to go back to a place I visited a few years ago and snap some much needed, better shots. Here are a few of my favorites.
