I've gotta RUST for life...

Just a little back ground on me...I'm from Florida. This means that any chance I got I am trying to recreate a feeling of season. We have none. SOOOO if that means I have to find teeny tiny little ways of making it feel like September-November, I will.

This post is dedicated to a color. RUST! This auburny, warm, chestnutty, orangy-red hue makes me feel like I am in a Midwest town riding my bike down a street lined with changing leaves...


 ...it makes me feel like I am sipping a Chai Tea while sitting by a roasting fie place, it makes me wish I was knitting a woolly scarf...well not that last one, but you get the jest.

I find this color popping up everywhere: Hair! Nails! Fashion! OLD cars and fences!





How does RUST make you feel? Does it make you feel how I feel? I promise you, this isn't the last time you will be seeing this color...I think it is going to be around to stay for a while- so if you haven't bought, made, or stolen from your sibling anything of this color it's not too late!

Rust In Peace my fellow readers.

Crazy for Crochet!

 Just wanted to share this online store with you. Grace, the designer, makes the most amazing and detailed scarves. The detail is so cool and has so much whimsey to the pieces- the little flowers, loops, leaves...turns your neck into artwork!

The flower on this scarf actually doubles as a brooch!!!

 Grace also shows your several different ways to wear each piece- making them super versatile as well. Each scarf runs around $40- which is pretty fair considering the many ways to wear them, the attention to detail, and also the fact that they are all original handmade works of art!


OPTION ONE

OPTION TWO

OPTION THREE
And can you beleive there are more suggestions on how to wear this scarf??? Love it!!!
