pink is the new green

it is pretty unlike me to be posting a finished object that isn't quite finished, but i couldn't wait! although the pic isn't perfect, you still get an idea of how stinkin' cute it is.



**the colors are a pale pink, and a medium pink, the photo isn't quite doing the color justice. i'll have an action shot once i get around to lining the thing.

i also jumped the gun a bit. in anticipation of a pattern from eunny for argyle socks, i bought the following yarn.



the colors are a tad lighter than shown. my camera has real issues with the brown color family.

and stitch markers are still in the works. my latest is a series of our beloved ipods. i have to make some tweaks but i am getting closer. i have the ipod, the nano and the shuffle in the works.



this weekend was spent focusing on the design of my condo. i purchased two new chairs in a fudge color and a coffee table and end table. i found a ton of design sites that i love (jonathan adler for one, and velocity art and design here in seattle). i also made a trip to ikea to finish off the furniture for my office. i purchased some bookcases from the billy line in the light birch color. i don't like them now. i should have gone with their brown/black color but i thought it was overkill since everything in this place is the espresso stained color. i was wrong. and now i don't know what to do. i am not sure i can live with it, but i am trying. as they are all assembled, i don't think returning them is a valid option. we'll see.

and i am still hating hold everything. the idiots pushed my backorder date AGAIN even though the site shows them as available and on sale! YOU LOSERS! yeah, they got another lovely phone call from me. i mean seriously? seriously.

grey's was a bit disappointing last night. i know it will pick up again. but they didn't say seriously once. what is with that? i look forward to my weekly "seriously" from meredith. ;) gotta go read the blogs etc over at abc.com now. have a good rest of your monday.
