Mixed Media Numba One - Revisited

Revisiting an old post tonight. I added the following image to Etsy last night and went back to my blog post unveiling it almost a year ago. How my life has changed since May of 2011. One change, I can't remember the last time I logged in at GetGlue...not my favorite outlet. Pinterest? Yes please!

Visit my Etsy shop to view the print - at a cool price!

I hope you enjoy my post down memory lane, it was rather fun to look back!

And P.S. the whole "Paris" thing wasn't a kick...I'm just obsessed with the city of love.

Mixed Media Numba One

Day 104 and I must admit, I'm a lot more comfortable with my new routine of photographing when possible. It takes a lot of the pressure off, and gives me more time to fine tune my work.

I'm doing some shameless promotion today. If you haven't already, go to my Facebook page and "Like" it to keep up to date. Garnet Photography.

You can follow me on Twitter here.

My deviantART page is here.

You can find my little corner on GetGlue here.

I have also hopped on the bandwagon and joined fiverr.

I've found it's easier to run my jewelry and photography on the same account. I mean, it's not as though I have split personalities (or do I?) where one part of me photographs and one makes snazzy necklaces. Me thinks that would be much easier though!

Anyway...

I finished a request for a felt flower barrette today. I'm trying to incorporate some mixed media in my photographs, I love the organized chaos of it.

I'm still on my Paris kick (if you couldn't tell) maybe it's the Spring doing it to me. We may never know.

My Sparkling Prize

Each day grows closer and closer to Christmas. I'm not going to spend this post ranting about how I'm not prepared...I think I covered it well in my previous post. Instead I'll spend this time on what I have accomplished; this shouldn't take long!

I was able to spend some quality time with my mom yesterday. We shopped until we dropped in Morristown and laughed the entire time. I forgot how much fun shopping can be when you have someone to take along for the ride.

I spotted an Eiffel Tower Christmas ornament at Pier 1 and like any thoughtful mother she bought it for me. From my first Christmas until now she has given me a new ornament every year. It's her little tradition - and I'm in love with this year's ornament! Our Christmas tree is too small for hanging ornaments, but the Tower still has a perminate spot..sparkling in front of the tree.

I couldn't wait to take photos of the silver glittered prize and now I am happy to share said photos with you. :)

May you find something sparkly to brighten your day!

I Dream Of Paris

Monday April 4, 2011. I dream of Paris...I dream of the beauty and the romance. I'll be the first to admit, life has far too few instances of beauty and romance. Sometimes you have to create your own beauty.

I was inspired by romance yesterday. My Husband bought me beautiful pink flowers (I'm terrible with the names so if someone knows, I'd be happy to know lol)

So today I dream of Paris...and beauty...and romance.
