5 things for Monday

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 released July 15th and made $168.6 million dollars during it’s opening weekend. This broke The Dark Knight opening record which was $158 million and went on to gross $588 million total.

 

 

What I want

 

Christian Louboutin Pony Leopard 120 Peep-Toe Pumps

What I found instead

Lorane 39 Leopard Peep Toe Pump
At a whopping price difference of $900 for the Louboutin’s versus $29 for the Lorane’s I’m a very happy camper right now.

 

 

This is my newest DIY project. My mom picked this up for me at a thrift store for about $10 bucks. The wicker is in good condition, it’s just cosmetically damaged. I plan to sand off the loose paint and then white wash in a pale pink. Then wipe it off so the white shows through and the pale pink only adheres to the wicker underneath.

 

 

This weekend I jumped head first into Lorelei James by reading numbers 10 and 11 in her Rough Riders series.

Cowgirls Don't Cry (Rough Riders, #10)

and

Chasin' Eight (Rough Riders, #11)

 

Lord have mercy. Hot alpha cowboys, bold take no crap cowgirls and some seriously hot bed play. I’m slowly working my way backwords through her backlist. :)

WTH Wednesday Regretsy-when DIY meets WTH

I love Regretsy. Seriously. I could read this site all day. Hereare some of my personal favs.


I don’t even what to know.


More like, “You be strange. I call men in white coats.”


Your going to feel something wearing this rock ring all right. And probably hear a few things too.


What? I can’t hear you. I look stupendous? Why thank you.


Some things should never be made. Never.


Fashion be damned! I want these boots.


Once more Steampunk is violated.

Stimulation Saturday

A site that makes me smile, laugh, and often snort milk out my nose is Regretsy. Regretsy is a site devoted to finding and posting about some of the more unique items on esty. In fact, April Winchell, has written a book about the whole experience. Titiled Regretsy-Where DIY Meets WTH; this book catologs the best of the worst so to speak. Goes on sale 4/6/2010. Here are some of my favs. I am the holder of the golden poo. Oh noes. Because nothing says Easter like a decapitated bleeding lamb cake. OoooO, I'll take a Always with Wings & a Preparation H please. Go visit April and prepared to be dazzled by the number of people who are amazing talented with a remarkable lack of taste.
