annoying bangs, ranunculus and circus-mania

first things first i REEEEALLLLY needED a bang trim.

it was making my crazy....

right in the eye balls, ya know?

oh sweet relief.

i can see.

i know, i know it's not that big a difference when you look at me.

but when i look at you, it makes all the difference, ya know?

but then my pal, geneva, who has been cutting my hair for a long time, made me promise to come back...tomorrow. 

yep. she said my hair looked stringy....well, i guess i said it was stringy and she agreed. 

she is not one of those lying hair professionals, she tells me the truth. 

i like that.

so now at least i can see for the next 24 hours and then....hair cut time!

yessssssss

********************************************************************

now.

here is a little flower idea for you.

it isn't rocket science, i know.

it's not even that fabulous, but i just thought i'd share what i did with the ranunculus that i got at the strawberry stand.

i wanted to use that cute little circus animal tin that gracie gave me jake, but i didn't want it to get rusty.

so i filled a plastic cup with water and set it inside.

do you have a container that doesn't hold water or is too special to fill and risk rust?

then just do this!

you can even do it with a brown bag lunch sack for a cute little casual look.

just put the cup in the sack and fold it down a little.

yay!

remember.

no foliage in the water.

slimy leaves makes it gross quicker.

i didn't even add anything but the flowers this time.

and even though the mouth of the tin was pretty big for the little bunch of ranunculus, the cup inside was smaller and helped hold those little stems upright. 

now i have this little bouquet.

 i can smell it while looking at this circus themed photo shoot.

or this one.

and dreaming about seeing this movie.

i read the book on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (yep. done. that's just how i roll)

circus circus circus.

love it!
