Greetings from Portland. Yes…I’m still alive. Life has been on warp speed for the past month…and I’m just trying to keep my head above the water as we speed into the last leg of our tour! Thanks for your patience In the meantime, here are some fun web thingys I have come across lately:

Ever wondered what you could do with an old basketball? Check out this useful site: How Can I Recycle This?

For all you photo junkies out there…here is how you can make a headboard from a photo. I am so doing this someday when I have a real wall to put it on

Looking for some inspiration to get your digital photos out of the computer and up onto your walls? Apartment Therapy has some great ideas for hanging art, many of which include photos. I especially love the plexiglass wall project.

Need something to do while the little one is sleeping on your lap at the computer? Quiz yourself here. It’s fun.

If you’re not reading Emily’s blog, you should be. We had the joy of staying with their family in California and had such a fabulous time. She takes pretty pictures and makes amazing art.

I know that many of you are in the middle of decorating rooms and making changes to your homes to create a cozy haven. I wanted to pass along a few recent web finds that I thought were fabulous:

Ferm Living Wall Stickers: As you know, I’m a big lover of wall stickers. My blue birdies are still one of my very favorite things These stickers are so striking that you don’t really need anything else on your wall!

Modern Tots: More wall stickers. Check out this entire site…lots of neat stuff.

Geninne’s Stuff: I have followed Geninne on Flickr for a long time…and have loved seeing her creations. She also has an Etsy store with prints. Be sure to check out her living spaces for some inspiration! Wow.

Jill Bliss: As you know, I’m a journal lover. I recently discovered Jill Bliss stuff…and I love it. Jill specializes in “useful artisan goods made from recycled or sustainable fabrics or papers”. I am using her Native Flowers journal right now and I love it. It lays flat and has beautiful illustrations on each page. She also has a mini journal pack of three…they are like an artsy version of a Moleskin. *love*.

Have fun checking these out!
