Happy Weekend!

It's been a funny week. Packed, but not busy. I've been spending a lot of time thinking about beautiful things: what the light in our engagement photos might look like, the sky limit of our wedding decor, beautiful things to put on my body, and what my future work may hold. Amazingly, the dishes still get done even if you're thinking of sparkles and silk while you do them.

And speaking of inspiration, Lizzie has inspired me to start brainstorming design ideas for my (small business) website. What's inspiring you this weekend?

Here are a few links to jump start your happy thoughts:

Hilarious customer service (via Anna)

I have a soft spot for pre-engaged pep talks

A quote every freelancer should memorize

Something blue

Something new (and oh-so-sparkly)

Layers of awesome: Horseback fishing

A one-stem bouquet: Hydrangeas are so pretty and simple

A fabulous home office

I love this simple aisle decor (from this post on SMP)

By the way, we booked our wedding venue! It's so fun to imagine it now I know what the space looks like.

Have a good one, darlings

SweaterLodge

Today we went to the Museum of Vancouver to see SweaterLodge, an architectural installation in which a giant polar fleece sweater is suspended from the ceiling of the gallery to create a tent-like structure (1/3 of #27 - done!).

The fleece is made out of recycled pop bottles (!) and is 26.5 meters (87 feet) cuff to cuff (!!). In other words, it's friggen huge. Check out Adam - who is 6'5" - strolling around underneath the beast:

 
The MOV website says: "The installation is a portrait of Vancouver where the veneration of nature and the construction of urban culture stand at curious odds."

If you're in town, I'd say spend the $12 and go check it out.
