Mystery Map

So you’ll never guess 

My most recent art project.  Actually, you never will guess, because I just got an idea, no internet, nothing.  Ok, never mind there was a little Pinterest involved in this, but ANYWAY let me actually get to the point.

I’m making a Hobbit Map!!!  *non-exsistant web-audience goes wild*

Its a 100% authentic, hobbit-rune, hobbit-style map.  This isn’t the completed map, but it’s getting there.  I finished all the drawing of it last night, writing the authentic hobbit runes (SQUEE!!!) for all the labels and the border, and finished making those cute little drawings of trees that all cool, old-style maps have.  Here’s a photo so you can see what the heck I’m talking about.

Hobbit Map!  :-)

So yes, that is my AWESOME Hobbit-y map…it’s scrumptious, juicy, AND crunchy!  I’m a huge Hobbit fan.  Who liked the new movie?  And who’s planning on getting it on disk the instant it comes out?  Actually, don’t do that, from all the rumors flying around its going to be super expensive so I would wait.

Getting back on subject, once I’m done it will be caligraphy-style inked, authentically tea-stained and weathered map.  I can’t wait to show you guys!

Room Tour

Ok,
Almost done dumping.  Only one post left, and then BOOM, no more dumping (for now...*evil grin*).  Anyway, I FINALLY cleaned my room (Mom almost fainted) and I decided to give you guys a tour, since you haven't seen my room since like the beginning of time...or since TX.  So here it is.

My prayer table

Museum!

Ok, I don't have a ton of time...
But we stormed the museum...here's the photos to prove it!

Mom as Lady Vader

OMGoodness!
I can't believe it!  My costume was amazing this year and I FORGOT TO TAKE A PHOTO!!!  I'm going to do the whole thing again, just for the photo.  Right down to the nail polish that was so darn cheap it scratched off with a top coat within ten hours.

But, we did get photos of Mom's costume.  She was Lady Vader, which fit with her neck brace that she's still wearing from her surgery and her bone stimulator.

She had lights!  I was ready to die from coolness!

Worth Posting

Sorry if it doesn't work, but its funny

Drawing Dragons

 I could tutor.

Life as Me Photos 2

I did this a couple weeks ago.
Here it is again.

Thx MawMaw for my new sketchbook...will post some drawings tomorrow!

Sculpture Garden

So I'm looking through
The photo albums on my Mom's iPhone, and I keep saying to myself, "Hey, I meant to post that...and that...and that!"  So for the next few days, photo and video dumps on my part, of my life, to you.  So you can admire my awesomeness (just kidding with you!)

I'm not going to subtitle these, but they are all sculptures at this sculpture garden thing we went to, and none of them are living...so cool.

Feelings of Fall Intro

I'm going to be starting
Something called "Feelings of Fall".  I think you got that from the title, possibly.  Anyway, This Feelings of Fall will be a series of photo posts (I know, you're thinking...NOOOOOO!!!!  No more photos!!!!!!) of what fall means to me.  Remember, always click the "Here's the Rest of the Post" button if the post seems cut off or suspiciously short.  Here is the first set of photos.

Hangin' with friends

Life as Me Photos

A science experiment I did a while back...cool photo huh?

Silver and Gold with Ali Basye (Again)

So I had this whole series of posts where
I talked about my trip to the Philadelphia Art Museum, along with my visit with my awesome college teachin' cousin (she teaches English funnily enough, and Mom asked for her assignments for my English class next year. Don't know whether that's a plus or a negative.  :-|  )  Anywho, remember I mentioned that besides visiting the Patrick Kelly; Runway of Love exhibit, I also visited two other exhibits, one called Gerlan Jeans Loves Patrick Kelly and Silver and Gold.  I realized that although I posted about Gerlan Jeans, I never did post about Silver and Gold, which was really cool (and small).  So here are the photos (finally):

I actually could picture myself wearing this.!

Sea of Shoes...looking back

So I really haven't had time
To post about Sea of Shoes lately, and I've possibly picked up a few new readers, so let me go ahead and explain.  Sea of Shoes is my favorite blog, written by this 25 year old fashionista that practically gets paid to wear reallllllly expensive clothes.  I've found some new outfits that are just awesome...here they are.

WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gerlan Jeans with Ali Bayse

My hand hurts.
So continuing on....

Patrick Kelly with Ali Bayse Section 2

Ok,
So two days ago or something I posted about my trip to the Patrick Kelly exhibit.  I also said that there was more photos to photo dump on here (I've been going through all the photos I take on mom's phone on trips and realized I have a ton more photo dumping to do).

Anyway, we didn't just do the Patrick Kelly exhibit (though I'm not done with that) but a two other exhibits.  One was called "Silver and Gold" and the other "Patrick Kelly loves >something I don't remember< Jeans"

Anyway, here is the rest of the Patrick Kelly exhibit photos...the others are forthcoming.

Those are real nails.  I don't think airport security would be happy

Cowgirl collection 1

Patrick Kelly with Ali Basye

Now I FINALLY get to sound like
A real Se-of-Shoes-y fashion blog, because I went one a field trip to day.  I went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art to see the Patrick Kelly, Runway of Love exhibit.  Patrick Kelly is this fascinating fashion designer from the 1980s.  He lived and grew up in Louisiana and...well, read it yourself my fingers hurt.  Patrick Kelly, click here.

Anyway, I have a ton of photos on here, so let me dump them.  Will post more from my recent trips soon, but like I said my fingers hurt.

Sorry its so blurry, but this is the outfit hall.

From left to right: my cousin Ali Bayse, me (duh) and my other cousin Shena

Hats From Anna Sui

Stuck on Anna Sui

I absolutely adore Anna Sui.
My cousin Ali got me a design book with some quotes, patterns, and designs from her and ever since then I have LOVED her designs.  Here are some more (continuing on Post "Pinterest Galore")

Pinterest Galore

This is what happens when you set a fashion girl on pinterest....

Any Questions?

SOS...Equestrian Sandals Post

Just saying...
With some basic changes, I can probably pull this off without being strangled by Dad.  Here are the photos and if you want it, a link to Sea Of Shoes (I LOVE that blog!)

B-Day

I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!
Mommy agreed to let me have a more-than-one person slumber party for my birthday.  Actually, all I want for my birthday (BESIDES that) is sugar gliders.

Look into that adorable face and say that you don't want one...I dare you.

Anyway, I'm having ALL my friends over, um...give me a second, we're talking almost ten girls (maybe if they all come).  I can't wait!!!  You may be saying, um, Noelle, you're birthday's not until the end of October so why are you so excited???  But that's not true (kinda sorta).  You see, for two of my BEST BEST BEST friends to be able to come (they're moving) we're having it some weekend in September so it's not TOTALLY far off, I mean, it's almost August!

Anyway, I hope to see my friends there and I WANT MY SUGAR GLIDERS!!!!!  (Sorry, they're just so dang cute!)  Ok, I'm out of here.
