Etsy Find

Check out these really cool frames made from salvaged wood...mostly from wood salvaged from Hurricane Katrina. Talk about beauty from disaster and a portion of the sales goes towards rebuilding efforts. Their motto is: It’s our way of preserving a little part of the beloved memory of old New Orleans while helping to rebuild it toward a better tomorrow. Too bad they are a tad bit out of my price range at the moment...

When I see stuff like this I'm reminded about how determined I am to find something equally as cool and meaningful to create.

Tomorrow is the first day of spring! I wonder if the snow is done for here in Colorado? Too bad the first sign of spring at my house are the devil weed bushes that have already started to sprout back to life...I just posted on craigslist to find a cheap landscaper to come dig out my front area, kill all signs of life, and cover with mulch...I'll stick to gardening in pots and in the backyard! I'm also already dreading the whole spring cleaning process...both inside and out!

And finally...I discovered a new band (this hasn't happened much since Grey's went off the air)! They are called She & Him and just released a cd...its fronted by actress Zooey Deschanel. So cute and folksy!
