Was up ALL night last night...
...watching Hoarders—not because I wanted to be up either (I just could NOT sleep!).
It's kind of funny because before Hoarders I watched Objectified, a captivating documentary examining design. Both obsess over objects, but in two completely different ways. Interesting night and certainly feeling the no sleep now.
On a design and an uncluttered note, the house from Ferris Bueller's Day Off is for sale... yes, it's true, Cameron Frye's magnificent house is on the market! Can't be a hoarder and live there—your mess would be on display for all the squirrels to see!
I'll take it!
less IS MORE
Property designed by architects A. James Speyer and David Haid.
Heard the word from ISO 50 Blog and the house listing is on Sotheby's.

visual AIDS. a benefit.
A bunch of us at Martha participated in this...
"Postcards From the Edge is a Visual AIDS benefit show and sale of original, postcard-sized works on paper by established and emerging artists. All works are sold on a first-come, first-served basis. The works are signed on the back and exhibited so the artists' signatures cannot be seen. While buyers receive a list of all participating artists, they don't know who created which piece until purchased. All proceeds support the programs of Visual AIDS.
Visual AIDS utilizes art to fight AIDS by provoking dialogue, supporting HIV+ artists, and preserving the legacy -- because AIDS IS NOT OVER!"

I know you are but what am i
We went to see The Pee-wee Herman Show on Broadway last week. I just LOVE Pee-wee! and Globey of course.
Paul Reubens came out after the show in the freezing cold to talk to the crowd—what a character, he is awesome!
2010 is over and...
...Ashley turned 30 and I successfully surprised him!
...we moved into our very own apartment—no roommates!—and I have a place to make a mess.
... I have my one and only sister living next door instead of 3000 miles away.
... seven best friends are all wearing rings that say "flock" because that is what we are.
... I have a little birdie that I can kiss every single day!
... I turned 27 and mom & dad don't know that I...
... I discovered my utter admiration for David Attenborough. He is freakin' awesome!

paper santa & his friends
My sister came back from Sweden the other day with an early Christmas present for her little sis, me! She went to a shop called Grandpa and picked me up a little DIY project—an odd three dimensional paper doll kit of santa and his elves. They are so quirky yet endearing that I had to share they with you.
Designed by Swede Simon Alexanderson, they come simply flatten out on a piece of paper. After some scissor action, a handy MS tape roller and bone folder, I whipped the little guys up. I love the way they look just printed on paper—of don't worry, I didn't cut up the original that came all the way from Sweden!
For other paper crafts visit Upon a fold for inspiration.
And for more adorable Christmas creatures check out paper projects by mibo and to purchase mibo paper animals all year round look at the etsy shop!
I am loving the African animal set!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas everyone!
