Project Three Sixty Five: Week Ten.

First things first, I actually won't be picking a winner for my Shabby Apple dress giveaway until Monday, so make sure you enter. And remember to leave an extra comment if you tweet or blog about it for an extra entry. I can't wait to see who wins this beauty.

Now, onto the pictures. This week has been insanely busy with school, I really can't believe I am posting these on time this week.

How adorable is the new ferris wheel lamp I bought? I had this lamp when I was little. It was one of the few things I actually remember from Ohio. I saw it at the antique store the other day, and when I showed my mom a picture she said we had to go buy it right away. It's going to be the perfect nursery lamp some day, but for now it matches my room perfectly. Yes, my bedroom probably looks like your five-year-old's, but I'm okay with that.

PS It also plays music when you wind it up. I'm obsessed.

Playing Dress-Up.

When I was little my sister and I loved playing dress up in my mom's closet. Well, some things never change and Midway Antique Mall is like a giant dress-up closet. Liz and I spent Saturday at an amazing estate sale (where I got this album for $1!), and then stopped by my favorite place in the world- Midway. Here are the beautiful hilarious outfits we picked out.






I actually ended up liking this ridiculous green sequin dress- shoulder pads and all.

At A Glance.

To celebrate the new year, I put up my 2011 letterpress calendar from Ilee Papergoods. I bought this recently at Renegade & have been anxious to put it up ever since. I used Katie's technique of using clothespins to hang them on the wall in our little entrance.





Also, yesterday for my mom's birthday we went up to Jackson County area to do a little antique store hunting. We stopped at that creepy, yet ridiculously amazing, antique store I blogged about awhile back and this time the owner was actually around. He was exactly as I had imagined, and can be summed up with this conversation we overhead him having with a fellow shopper:

Owner: "Somedays I just wish a big ol' earthquake would hit"
Shopper: "Why because you have insurance?"
Owner: "Nope, I just wanna go fishin'"

He was adorable, and so are the three flowered tins I bought from him, which are now sitting in the entry way under the calendar.

PS Happy New Year! Have a fun & safe night. As my yoga instructor said, "be careful, what you do on New Year's Eve is a good indicator how you will be spending the rest of the year".

The Sofa.

This weekend, while showing Katie my favorite antique mall, I saw my dream sofa (again). I've been dreaming of owning this couch since the first time I saw it a few years ago. I'm not sure why it hasn't sold yet, because if I had money I would buy it in a heartbeat. It even comes with the end tables, coffee table, and two lamps. By the way, if you live in the Sacramento area you should really check out Midway Antique Mall. I go there all the time, especially when I've had a bad day... it's my therapy apparently. You know it's bad when the workers ask why you haven't been in the past week, and ask how your family is doing. Oh well, it's better to be recognized at an antique mall than somewhere like a bar, right?

Here is sofa:
