If you've been reading my Twitter, you probably know I've been trying to take some self-portraits recently. Anyone have any suggestions/tips to taking a good self-portrait? Like how to avoid that awkward pose look?

Le Demoiselles D'Hamilton

I've seen these photos by David Hamilton around the blogosphere a bit, but I simply couldn't resist posting these lovely images again; they all seem to be tainted by a dream.

P.S. Happy Monday, everyone :-)

In a nutshell...

Here's this week's links:

Is your life all about blog content? Interesting post on decor8, dealing with how blogging affects the blogger's personal life. Would you do something in your life just so that you could blog about it? Is that necessarily a bad thing or is it okay? How do YOU feel about this?/What do YOU do?

Meridane Design: An online jewelry store I recently discovered that has a really neat concept. Their intricate designs are cleverly crafted so that they actually spell out words if you look closely. I got a necklace for my friend that says her name.

Favicon tutorial: Danni of oh, hello friend. has been nice enough to post an in-depth tutorial on how to add a favicon to your blog. I've always wondered how to do that!

What are you thankful for today? Crisp autumn days, hot cocoa, staying in at night, long walks with my doggie, being inspired.

Send Tina some love: As some of you may know, our dear Tina of English Muse has recently lost her newspaper job. Go visit her blog and send over some love :-)

...And don't forget to enter The Photo Album giveaway on my blog, sponsored by Frankie Magazine!!!

Happy Friday :)

HELLO KITTY

Creo que ya he perdido la cuenta de las que llevo, siempre digo que esta es la ultima...pero al final siempre salen compromisos..Esta que aquí veis es la que le he hecho a uno de mis sobrinos para su amiga Patricia y tambien deciros que es la que mejor me ha salido de todas.Tiene un toque romantico..tratandose de lo que se trata no podia ser menos.Comparada con la primera que hice llego a la conclusion que ha esta primera le faltaba unos cuantos hervores...Un saludo a todas.

Celebrando el cumple de mi bisabuelita

Hace unos días celebró su cumpleaños una persona muy especial y pilar fundamental de nuestra familia: mi abuelita Gudelia, a quien todos llamamos Queri. Así que le festejamos como debe ser con su pastelito haciéndole soplar las velitas. Pasamos momentos muy bonitos en familia y Mateo feliz de disfrutar junto a su bisabuelita que lo adora y lo consiente a pesar de sus travesuras ..... cómo no va a hacerlo.... si es su único bisnieto. Aquí dejo algunas fotitos de ese día.

GIVEAWAY: Frankie Magazine's The Photo Album

The Drifter and the Gypsy and Frankie Magazine have teamed up for a giveaway with their new photo book: The Photo Album.

"The photo album features the work of more than 100 amateur and professional photographers from around the world. We think (and hope!) it will inspire anyone who's ever picked up a camera and delight those who just like looking at pretty pictures. At least one will make you feel like running away, another like falling in love. One will make you feel like climbing under the blankets and another like having an impromptu house party. They make us think or feel differently, if only for a moment."

TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAY

Leave a comment on this post. Each person is allowed up to two comments to better their chances of winning.

I will use the random number generator to pick a winner on Wednesday, October 28th.

Have fun!

*GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED*

It could be worse

My lovelies, I hope this thought carries you through your Mondays (or Tuesdays!). It could be worse! Like the Internet could stop working or something. Where would we all be then haha?

Hello weekend!

Photos I took of my bedroom

Later today, I'm going to head out to this photography class I've been taking at a local art school. On Saturdays, they offer a program for non-university students to sign up for art classes there. My goal is to achieve the soft, dreamy quality of most of the photos on my blog. Does anyone have any tips?

...and tomorrow, I'm going to see Where the Wild Things Are. So excited!!

My lovelies, what do you have planned for the weekend?

TOALLAS DE BAÑO CROCHET

Este juego de toallas de baño lo tengo ya echo por lo menos dos años,aún me quedan cositas por ahi que poco a poco ire poniendo.El baño de casa es del mismo color que la puntilla, aunque parezca a primera vista un poco chillona queda preciosa.Espero que les guste.

ANA MARIA Y SUS COSILLAS

Siento cierto cariño por las cositas pequeñas, este verano me he entretenido mucho ya os ire poniendo mis pequeños trabajos.Aqui le hice a mi mama una bolsita del pan muy chica, apenas me costo nada hacerla.
Luego seguí pensando un poquito y me salio un diminuto caracol,mi tia se pensaba que era de verdad.Espero que os guste a todas y en especial a las pequeñas aprendices que con muy poquitos años como yo solo tengo seis,ya van haciendo sus pequeños intentos.
