I think I have a problem...

Hello...my name is Julia. I have a problem. It is two-fold.

One: I have a thing for birds.

Two: I have a thing for Pier 1. Really, cheapness in general...but especially chic cheapness.

Are you freakin' kidding me with these?

New Stuff!

Cleopatra, bleached peacock feathers

Thisbe. Love the dark mahogany of this one.

Mustard Seed. Fun addition to the clips I already have.

Starveling. My new favorite. Stunning.

Mass Hysteria

Oh my gosh. Oh...my...gosh. That above, my dears, is my Feather by Feather headbands featured on The Pioneer Woman's website today.

I'm beyond words at this point. So...

Feather by Feather on Pioneer Woman

Allright, so...I have a little teeny tiny obsession with birds right now. Maybe it's because I spend my days up to my elbows in feathers. But...get me something with a bird on it and I'll be happy as a clam. If clams are, in fact, happy. Where do we get these ridiculous sayings, anyway? Someone research the background on that one and get right back to me.

I digress.

Look at these adorable bird salt and pepper shakers I found at Pier 1. I went in in search of two extra wine glasses for the upcoming book club dinner I'm hosting in a week, and came out with these. Note: please devote more than 10 minutes on a trip to Pier 1. You WILL get sidetracked, and you WON'T have enough time to find said wine glasses. Because, you know, they have a ka-gillion different wine glasses that are of equal beauty. And are cheap.

All was not lost however, seeing as these two little lovebirds came home with me.

I'm so happy right now.

And now a break from our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this...

*swoon*

Hannah's first day of Kindergarten. I'm only, like, 4 months late posting these. You should know by now that one guideline for reading my blog is lowered expectations. Come on down here with the rest of us...it's lonely at the top.

What's your story, Pretzelman?

This is how he rolls.
