coffee with the mrs.

quite a few of my friends have gotten married this past year.

while marriage is a loooooong way off for me,
my pretty friend mrs. carmyn campbell makes me sort of excited to get married.
one day.

here she is making me a hot drink with baileys one afternoon...

i'm always on the look-out for clever ways to hang/store my necklaces.
{right now i have them like this, but i'm not sure it's very practical}

carmyn was shopping at the forks market a few weeks ago,
and picked up this fabulous wall art...thing.
actually not really sure what it's SUPPOSED to be,
but she decided to improvise & use it as a necklace hanger!
love it.

how do you store your necklaces & other jewelry?
i'm still looking for a more permanent solution to storing my necklaces.

love this idea from real simple:

lots of love,
janis

ps. i made the joy of cooking oatmeal chocolate chip cookies.
i think if i made them again, i would skip out on the nutmeg & cinnamon
{they were a little too spicy}
and a bit less oatmeal.
