How can you resist a guy covered in children?

Victorian Era

This new pendant reminds me of a victorian era decanter label!

Here is a slightly different version.

And here is my Victorian Era cupid.

The little lady

And the handsome heartbreaker!

A special rock

Ronnie's thoughtfulness never ceases to impress me! Yesterday I was trying to photograph this new bracelet, and Ronnie ran to her backpack. She came back with this great rock she found. She said she knew it would be perfect for taking pictures of my jewelry, and she was right! How sweet is that.

Find the bracelet in my etsy shop.

Boo!

The boys on Halloween

The prettiest Purple Flower Fairy

Ronnie was too busy trick-or-treating with friends to be in pictures, but look at her booty!

You can guess which mom took that Ghiradelli off her hands (and the heath bar and peanut m&ms).

Fairytale Letters

More playing with pmc. A little irregular, rough around the edges, chipped right off of a rococo museum wall.

Grandma's attic

You know when you go through your grandmother's jewelry chest, and find all those sentimental charms that don't really go together, but kind of do?

Scenes from Treasure Island

Yesterday we went to the Treasure Island Music Festival (sans children). My favorites were She & Him, Broken Social Scene, The National and Belle and Sebastian. Here are some pictures in hipstamatic.

Fairyland

We love Fairyland in Oakland, and today we got to go with Granny and Grandpa Arnie. While the kids were busy exploring, using magic keys, and watching puppet shows, I was playing with my iPhone Hipstamatic app.






Yes, the Alice in Wonderland exhibit is my favorite!

Four of a Kind Friday!

Ronnie, Ben and Lila looked so similar as babies (and still do), that I used to have Three of a Kind Thursday on my blog, where I matched up pictures, and you could hardly tell who was who (or whom?). Here is an example.

WELL, here is the first Four of a Kind Friday! Of course, there won't be any more Four of a Kind Fridays for about 20 more weeks, but here are their profiles at minus 20 weeks, in chronological order.
