I MISSED YOU! i hope you missed me. i spent deh weekend in deh little house by deh sea, slangin' fried clams & fish n' chips (no rings, foolz, no rings) to sunburned tourists accompanied by a pulsing backbeat of christian pop music in portugese. talk about sensory overload. but i am not complaining at all, like good parents, they keep taking me back.

i also started a v. glam jewelery course this weekend. the instructor is a charming little colombian man who just wants us to be creative...how perfect is this? granted, his aesthetic is a lot more geometric and pared down than mine is, but thats all secondary considering that i'm so excited to learn allllll the sweet techniques...like who knew you could make your own jump rings? not i.
