My little facelift.

As you may notice, string is looking a bit different today. After many weeks of non-blogging (or, more like, not having much to blog about) and finding out that my new design site will no longer be housing my design-centric blog, I decided to take string in an altered direction.
string will now be a design, [...]

Girl, I’m not surprised!

My friend, Rob, just told me about this. It made my day.
(Using your pet cat as a weapon? Now, that’s something I hadn’t thought of before.)

I just ate a Panera Bread cookie. And it was good. Real good.

Not that this is a bold statement. Or, that this statement alone is any indication that I have a problem. But it does further my concern that, for the first time since college, I’m finding myself having something sweet at least once a day. Top that off with an evening glass (or two) of wine [...]

Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

I’ve been such a busy bee lately. Procrastinating still? Yes. But, overall, I’ve been doing new things and becoming inspired again.

I just found out my friend, Mandy, who moved to England a few years back to marry her knight-in-shining-armour just had her baby. I’m anxious to find out if it’s a boy or girl, and [...]

Random silliness to start your day.

A fellow Flickr-er posted this link today and it made me very happy:

Flight of the Conchords: Poster Contest

Today I spent a few hours working on my two entries for the Flight of the Conchords Poster Contest. The rules were pretty strict (or seemed to be until after I uploaded my entries and realized people went WAY outside the rules), so I thought I was limited on images I could use. With that [...]

Double your pleasure.

Well, since my brain  is WAY overcaffeinated on Henry’s coffee (the best coffee in Indy, btw), I’m finding myself too scatterbrained to focus.
So, I thought I’d share one of my all time favorite photos. You’ve probably all seen it, but it never hurts to see it again. I told Matthew I want a large framed [...]

AMD: Letterpressed yumminess!

My new business cards arrived today and I was so super excited to affix my very first address label to my first printed card. I decided to go with a generic card portion (with name and graphics only) paired with a multi-purpose address label. The label will be used on my letterheads (they arrive next [...]

I want that! NARS: The Love Set

While I was looking for hair products last night, I made a little trip to Sephora to drool over the NARS makeup (I had wanted to buy their multiple-use stick in Orgasm, but decided it was much too glittery for a girl my age). But, I did find this little set that instantly struck my [...]

Blonde Redhead

Well, I’m into my first full day of blonde-headedness (the photo above is a bit over-saturated and yellow, but it’s not too far off…yowza!). I’m feeling a bit better about it, but I still am quite shocked when I walk past any reflective surface. I’m definitely going back to the salon on Wednesday for some [...]
