Happy June, Nancy!

This month, I asked my sponsors what they are most looking forward to this June, and their favourite TV show. Here is what Nancy had to say:
At the end of June, the hubby & I, who eloped on Leap Day, are having our wedding reception with friends and family. I'm very excited for it and can't believe it's already so close!
I'm a self-proclaimed TV junkie, so I have to name a few: Loving Modern Family, Girls (HBO), and Dexter the absolute most.

Monday Magic: May 14, 2012

I took a couple weeks off from my Monday Magic posts, but they're back! This week, The theme is bright pink! I recently made a treasury with these items, and I keep going back to look at it.
The colour of these pearls is so perfect! The shop has loads of gorgeous glass pearl accessories, and I can see them worn for so many different occasions. They're described as bracelets for bridesmaids, and I think that would be the perfect place to wear them.
Other than the pink, this aqua blue is my favourite colour. Really though, they're all beautiful
This coin purse is super pretty! Nancy is one of my sponsors, and I love her stuff. I really like the colours she combines, and the patterns she uses. Plus that little gold triangle just adds a little pizazz. You should really take a look at her shop, she has so many awesome items available, you're sure to find something you love.
If you haven't heard of MungoCrafts, you are missing out! April makes sweaters and t shirts out of recycled and new materials, and they are beautiful! This one reminds me of neapolitan ice cream. There are many others available, and this month, for every sweatshirt sold, three cans are being donated to the food bank! Look great and help out, what more could you ask for?

Good to See You Again, Nancy!


Please welcome back Nancy! Here is her response to asking her top three movies.

Apparently asking myself what movies I like is a hard question! I am more of a TV junkie, but I think I've come up with a representative list...
I'd have to say that The Royal Tenenbaums remains my #3. I earmark it as the movie that drove me to love that genre.
#2- Stranger Than Fiction. Hubby got me to watch it- says it's a very exaggerated version of us;
#1- The Last Unicorn. A kid's movie from the 80's. I probably watched it 1000 times as a child, and then again as a teen. It's a pretty deep movie, actually. I've held on to a lot of quotes from it, and think it probably shaped my poetic sensitivities a bit.

Hello Nancy!

Is the Easter Bunny visiting your house? What kind of treats do you hope to get?
Usually the Easter Bunny skips us...we are on and off diets, but a little chocolate never hurts!  I usually try and bake something tasty despite;)

What is your favourite springtime flower?
I'd have to say daffodils.  They are one of the first to sprout and I connect them with the relief I feel that spring is finally here!

Coffee or tea, and what kind is your favourite? Neither, really.  This might be boring, but I drink a large glass of water every morning.  Some afternoons on colder days I do enjoy a good cup of green tea though.

What is your most exciting project this month?
I'm pretty happy to be cruising along with Project Sewing 101, where I'm teaching myself to machine sew by following the instruction book and completing 33 projects in SEW 1-2-3.  My motivation for this project is to learn how to line my knit bags, and I'm just one chapter away from techniques for this, which is keeping my momentum up.
