starting small

i'm trying to SLOWLY get myself back into the design world. did i say SLOWLY? because i mean't S L O W L Y. i started small, here's a wall at my friend's home...



each tile is framed and stands out from the wall about an inch. you cannot see the chair rail that she already has slightly below it, and the paint color that we chose for the bottom half is the darker brown in the tile below. it looks very nice if i do say so myself.

five of MY favorite things...

...brenda tagged me, so here we go... (remembering that family, friends and pepsi are givens...)

1. paper/punches.
i put them together, because what good is a punch without paper? i'm obsessed with punches. (i'm obsessed with loads of things, but at least i can admit it :) i can't count how many i have. flourishs, hearts, trees, every size circle known to man, flowers of all varieties, snowflakes, squares, etc. etc. etc. what i don't own, i beg, steal and borrow from friends.


2. thunder & lightning storms.
i love them individually, but most especially together. i open my windows (if possible) to get the full effect of all the rumbling. i even love the smell of the wet concrete outside when the storm is over.

3. all things cinnamon.
i'm not exagerating either. EVERYTHING cinnamon. toothpaste, room scent, pencils (yup, got one!) toothpicks, atomic fire balls, hot tamales... if you love me you will give me cinnamon. :)


4. m&m's/hot tamales.
i have a special way i have to eat the m&m's, too. i told you i was obsessed. usually in two's or three's, it depends on how the colors add up when i pour out a handful. i have to eat the ugly colors first, brown, blue, etc. then the pretty ones...red, orange, green. if i start off with an odd number of one color, i can combine it with another color, but i cannot combine ugly colors with pretty colors. ie. no brown and red together. yeah, welcome to my mind...


5. music and email.
i put them together because it's supposed to be my FIVE favorite things, not six, and i had to get both of them in. i always sing to the radio, i have to have music on almost always. except when i read. which maybe i should have added to this last fav. music, email and reading. there, that's better. my favorite thing about music is the harmonies. what's going on in the background of the main vocals. i will listen to a song over and over just to understand what's going on in the background.if i can't email, you might as well cut off an arm. i shop online, read online, chat online (only through email :) i would roll over and die without my computer. and my music. and my books. and my m&m's. :)
