My Favorite Things

I was tagged by IROCKSOWHAT to share a few of my favorite things around our house!

starting from left to right:
Henry's origami crane mobile, our kitchen shelves, our book collection, the quilt my little sister made for me, our colorful plate collection, Bunz the cat, the bookshelf G made for Henry before he was born, my microkorg, our record collection, the tea pot and cups from our dear college friends, G's self portrait, my bike (and our porch!)

Now I tag:

    I want to see more of the plate collection!!

    And the quilt!!

    I totally want to get into quilting, but I'm terrible at sewing, so.... it may never happen.

    H's bookshelf is very cool. I bookmarked directions on how to make one right after M was born, but we still haven't made one. We should get on that. The quilt is awesome too. :)

    jess: i was super excited about this tag, it was a lot of fun so thanks!

    brittany: i bet your stuff is awesome and i can't wait to see :)

    moriah: thank you! g does a lot of the paintings in our house, which makes the whole house feel so roomy!

    tia: oh wow, i am SO bad at sewing large things like quilts. i couldn't believe my ELEVEN YEAR OLD sister sewed that all by herself. crazy!

    joy: thanks so much! i'll list and tag soooooon!

    paige: i know you don't usually "do" tags (i don't either) but i was curious about what you had lying around your place. won't break my heart if you don't do this though, fyi ;)

    sarah: thanks! i was really happy with the way the shelf turned out, it hangs on the wall and doesn't take up any room space. win!

    shelley: thanks! i'm headed over there right after i type these replies! you are so sweet :)

    brittany: YEAH. RIGHT. your stuff was seriously awesome and i love your style. i remember the day you found those rad cases and the vintage cameras and put them up on the shelf. wow, we've been blog friends for a long time now haven't we?!

    jill: thank you! i will pass on your compliment to G! bunz is a really sweet looking cat but she's kind of a mean old grumpy lady...

    melissa: thanks!

    That was a lot of fun, thank you! :-)
    Sorry, took me a while, it was just so darn hot over here (so hot, my receiver blew up, does that count as an excuse? ;-)...)
    Love Henry´s bookshelf!
