Here are a few peeks at a little last minute craftiness I put together for a “Grease” themed dinner we had this past weekend. Just a few family members joined us, but I had a great time setting things up. I plan on doing a full post later, but thought it would be fun to give you a peek.

Enjoy!

   
    
 

3 for Thursday

Welcome to 3 for Thursday – a place where I talk about what’s happening in my life right now. Not always sensical, but always me. Sometimes a random collection of things, but really what’s happening…this week in my life.

  

1. This necklace. I saw a tutorial for these adorable leather pendant necklaces on Delia Creates (here). I just had to try it! I love how it turned out. The perfect addition to a casual outfit. I definitely need to do more jewelry…I’ve missed it.

  
2. Enjoying the last bits of summer. Been hanging by the pool. Trying to find time to head out on the boat. Really just savoring all those summer things before Ashley heads back to school, the weather becomes cooler and the leaves start falling off the trees.

  
3. Teen room redo. Well, this one has been a long time coming. Ashley’s room has bee pink and green forever…and she’s not a pink and green kinda girl anymore. I think we’re headed for some blues. Can’t wait to get it done so she has a comfortable space.

What are you filling your days with?

A quick look at new weekend art, done with a few supplies and tools thrown into my pool bag. Loved being able to combine some family time with being creative!

The quote from e.e. Cummings really spoke to me. I’m finding my courage…but hope that I’ll never truly grow up!

 

 Some paper embellishments glued down and painted and marked. Love how these add depth and fun.

 The bird was a magazine cutout that I embellished.

 Enjoying the hand-lettering.

Have a good week!
