Tiny Camper Love :)

So if you know me or if you have been reading this little blog of mine long...you know that I dream of having my own business... :) Having my own little store would cause a serious case of happy dances every day for a long period of time. I plan on making this happen someday....eventually :) 
I try to write my ideas down when some randomness hits me. This morning I stumbled across a photo that made my heart skip a few beats....ahhh don't those moments just make you smile? Anyways, ok let me tell you about it. I have this odd like for those tiny little travel campers, the older retroish ones that came with the pretty blueish-green or yellow stripes. So at this point you;re probably thinking "how did we go from her business to a camper"? What's better than a combo of two things that I dream of!

A little store out of a camper! :D
This would be awesome for festivals and things!
And just to carry on with that dream....I mean you know if I had a big enough store someday
I could just put this cutie inside and use it for display.....better yet I could have two campers!....I could just find one that didn't run to go in my store and keep the other one for traveling....hehe :) *happy dance*

I hope everyone has a beautiful weekend!
Smile :)

Photographer vs. Model

Since I purchased my camera in August my world has been  a whirlwind....It's hard to believe that I was ever without my camera.....Most of the time I get tired of things fairly quickly...not my camera.
I'll admit there are days when the desire to shoot is just not there...but that's ok. Sometimes you just have to step away from things. I've told a few people that I don't want to just become the girl with the camera....and I mean it I don't....
Just as much as I love my camera and love to be behind it, I have always loved to be in front of one as well. 

Today, I met up with my friend Dupree in studio to work on an assignment.


This is a shot Dupree got of me...and for sure the photograph behind the thoughts that came
along with this blog..... 

On another note... :) I got a new toy! I got a Holga lens for my camera. I can't wait to experiment with it this weekend! Hopefully, I will have lots of pictures to share Monday. 

Smile ;)

Random Objects.....

I like this shot....for some reason.....I just think it has an interesting degree to it :)


It's my refrigerator....
I was trying to take a direct lighting shot for my photography class.
There is a lamp to the right of the refrigerator.....


I love random shots of random things that turn out to be neat! :)

I think when I am told to do something....like this lighting assignment I have been dealing with....something in my mind immediately goes off and I make it really hard on myself....I should stop that......


Hope your day is wonderful :)

Monday :)

Happy Monday!


I hope your weekend was amazing :) 


Pretty sure, I'm craving some good home cooking right now....not sure where this is coming from or anything but well I mean...I am Southern...I guess it's just part of me ;)


I wish I had pictures to share today...my mom and I made homemade clay like stuff (I like saying stuff when I am not exactly sure what to call it hehe) Friday night. We made different kinds of shapes and things (and one funky looking face...I was, you know, just letting the creativity flow). I made little holes near the top of each shape so I could turn them into necklaces and bracelets. After, we filled a cookie sheet up with our creations, I put them in the oven to bake for two hours. They came out pretty and brown...looking like dog treats....
So, I spray painted them a pretty color I had on hand and I'm wearing one today :D yay!

This is the only picture I have. At this point they were right out of the oven.

I'll try and get some more pictures soon :) I am majorly behind on my picture taking. I also have a vintage carry-on bag that I found at a consignment shop that I need to share. I cleaned it and bought a bag insert to go into it! Best camera bag ever! *happy dance*

Photoshop Fun and a Random Bliss List :)


First and foremost, I'd like to say....Happy Friday! *happy dance* :)

So you know from time to time I post quotes and things. Usually I find them on Pinterest and I just 
post them on here. Today, I have an original! I made this! :) My creative juices are flowing nicely today. hehe ;)


I love both Thoreau and Emerson quotes. They were both brilliant men. This is one of my favorite by Emerson.
I made this masterpiece (hehe just kidding) in Photoshop. Usually, I use Photoshop for tweaking pictures and things that are class related, so this was a first for me! I might just have to look into getting this printed. 


Random Bliss List

1. I could deal with having a window like that. Sure it cold be a 
little creepy I guess, but amazing just the same! Find it here!

2. This is pretty nifty...there are so many "buts" though...hmmm
Find it here! It was a design project.

3. When I was little my Mamaw had a round wooden cheese box full of
old wooden spools that I would play with....Someday I'll have some for my little ones.
I think simplicity in toys is the best way to go. 
Image from here.

4. If I could crochet, I would definitely make this....right now :)
It would be a great little place to keep my scarves! 

5. This is so lovely...
Find more images like this here.
(The blog is in another language, still great pics though!)

6. This Michal Negrin ring is so very pretty!
Check out the other colors here!

7. Not sure if I have ever mentioned it....but I love The Beatles!
These are lyrics to one of my favorite songs by them :)

8. On that note, here is a Beatles themed bathroom!
hint hint....Yellow submarine ;)

9. Finger print charm! I just love this!
The directions can be found here.

10. Raindrops Blue and Green....I just love this picture....
It makes me blissful indeed!
found here.

I hope you have wonderful weekend!

Tillandsia

Yes, those random letters are actually something :)
....and I am about to tell you about it!


Not only are these adorable plants... they are also low maintenance!
Yes!
When I say low maintenance, I mean they don't even need dirt. They simply need water about twice a weak, air, and a little sunshine! They are also referred to as air plants.
They look absolutely beautiful in terrariums! (I've been wanting a terrarium for quiet some time now)





I am sure you can find these in multiple places. I found these on Etsy at >>> PETIT BEAST
The one in the middle is made to resemble a jellyfish! I like to think of this jellyfish as a sweet one....

I took pictures of my baby sister yesterday for a photography assignment. This was my favorite :) I played with it in Photoshop to give it the vintage look. 


Smile :)
