Our Favorite Friends

They are furry.

They are approximately 20 inches tall.

They are our favorite little friends at Express Yourself.

We love our Jellycats.

From the cat with the longest tail ever

to the pink elephant

and the curious monkey.

We've spotted them at aquariums in Connecticut

nurseries in California

and on airplanes soaring over America.

They are loved by everyone, everywhere.

Greenery

We know, today is tax day.
You either have to part with a lot of greenor you might be lucky enough to get some in return.
Either way, we love these green frames sitting on our shelves.
We love them so much, we might just frame our tax return.
Ha, not!

So long 2008

We really love our Snow & Graham calendars.

So much so that we still had it hanging on our wall.

It was a 2008 calendar and it's April...time to move on.

But we didn't have to separate from our love for last year completely.

A quick visit to the dollar store presented us with some great 8"x10" frames

and an opportunity to create some art for our kitchen and bathroom.

We simply cut out the images, framed and hung.

So 2008 can live on in a more timely fashion.

Monday, Monday

Monday. Oh what a day.

The start of a fresh week, but another day back at the office.

Spend some spare time nurturing your inner Picasso (or Pollock, whatever)

With the Easter holiday upon (most of) us

it finally feels like Spring is here.

Such a beautiful time of year.

But bunnies and chicks are more than a holiday icon,

they are cute reminders of the other little peeps in our lives.

Babies!

These invites and cards work well for this coming weekends celebration

as well as for birth announcement elations.

How appropriate in this season of

rebirth, rejoice and renewal.

Guess who Amy ran into (literally!) outside Express Yourself in Basalt this afternoon?
None other than William H. Macy!
That's our celebrity news of the day...

How High Can We Go?

Attention ladies!

Spring and Summer party season has begun.

It's time to dig out the heels,

maybe purchase a new pair or two,

and get your high on.

We love these invites from Stevie Streck.

They always get us in the party mood.

Next up, flip flops.
