First: saw Harry Potter for date night on Sunday. And...boy did I cry. I just can't help but feel like it is over! Ohhh my. I know I will still listen to the audiobooks and watch the movies, but...there is definitely some lingering sadness (not because I didn't like the movie, because, I did! For the most part :D). Onto a happier note: I am obsessed with succulents and air plants. I even made a pinterest board devoted solely to them!! Well, after hearing about a great seller (acorn design source) of said plants from my sweet sweet friend, Kelly, I decided to check them out at the Wilmette French Market with another sweet friend, Alissa! We also stopped by a church rummage sale that I passed on the way to the market and I got a sweet floor lamp for $10! And a lamp shade (for $2) with scalloped edges to someday to this kind of thing with. Here are some photos from the days events:
these are crazy, right? they're called lithops or living stones.
I'm getting these baby's NEXT time! and a fly trap!
I know. I'm kind of crazy. like a "plant lady" rather than a "cat lady".
I am just so happy with my little plants!! they make me smile :)
How fun! You're so creative!
