New Beginning

Oh, hi....remember me?!

I've been without a computer or internet for the last several months and all I can say is I've missed you and this blog! But I'm happy to say that after a long hiatus I'm finally reconnected again with the outside world. I hope you all haven't forgotten about me. I sure haven't forgotten you! I'm hoping and wanting to get this thing back and running again as soon as possible. One thing is for sure, I haven't stopped documenting the few adventures I've been on over these last few months. Having said that, I'd like to finish up this entry with a long photo sum up of what I've been up to over the last several months.

we went to this amazing vintage shop (whose name I've forgotten) that had all these wonderful dresses from the twenties to forties but the best part was this little room filled to the top with hats! tears in my eyes..

Amy said...

Not sure why this didn't occur to me earlier, but there are some excellent millinery teachers in Seattle, if you have ever wanted to learn how to make hats (or perhaps you already know how?). The Experimental College at UW usually has an intro course available with Izzie Lewis http://izzielewis.com/, and there is usually an excellent workshop at least once a year with Wayne Wichern. http://www.waynewichernmillinery.com/ I took classes with both of them last spring and it was so fun.

Arielle said...

WOW! You are absolutely amazing! thank you so much for showing me these links, I never knew Seattle provided something like this.

i would love to comment all the pictures, so much stuff I like about the things you did I could be commenting and asking question for a few hours, :)

Kitties and vintage, my two favorite things! It looks like you've had a good last few months and I'm glad to see you're back online. I love your Halloween outfit too, especially the makeup!
