loving : letters as decor

awoke this morning with a sniffle and a sneeze

and drat, the clouds have yet to leave me in sunshiney peace.

a roll of toilet paper and a stick of chapstick have been

my constant companions all day.

we are the best of friends.

but despite the yuckiness of the common cold

i had a rather productive day.

dishes washed, laundry done, errands waddled, packages mailed

i even dropped off Handsome Man's drycleaning

- don't believe him if he tries to tell you that it has taken me a year to do so -

i deserve a prize

- sneaks a bite of easter candy -

i am so, so, so utterly, deeply, madly, truly

in love

with letters used as decor.

for example, please view these lovely pieces of eyecandy

the alphabet wall [ via ohdeedoh ]

i have been snooping around the internet in search

for the perfect letters.

i want an R and an A

for our names

and hang them in our bedroom.

whilst browsing urbanoutfitters 

- thanks to my little sister for the birthday giftcard! -

i spotted these and fell in love

my heart pitter-pattered as i furiously clicked the mouse

to add them to my virtual shopping cart

and woe is me!

i discovered that A was back-ordered until july

... JULY!!!!!! ...

the nerve of some people.

in desperation, i found some alternates :

i like the first option better

- sneaks another bite of easter candy -

so i may wait until the horrid month of july

so far away ... and hot.

this weekend i will be sharing

some thrifty finds that 

the universe has so lovingly

gifted me with :)

sigh.

thank you universe

- could you by chance make next week the month of july?? -

- reaches for more easter candy and discovers it gone -

i must be going

it seems we have a candy thief in our midsts ...
