today, i love my life.

today's post is very scatter-brained and all over the place!
but basically the idea is.....
today, i love my life!


i love painting! especially when i can paint things for a certain space. i recently created this painting for our living room to bring out the yellow and greens in our cushions. i'll post a picture of it actually on the wall soon.


i love wedding crafting! i mean, i LOVE it!
crafting all these thing for my wedding makes me want to be a wedding planner, so i always have an excuse/reason to craft!


Ryan and I are SOOOO extremely thankful for all the shower gifts we have received. 
Seriously, we had NOTHING for the kitchen when i moved in here, and now we have so much! 
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
this wrapping job is my absolute favourite, makes me smile everytime i see this picture!


 i love thrift shopping, especially at MCC.
the next few photos are my purchases from today!
ok, i always see this for sale at home stores, and in people's houses, but....
what are they for exactly? even though i dont know their purpose, i love them!

i am soooo pleased with this find! 4 pastel, surprisingly modern and cute mugs!
i LOVE how they stack!

these super thrifty and hip new shoes!


okay, so i got this last week, but i love it so much. 

I also love.....
having an incredibly handsome fiance that works at Starbucks.
and i love it when he comes with lot of goodies!



Another thing i love: morning visits with good friends, filled with sharing,
 gift giving, baby cuddling and tea!
I especially love when my visitor drops off a BEAUTIFUL picnic basket
for our wedding! I think this one will be the bride and groom "head table"
 it folds out like a table! how neat!


Lastly, I love life because I am getting married in....

my super cool friday


my friday evening was spent baking and decorating valentines cookies! it was so much fun! believe it or not, i spent a good three hours icing cookies. what a young, hip way to spend your friday night! right?!
a lovely conversation with lovely Crystal helped make the evening more enjoyable! thanks dear!






my favourite picture!

personalized cookies for Ryan and I!







Oh!
Earlier in the day, I went to Vintage in the Village on Osborne and found some pretty lovely things! First off: this awsome vintage green suitcase!

I think it will be an awsome wedding-day accessory!


 and a nifty carrying case for all my art school supplies....

 I also found this lime-green modern vase ornament.... I thought it would look super as an accent in a white kitchen!

 and then..... my favourite necklace of all time! an envelope! how cute is this?!?!

it even opens!!! so i can store all my romantic notes from ryan in here (i must not have very many romantic notes.... hehe)

well, thats all for now folks!
i've been addicted to Pinterest lately, so a lot of my 'blogging' time has gone to there! 
for those of you who are not on pinterest, i'll post a bunch of wonderful things shortly.

happy weekending!
Love,
R
