so i had a saturday off (for once) and i'm secretly an eighty year old on the weekends and i love to attend craft fairs. there's really only three that i regularly go to. This weekend was the sugarplum festival, but i also attend the harvest festival and unique L.A. there are always unique and cute items that are very reasonably priced. most of the decorations in the pictures below are from these fairs. this weekend i found some jewelry, my dads birthday present, a really great hat (which a picture will soon make its way to a post. i need to hit the beach first:]) and a fantastic picture.
i rearranged some stuff in my room to make a place for the picture and in doing so had to store the only colorful items on my walls. i'm such a black and white girl. i love the crisp classiness of the juxtaposition of black and white. i'm also a sucker for a good zebra. zebra is a little tricky because you can't over do it, and it can't be a 'stripper' zebra. anyways...back to the picture! ha ha. it's a huge framed picture of marilyn monroe that is actually four different pictures from the same photo shoot. it's really cool. the frame is painted black, but distressed and the photos are black and white, but printed in silver so the sheen the picture gives off is really neat looking.
it was a successful weekend.
i had this vinyl lettering on my wall above my bed, but removed it to make room for my new picture. it says: laughter is timeless...imagination has no age...and dreams are forever...
this print on canvas hung over the lettering
my new picture over my bed
just a few pieces of the black and white decor in my room...oh and my lovely dress form (ms.thang)
a framed pane of glass with vinyl lettering and my chandelier (i LOVE the shadow it creates on the wall)
the chandelier hung in the kitchen of my apartment before i moved. i loved the shadow and the contrast it made with the turquoise walls
