Quilt



I love this amazing quilt posted by buzzville. My sister and I had our silhouettes cut several times by this man who would come once every few years to a department store in my area. I did take my oldest daughter to have one done, but I dont think that he has been back since.

Diaper Caddies

We have a new baby in the house. (we have adopted my nephew) I have been looking at a lot of baby stuff. My youngest is 4 years old so we had gotton rid of all the baby stuff. I never had a diaper caddy though. I really like these...

Wists

Wists has become my new best friend in the blogging world. You can "bookmark" web pages with a tiny thumbnail so you can refer back to those pages later. It has become a great tool for me. You can make your wists private so you can blog about them later... Its the best!

Soup Cans



These Andy Warhol Campbell Soup Cans were selling at Barneys New York. Unfortunately they are all sold out. I can't remember exactly how much they were selling for but I do remember that they were pretty pricey. I did find a set on eBay. The bid at the moment was 63.00 with one day to go...

I found my own version of these limited edition Campbell soup cans at my grocery store yesterday. My sister, was 33 at the time found out she had breast cancer. She is fine today, after chemo and a mastectomy. I bought one for her, my mom and myself to keep as a collectors item. It might be worth something one day when breast cancer is a thing of the past!
