burts bees love

I am obsessed with Burts bees products! i mean completely obsessed,
my favorite product has to be the banana hand cream, and also the chapsticks, i have all of them,
and iam exited to say that they have released mango butter AND acai berry chapsticks!
So far i have found the acai berry and its amazing, it smells great and it tastes great, the first burts bees chapstick with fruity flavor. I am on the prowl for the Mango butter one. Im on a quest! For natural and awesome organic products visit http://www.burtsbees.com
or go to your local CVS, Rite aid, Harris teeter, or other similar stores im sure they will have a Burts bees stand! :)

watches galore

Here are some awesome thrift/bargain watch finds!



My ultimate favorite! The kitty cat watch with rotating mouse! got it for $2 at a local thrift store last week, i was scared it wasen't going to work, but Blaine took it to work and repaired it for me!
it only needed batteries, isin't is beautiful?!








This one i bought in Peru in 2008,
for 18 soles, so an estimated $6, its so cute!









This one of a panda blowing bubbles is off the charts adorable
and also got it in Peru in 2009 for about $6












This Ladybug necklace watch is one of my favorites, i have been wearing it alot lately, it was
made to be sold in urban outffiters but i found it for only $5 at rugged wearhouse, what a deal...







This keroppi watch is so pretty! i love it!
i love keroppi he is one of the cutest hellokitty friends ever.
Got the watch in Peru as well, $6











TIPS
When you go to thrifting ALWAYS look in the jewelry case
you never know what gems you may find!

opposites!

I just thought this was cute and funny :o)



Long ago when i was about 13 we took a trip to DC and i found these tiny pencils at a local flea market! they are so tiny and cute!






And yes they actually work! they have led and write :)

And a month ago i was at a dollar store and found this HUGE eraser, and thought to myself what
are the odds of having opposites?





oh well!

some art!

These are a few paintings/collages i have been working on:












This pretty much sums up my summer in Charlotte this year,
riding my bike, around crazy charlotte drivers, and the heat heat being instense, (explaining the egg frying on the road) this is on canvas.














This is spray painted mostly, i cut out a few cat and bird stencils.
i dont think im quiet finished with this one. Canvas as well.












This is my pink sketchbook i got from barnes and noble's
i think when im done with it im going to make myself a new sketchbook, i think it will be fun.
