Suitcases

I was talking to someone recently about friends, and the limitations we want to put on friendships. That old saying "friends and business don't mix" is a bunch of malarkey, if you ask me. How many of us have incredibly talented friends who can help make our dreams and visions reality? Remember my pretty owl bag from Joy? My friend Elsie is helping me out with a t-shirt design (yes, I will have t-shirts soon!), which I'm incredibly excited about, and my friend Eric has been assisting me with my suitcase shelves. It has been a long process (mostly because I could not decide on fabrics...), but they are finally done!!! I love them. Like, ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM. They are going to be perfect for Renegade!


Pretty, pretty, pretty! I actually think the tree case is upside down in the picture, but you get the idea. I thought this was fun- Johnny was shooting me while I was shooting these...

Of course, there is Lucy... she is always in the way...

Ah, so thankful for my new, toasty warm coat. It's chilllllly today... and I love it! I hope you have a great Sunday. I'm jumping off to go sew up more little things for Renegade. I leave on Thursday!!! xoxo Katie

I Won the Suitcase Lottery!

That's right-- I hit the suitcase jackpot this weekend! I'm really excited about this, too, because I'm planning to convert a couple of these into shelving units. It will be so pretty! With all my suitcase love, I decided to do a cute, impromptu suitcase photo shoot.



In addition to some sweet flea marketing, I got to spend some wonderful time with this girl

(who is completely adorable so sweet!)

I told you we were going to see Where the Wild Things Are-- I don't know how you felt about it, but we LOVED it. Like, completely adored it. So many beautiful things to look at and lessons to be learned. It was great. I will say that I know it wasn't a favorite for everyone. One of my dear friends said she thought it was boring, and there was this grumpy lady standing outside the theater when we walked out telling people not to see it because "it wasn't good". Oooook. People and their opinions...

Anyway, I hope your weekend was just delightful. I have more things to blog about, but it's time for me to assist Hope and Johnny in building a semi-permanent fort in Hope's room. Loves and hugs from your friend Katie. :)

P.S. I got accepted into Renegade!
