Crochet Butterflies

Are you kidding? These are SO cool. I love them! From oeuf, these are hand crocheted alpaca butterflies you can buy in the display case. First off, I absolutely love old timey butterfly displays. I have a little one myself. These products are made by indigenous women in Bolivia, and the profits help these women give their children an education. I think these butterflies are genious and lovely. I'm going to save up for the big one!

Halloween Costumes!

This weekend is Halloween, one of my favorite holidays. The only problem is, every year I plan on making an amazing elaborate costume, but don't, so I have to throw things together in a few days. Yesterday I was googling costumes for ideas and here are some favorites that I found! I think I am going to either be Alice in Wonderland using a nice vintage blue dress, or Pippi Longstocking, or Pippi Långstrump; which is the original Swedish name.

DJ Lance from Yo Gabba Gabba...equipped with boombox!

The original Pippi...so cute.

Old California Raisons pattern...classic.

Rad crocheted hamburger dress.

I love PEZ!

Has anyone played Katamari on xbox? This costume rules.

Yes!

Dear Creatures

I am very excited about this years fall fashions...as I am every year! One of my favorite designers is Dear Creatures. They have so many things I would love to buy. Their fall 2009 photo shoot is very colorful and crafty. Here are a few images.
