where has the time gone?  

it's already February!

I had today off- it felt so nice being able to do normal things around the house.

made some thangs to go around the house, did some laundry, vacummed, dusted my shelves...

.

all while listening to the smith's

it was great.

I made a garland.

And then I hung it above my bed.

folded ben's shirts.  stacked them all pretty- like.

I'm still working on Hella Haus' website.  It's a bit hard- I'm not so very good at these things- I think I rather just have some techy-savy friend set me up with something nice and clean, anyone want to volunteer??

We need to do some powder coating on our first strong piece and we are very excited about sharing it.  

.....

And we went out to Tiger Mountain to take our profile shots...it was FREEZING out.  

Doesn't look like it here, but it was.  trust..

28

just turned 28 recently.

it's a rad age, if you haven't tried it.  you should.  I'm 4 days into it and I'm feeling like a superstar.

.

I FINALLY set up my itty bitty still life studio downstairs-  it's an incredibly small space to be taking pictures, but it works. 

for now, at least.

..

 Just recently got my haircut.  and dyed darker.  

This is my mom to the right.  Taken in the 70's, somewhere near Queens, New York.

 she is my inspiration for my haircut. 

And, this is me and my guy.

28 really makes you feel like a superstar ..

thanks, willy.

This moonball is clever.

I have this obsession with balloons, balls, rounded, spherical objects and things.  

It's kind of all over my brain right now.  Yours?

okee.

good night, Monday.

See you later, Tuesday.

it's been 1 month, I'm sorry

Speaking of shoes- Totokaelo (snapshot of store above) just opened up there new storefront in Capitol Hill.  They were located in Belltown before, but the new layout is pretty sharp- extremely spacious, I walked in there and thought I had just entered a spaceship.  I first noticed their shoe display, there seems to be this trend going on... Another semi-new shop located in the same neighborhood, Kaledoscopic Vision has a very similar-almost identical shoe display-although, I have to say they have been open a bit longer and let me tell you, those girls know how to party!  They were servin up the tequila on cinco de mayo- and collecting a random, song-request...it was fantastic + the shop is pretty awesome, lots of treasures in there.  Capitol Hill was in need of a place like this- affordable vintage-finds instead of walking into Value Village restraining yourself from the horrible b.o. smell.  This type of shoe-shop display, contemporary, clinical, fictive world-inspired retail interior has been around for a while.  Remember, contemporary art photographer, Andreas Gursky's, Prada I in 1996?  Check it, below.

I love love love- the eyeliner on the outside of your bottom lashline as oppose to the inside of your lashline.  oh, her hair is pretty legit too.
