inspiration theft

In searching for Thanksgiving decoration ideas, I stumbled across the cutest DIY paper blog by Elise. Her stuff is adorable, and I'm in the process of making some strip pumpkins to hang over the dinner table (pictures to come soon!). I'm feeling crafty, and I just needed to start doing something creative. Plus, I have a big thing for cool paper and her blog just makes me want to dash out to the stationary store right now and spend all my money on fun paper. Dahh.

Anyway, I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows last night @ the midnight premiere — IT WAS AWESOME. I'm going to see it again fo sho. And It just made me even more excited for Part 2. Can't. Wait.

they named a city after us

On Wednesday, Ann Marie and I took a trip downtown to take some photos for a guest blogger spot on The Button Owl. It was a hot day, and we were extremely tired by the time we were finished, but the outcome was good! Cleveland can be a dreary, boring, ugly city sometimes. If you look in the right places (see: 4th Street!), though, you can find some brilliant spots.

happy wednesday!

Quick one today. Just a few photos from our local Arts Fest, which was last Saturday, taken by the wonderful, fantastic Lily. And yeah, that's a Harry Potter scar on my forehead.

Which brings me to the last picture…A Very Potter Musical/Sequel made Entertainment Weekly on the Must List! I got the magazine the other day and was totally thrilled as though I was a part of the team myself. Congrats, Team Starkid, you deserve it! Check out the musical here, and the sequel here. You can find TeamStarkid on Twitter here, along with Darren Criss, who plays Harry Potter, here.
