j.crew ballerinas

I got the J.Crew catalog for September 2011 in the mail - oh my it is yummy. How did they know I love ballerinas? It reminds me of the ballerinas in the Kanye West performance I blogged about a while ago. I just love this type of thang!! Yummy!

I am not a huge cottager, but I COULD do this! Even better, this is located in Ontario. No word on what happens when it freezes though! {via toxel}

science-inspired fleurs!

Sorry about the slow posts Bloomers...busy bees we are! I thought I'd show you a little science inspired flower arrangement that I made for Helix BioPharma Corp.'s staff party yesterday! You will remember Shayna Bloomer's previous posts on "nerdy" decor here and here. Using real test tube holders from my own father's laboratory 20-30 years ago (talk about authentic!), I put little button mums inside, and the results made me feel happy snappy! What do you think?

sage's 1st bday party!

Hey Bloomers, a few weeks ago we had a birthday party for Mrs. Sage! Joelle Bloomer takes all the credit, she did a great job...and how with a little beber? This is love! AND, she moved into her new house the same week...sheesh! It was a picnic theme with red and white...lots of cool patterns, and some blue thrown in there for good measure. Beautiful!! Great work Joelley! {pics by Craig Morrison at www.craigmorrison.ca and pics 15 and 16 by Geoffrey Owen}
