Pattern 101

So I just thought this would be a nice informative post to show you all the difference between patterns. (Especially when pertaining to fabrics) I'm sure you have seen most all of these, but I think many of you don't know that they all have names. Except for the most common: plaid and checkered. I think most folks tend to call every square pattern plaid or checkered. And argygle is usually just known as being called "golf or tennis sweater" pattern. LOL. Anyway, not that you really needed to know this, I just thought it would be fun.

I Love the Sun!

Day Eighteen: Shoes

Now, If I were actually to sit and photograph ALL my shoes, we would probably be here all day. So I decided to do these two pairs.

Just quite simple shoes from target. Both suede. You can't really tell, but the nude ones are wedges. $20/ea, I think.

And at XXI (forever 21) I got this clips. I think it was about $6 for all four of them.

And of course, they don't only have to be worn on your shoe. I am sure most people wear them elsewhere. LOL.

I'm not sure Id wear it this way, but I like the idea.

Day Seventeen: Technology

Here it is. The phone, the camera, the zune + it's speaker, and the laptop. I obviously use my phone the most, second it's probably the Zune. I am ALWAYS listening to music, thirdly, but not far behind would be the Mac. I like to surf the web, and edit pics and such. Lastly, and there is no doubt about that, it's the camera. I take a lot of pics, but it's mostly with my phone since it takes better pictures. Really the only time I use the camera is when I'm at an amusement park or something, when I'm afraid of dropping my phone.

When I got my first flip phone I put a skull and crossbone sticker on it, so hence it became named Davy Jones. Then I got my first Zune and named it Barbossa. Just because you're supposed to name your devices when you plug them in. So they just stuck around. The other two got names just cuz they're also electronics. Of course, the laptop is also Shane's so I don't really call it Captain Morgan. LOL. And the amp that's connected to the Zune is not really a self sustaining electronic, so I didn't feel the need to name it.

Yes, I am weird.

GLITTER

Some people have an obsession with cats, some with electronics, mine is with GLITTER. Haha,.

Of course I am ecstatic about these shoes I got for my birthday. I know, it's not for another month, but when I called up Nordstrom they said they were probably getting rid of them in a week or so. So, obviously you can see that I HAD to get them now. LOL. I would've tried to find them cheaper, but they only other place I found them was J. Crew, and well, you know how that ended. And for some reason I like these loafers way better than ballet flats.

I am so doing this when we have our own place again. Maybe I'll hang it in our little girl's room, when we have one. I think Shane would like that better, as opposed to in our room. LOL.

New glitter polish from yesterday.

Some shots from my pinterest. I love Edward's ashes.

Love it!

Day Sixteen: Long Exposures

Dirt and Glitter Cover the Floor

I decided that I didn't have enough glitter nail polish. LOL. So here's what I got. L to R. Sinful Colors: Happy Ending, Sinful Colors: Nail Junkie, Sinful Colors: Purple Blue Glitter, Wet n Wild: Party of Five Glitters, and Sinful Colors: Snow me White.That small bottle on the end is loose glitter for eyes. It's Wet n Wild Fantasy Maker's Confetti. It's part of their Halloween Collection.

New Lens

Got this cool new lens for my phone. Only $7 on ebay.

It's a macro lens. I think it works pretty well.

Now we can tell what's in the capsule.

Digital Scrapbooking

Day Fifteen: Silhouette

Guess who? LOL.

Day Fourteen: Eyes

I don't ordinarily wear that much makeup, but for the sake of the picture, it was fun!!!

Day Thirteen: Yourself With Thirteen Things

I like rings a lot.

New Boots

Okay, forget the top. Which is better shorts or skirt, and which shorts?

Day Twelve: Sunset

This is an old pic. I just didn't see much of a sunset coming tonight.

Day Eleven: Something Blue

That is all.

Day Ten: Childhood Memory

We went camping alot when I was a kid. I LOVE it!!! This is at Cove Palisades (near Bend, OR) We went there every summer and did all kinds of water sports. But one of my favorites was kneeboarding!

This is at Lost Lake (up near Mt. Hood). For some reason my sister and I thought it was fun to put a stick in our dog, Boaz's mouth and run. LOL. We were strange.

Day Nine: Someone you love

I was going to get a picture that was actually from today, however, Shane is sick...so yeah I didn't think he would want his picture taken. But this is a good one from our first anniversary, last year. There was another couple that stopped at the same view point, so we swapped pics;-) It was at Hell's Canyon!

This is one of my favorite of Shane. Along with the office wall that I painted;-)

I love you, babe!

Day Eight: A Bad Habit

Okay so if you read my blog, you'll know that this is not a new pic. But I'm totally a day behind because I was gone this weekend. So I will post two tomorrow.

Anyway, here is my bad habit, but I'm happy to say that because of Mavala, I no longer bite my nails;-) Yay!

Day Seven: Fruit

I am doing two days of the challenge today because I'll be gone for the weekend.

Also, the main subject of this photo was actually the tripod which I got for my phone. And for only $3.77 you can get one here. 

But I did think the two bowls of fruit in here was pretty cool;-)

Day Six: A Low Angle

Okay so maybe I took this awhile ago. But I really liked it;-)

Day Five: From a High Angle

Thank you Shane, for being such a cooperative model. LOL.

Day Four: Something Green

 The first is my worship music binder. Because as most of you know, I can't just have the plain white one, that the rest of the team has. LOL.

 Here's part of my doodles on the inside.

I really liked our rendition of "The Steadfast Love" we sang last week. So epic. I will also be excited when we finally do "Furious Love"

And lastly. This bad boy I whipped up for myself. I need to get more of these beads so I can make another.

I also found out that I am no good at knotting. I love the look of it. But maybe I am missing something because I can never get the knot right up against the bead...

Day Three: Clouds

Here's my clouds for the day. I caught a patch of blue sky. I thought that was going to be impossible;-)

Day Two: What I Wore!

 So here it is. Nothing too exciting. Roxy sweater I got at Ross, drapey purple shirt from Maurices, birdcage necklace by Bittersweet Bling aka me!

 Jeans from Maurices, cool chuck taylors with fish design.

And the deer head ring from claire's!

Blog Challange: Day One: Self Portrait

So me, along with some other blogging friends decided to participate in a challenge.

I am not sure how I like this one. As usual, I am making a weird face. LOL.

Not of my pics will be THAT great, since I don't have the best camera. But I'll make do.
