These are one of those items where you say “why didn’t I think of that??”

I love scratch art, and post-its so these are definitely being adding to my amazon wishlist

Ampersand Lamp better known as Lampersand. I found this on ModCloth. Seems to be two of my favorite things Ampersands and Christmas lights.

Definitely wishlisting this because my birthday and the holidays are approaching us

I love these wood cut-out quotes from Spunkyfluff on etsy. Finally, someone who loves creating designs out of song lyrics!! Use code GIRLONCANVAS for 20% OFF entire purchase!

I’ve admired Lauren Conrad’s collection at Kohls for quite some time now, I’ve managed to get myself a few pieces of clothing but most of all… jewelry! Her jewelry line is not too girly and not too boring. I absolutely love it. I bought my self a pair of these flower earrings and I plan on getting myself these camera earrings as well! Some of the jewelry reminds me of things my great aunts would wear when I was younger… jewelry dating back to probably the 50s! I’m really glad history repeats itself… this is one reason why!

Love this bag and the design. Anything collage-like and design-ish applied to something you don’t usually find much type on makes me really really happy. Plus this also has circles and polka dots. I’m having a hard time not buying this!

I was searching the other day, trying to figure out how I could get Helvetica on my Windows computer at work. Of course only you can understand if you are a “font snob” yourself, how very different Arial and Helvetica are. But, that’s besides my point. I came across some funny things as I was searching.

This shirt being one of them:

Then I saw this:

I also read this blog post which I thought was hysterical. What if Windows 7 came bundled with Movie Stars? You will have to see for yourself.

I had wishlisted the emera bag back and ended up getting it for my birthday! (woohoo!). I will say that it has been a GREAT bag for all my cameras and other photography items. I want to also mention that this is not a sponsored blog post and my desire to blog about this bag is because I actually love it not because I was asked or paid to.

I had been looking for a new bag for a while and when Ashley made this great blog post ALL about camera bags, I clicked every link until I found something that could work for me. I’m not too much of a girlie girl but I knew I didn’t want a traditional black camera bag – its just too boring.

This emera bag is the “Circle Print Messenger Bag“. It’s SUPER sturdy, and the strap is the same if not stronger than a seat belt. The bag is may not seem too big, and it isn’t but it does hold a lot. I currently have my dSLR, an extra zoom lens, a lensbaby, my instax camera and other small items in mine. It comes with 4 separators and they attach by velcro. All of the sides on the inside can work with the velcro. So far I have only had to use 3 but there are plenty of pockets to keep the extra one around.

The bag has magnet snaps and the cover is slightly heavy enough to fall on its own.

There are three pockets, one on the front, on the back and on the inside. All-in-all this is a great bag and has worked perfectly on trips through the city and I don’t have to worry about my camera because this bag is very strong and protects it enough. I’m very picky when it comes to my electronics… I always want to keep them safe! So if you are on the fence about getting this bag, maybe because of the price or you are not sure about it… I would say GO FOR IT. This is a bag that will last you a long time to come. Click here to visit amazon to purchase this bag.

I love the idea of this mat… it’s reversible! Design that can be seen either way boggles my mind a bit because I wouldn’t even know how to make it happen. But this made me laugh and I found it here.

My birthday is next month and my mom keeps asking “what do you want? send me your wishlist!”. This has got to be the first year where I have no idea. I have a few things I could USE but nothing I am super excited for… does that make sense? Can they invent something I want before my birthday please? These are some things I had in mind:

I really could use a bigger camera bag to hold my extra lenses too…

These photoshop magnets are just great, especially considering I am using it most of my day

I did want to get a macro lens for my lensbaby… hmmm!

Any other cool things I should know about for my wishlist?? Let me know!

About 2 weeks ago I ordered this shirt from Threadless – a really awesome Muppet shirt of Kermit but when you look closely, you can see ALL the characters he is made out of. I just love it. I can’t even believe it has sold out already, well actually I can because who doesn’t love the Muppets? I think every 80′s baby can agree… The Muppets are LEGENDS. I think if you really want the shirt you can just visit the “bring em back” section and you can vote for it to be re-printed again.
I’m even more excited because a handful of known musicians got together and remade songs from the Muppets and called it The Green Album. I haven’t bought it yet, but its wishlisted. My birthday is in less than 2 months so I will just be patient!! It will also get me pumped for The new Muppet movie coming out this Thanksgiving.

This year I attended quite a few Dave Matthews Band shows (I’m a long time fan). I was so tempted to purchase some of the posters they had at each show. The designs were so awesome, and unique for each individual concert. I thought to myself “Now that’s an awesome job, designing posters for DMB!”. I came to find that they are designed by Methane Studios. They have a very unique style and I can’t stop staring. I just want to absorb every last bit of every design. This is a site all artists should check out and even if you aren’t artsy you will enjoy viewing their portfolio. Here are some DMB examples (these are just SOME of my favorites). To view more of these check out their DMB portfolio.
