91 post?!



Whoa. Someone's going to need to have a blog party soon and I think that someone is me!

This week is going to be full of packing, doctor's appointments and everything else that I need to do to get ready to drive back to school on Thursday. Whew. It's going to be packed. I have a lot of things that need to be done in a short amount of time! Wish me luck! 

Blog party will be on the day of the 100th post - I will announce when that will be soon - and promise there will be lots of fun stuff all day long for that. It's my first one so I better make it good! 

What have you all been up to lately?

Yummy


Look at this yummy cake I found with raspberry macaroons!! 

I had my first ones in NYC this weekend {macaroons that is} with one of my best friends, Toni. The macaroons were soooo yummy! I instantly wanted to learn how to make them.



It was such a cute store. I can't wait to go back next time I'm in the city. The raspberry ones were my favorite. 

What's your new favorite dessert?

p.s. Don't forget to scroll down for last night's photo shoot wonderfulness!

Photo Shoot Wonderfulness ♥

We had my first photo shoot last night for my pillows that I made for the craft show in July. My best friend Hannah McKenzie shot for me and did a wonderful job. I love her work :)

Here's some sneak peeks from the shoot:




The photos will be for my new Etsy site which will *hopefully* be up in a couple of weeks.
Between finishing a piece for a show {will explain more later}, getting ready to go back to Rhode Island {in about a week!!}, last minute appointments and trying to fit in going to Lake Placid {to see my dad}, it's going to be crazy.
I'm feeling the crazy already. Oh my. 
But it's all super exciting!

Also, I have some NYC pictures to post a bit later today! 

What has been super exciting in your life lately?

Lovely Tuesdays ♥

Welcome to another Lovely Tuesday! I promised myself not to miss my Tuesday post so here I am! 

Some things I think are lovely this week are:

1. This pillow by Helkatdesign


They have gorgeous hand printed pillows :)


2. These embroideries on the Etsy blog


So wonderful!!


3. This illustration by Lauren Carney


She has beautiful work and is so sweet. She left me a comment yesterday that made my day. 
Thanks Lauren!


4. This easy and inexpensive cupcake tower DIY by Annie's Eats


It's too cute, no? 
She has beautiful food-tography too. {Like my new word? hehe} Enough to make your mouth water at every shot. I found her site through Emma's blog - From Scratch {which is also wonderfully full of recipes by the way}


5. This engagement photo that Alec Vanderboom took for Elsie and Jeremy.
{wow, that's a lot of links in one sentence!}


It is gorgeous and such a beautiful idea!
Alec has such wonderful photography.
Elsie is one of my favs overall.
And Jeremy has such beautiful music.
I can't say enough. They are all so talented.


6. This stamp set from Yellow Owl Workshop 


All of their things are so super cute! And I love Nautical themed lately.


7. This painting by Alicia Policia



I mean, how adorable is that? Lovely.


8. This photo by Seven Spoons


More beautiful food photos. I must be hungry...

Love.


10. This photo by my wonderful friend, Hannah.


She's so fabulous. I love her work.


#11 - My first photo shoot today for my pillows with Hannah!
Hopefully this means I will have an Etsy account up and running soon! I'm so very excited.

I hope you all have a lovely, wonderful Tuesday!
