in bloom

A picture with the pretty flowers, pictures of the pretty flowers, and let's throw some yummy ripe strawberries in for good measure.

spring flowers

I'm so ready for the nice Spring weather! Today it was in the 80's and it wasn't humid at all[thanks goodness!!!]. It seems like around this time of year my plant collection starts to grow. Last week I bought two white orchids and a Lady Jane. I'm trying my best not to accidentally murder the orchids!!! I've also been eyeballing some air plants recently so hopefully I'll add some of those to my ever growing collection too. Oh, and I would like to get an aloe plant. Everyone needs an aloe plant!

date night

So yesterday was my last day of work. Apparently, when you are leaving a company you have been with for a while they like to shower you with plants! My boyfriend is like "Where are all these plants coming from?!" So, my tiny collection has expanded quite a bit! Yay!

On another note, I've decided to start a lookbook. Let's see how this goes over.





[of course I gotta take one with Aida]

new addition

The "green thumb" continues! Look at my new addition to my little indoor garden. I heard Lucky Bamboo was pretty easy to take care of, so I snatched this up when I saw this little thing was only 6 bucks. Does anyone know any other good and easy house plants to add to my tiny collection?

greenery

This week I have had sort of a green thumb. Yesterday, I decided to buy a lovely jade plant. Then on Wednesday, my friend, Lara, came over to show me how to make terrariums. Here are some pictures!




[do you see the heart shaped leaf in there?]



Here is the terrarium I made with Lara. I planted strawberry clover and asylum in mine. I can't wait for it to sprout! I keep checking it almost every hour to see if it somehow magically grew already.




These I have had for quite some time. I snip off a bit of plant and put them in empty diffuser bottles with water. I just started that little one in the middle last week.

Here are some of the latest shots from my Diana. I hope you like!














This picture is actually a "behind the scenes" of a picture my boyfriend took of me.





Creepy, huh?

house inspiration p. II

I'm cramming my brain with more interior decorating inspiration. I'm so going to be ready for the new place in August! I know this is mostly vintage inspired, but there is a tinsy bit of modern in this mix for the boyfriend [hahaha]. Hey, I'm trying! :)

house inspiration p. I

Thanks for everyone that recommended sites/blogs for me! You have been a big help! I have been very busy looking for inspiration for our new place to be! I'm hoping this should be fun and easy. I am more into vintage/retro and the boyfriend is more into modern/contemporary. This should be interesting.

Finally, I have more pictures from my Diana F+! I really need to learn how to develop these myself. Two weeks is way too long to wait [teehee]. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the pictures!

spring flowers

I had the bf drop off a roll of film for me yesterday! On that roll, I took some pictures of the pretty buttercups and wisteria. I'm really hoping that roll comes out okay though. I accidentally left it baking in the hot hot car - eeek. Until I get the results back, I will leave you with some darling Spring pictures that I found on weheartit. I hope you enjoy!

P.S. Finally, it's Thursday!
