    found on the beach x2

    It’s been a minute since my last found on the beach post. I’ve still be wandering the beach, picking up things that catch my eye and photographing arrangements but I haven’t been sharing my work. To be honest, I’ve felt a bit discouraged. An anonymous commenter (of course) left some stupid, snarky response about how dumb this is and how I owe my readers better. I obviously don’t agree. This

This plant and pumpkin were a match made in heaven. 282 : 365 When I bought it I didn’t realize that this bat candelabra held three candles and not two. I didn’t have any more so I improvised and my little bat got an air plant hairdo instead. I think this might be

    grow light review

    In 2016, I reached peak plant lady status. With an outdoor space all to myself for the first time since moving to the city, I went wild with plants. I learned to propagate, and my plant count was through the roof. Then in the time between learning about my new apartment and finally moving in on January 1st of this year, I gave away most of my collection except for

    earlobe reconstruction journey

    Fair warning to squeamish friends – there are photos of stitches in this post. Nothing gory or bloody, just some stitches.   Notice anything different about me? Perhaps you never noticed my ears before because when I went through some old photos I realized just how little you could even see them in photos. For over half of my life I’ve had my earlobes stretched. I started in middle school.

    It’s the little things…

    Earlier this summer my parents adopted a dog, Ellie May. Klaus spends a decent amount of time at my parent’s house since they’re the only people I trust to babysit him. So when my dad brought home this neglected pup from a coworker I think we were all a little nervous about how they’d react to each other. They basically became BFFs immediately though. They honestly could not be more
