BlogshopLA

Well I've been looking forward to this for months now.  

Photoshop boot camp.  

Specifically, BLOGSHOP.  It is being held in LA right now and man, although I had a great day, I can't help but feel incredibly inadequate.  I love writing this blog.  Heck, I love writing it every day.  But, I know what I see in my head and that's not what's being delivered on these pages....So, I'm trying.  

I will get better and I hope that you help me get there!

My head is spinning.  

Really.  I get very frustrated.  

I generally do things very quickly and picking up on everything we learned today is not one of them.

But, the ladies of Blogshop eased the punch by giving us these goodie bags!

~ MapNote for MapTote

~ Note Cards by Sugar Paper 

~Nail Jewelry by Hex

~ Tote by Baggu

~ Incense by SweetGrass

~ Hand Painted Tiles by Coastal

Lunch was provided by Whoa Nelly. It. Was. Awesome.

~ mini swiss chard, roasted shitiake and emmentaler quiche

~ haricots verts, egg, tapenade vinaigrette, cherry tomato, tuna conserva, crispy fingerling coins

~ cheese, seasonal fruit, & house made crackers

~ chicken paillard club on ficelle with niman ranch bacon, heirloom tomato and avocado

~ sandwich crudite with fennel, cucumber, tomato, and goat cheese on ciabatta

~ chocolate pot de creme, creme fraiche whip

Awe. Snap.  Love my manicure.

So, will I feel better about tomorrow?

Until next post...

Blessings,

Knock, Knock....

Door Knobs and Knockers.  

A few pictures from my trip over the pond to London.  

(I could have taken a photo of every door!)

Although I am still partial to the classic Lion's Head, this Italian dolphin was beautiful!!!

Precious Cargo

Not much feels as good as a good find...

In my case today; SOLID marble hand carved foo dogs. (They weigh a whopping 45 pounds each!) And, an amazing, pristine, mid-century rams head sculpture....

Good thing I have three car seats!!!

Have a blessed weeks-end!

Getting Ready For Something Exciting....

Here are a few pics from a shoot we did today.  Something exciting in the works!!!

Plus, Look for G3Q at the Malibu Flea Market September 30th!

Harley our lab couldn't help but be right at our feet most of the time (he made it into a few great shots too)!

Ok, what I love about this picture is that we both still have tags on the clothes we wore for the shoot!  Ha!

We may have people take photos of us but we LOVE taking pictures of our finds!

Even G1 enjoyed the shoot!  Thank you everyone for your help!  Such and amazing fulfilling day.

May God be gracious to us and bless us and make His face shine upon us, that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.
