color wheel wednesday: fall colors

by 6 Comments

I had no idea how hard blogging would be during the school year. I really do miss blogging consistently! I also miss shopping. This season, I am resisting as much as possible, hoping to have an income in the near future. (I had a second Anthro interview, but they haven’t got back to me yet… aahhh!)

When I get out my fall weather clothes, I plan on doing some major outfit planning that will make me not feel the need for new clothes. Maybe I can even get a little help from my sewing machine :) 
i especially love the outfit in the middle. source

(I decided to start using big pictures again! I think it makes collage-y photos look much better.)
So, in the morning I am going to Portland again. This time the occasion is not as lighthearted because we are going to see my grandpa who has been really sick. He is such a great man. It’ll be a meaningful time.

Yesterday, I tutored two little boys at my internship. Homework Club Girl is one name for me, but I also go by Miss Jennifer. I began our homework sesh with a discussion about our favorite colors. One of the boys decided that he loved all colors. When I asked him to pick only his very favorite, he replied, “Okay…pink. And green. And orange. And purple, kind of, and blue and yellow.” I agree. How can you choose just one?

Sometimes it is too hard to appreciate only one or two colors at a time.

color wheel wednesday: rust

Deep brownish red with a hint of orange. I love it.

Rust, like teal, is one of those colors that are specific and yet have so many variations.

I feel like I have been taking a blog vacation even though it has only been a few days. I just have to get situated with assignments and reading schedules. One more year, one more year…!
Notice all of the Anthropologie products? This afternoon, I had an interview there (!!!!!)
Unfortunately, I can’t say whether it was good or bad since it was so incredibly fast paced and basic. I was a little disappointed that I couldn’t share much about myself. Now only time will tell. And if I don’t get a second interview, I’ll be okay with that.

PS. Is anyone else using the new Blogger interface? It is pretty!

color wheel wednesday: red

Today, I am appreciating the color red which, is something I have just learned to do this summer. I love how it represents so many emotions and it always adds a little spark to everything. It is a good, good color. On my summer wish list are red sandals, red nail polish, and red shorts. Mostly the shorts. I have wanted them all summer, but I am trying not to go shopping for clothes. Yay for self-control!

There are so many pictures I want to share from the past few days. However, my internet is being crazy. So, hopefully tomorrow :)

PS. Thanks so much for all of the nice comments about my pottery! Being a complete beginner at something is always interesting, and a little awkward.

color wheel wednesday: yellow

I love colors. Lately, I have been spending a lot of time at one of my favorite websites, COLOURlovers. Here, I can find nice palettes and patterns and create my own as well. There is even a seamless studio now, but I haven’t really checked it out yet. 
Today I want to talk about my favorite color in the entire world. Sometimes, I like to say that my favorite color is gold or “sparkles” (that’s a strech), but I need not get carried away. 
Yellow will do. :)

Yellow reminds me of a few of my favorite things. The sun. Honey. Being happy. Lemons. Curry.

where did this beautiful picture come from? this is my dream room.
I love most shades of yellow, but some tend to hurt my eyes. 
Well, this is the start of something a weekly kind of post. I want to start blogging in a more scheduled way because it keeps me inspired and disciplined. I feel a little ridiculous having to discipline myself to blog. But lately in the craft world, I have been having ups and downs. Sometimes I get discouraged, but I will just keep on crafting and learning from other bloggers. 
By this fall (hopefully sooner), I will have my etsy open! I have made a few things, but I haven’t made enough for a shop. However, I have many ideas, and I’d like to embrace all the free time I’ve been give this summer and put it to good use.
For the next month or so, I will probably be surrounded by yarn and fabric and paper. Hopefully good things will come of it. :) 
Anyway, rabbit traaaiilll!
My point is that I love yellow.
