    Sweet T’s

    Filed in Inspiration

    I’ve never blogged about clothing, but it’s never too late for a first. There’s a wide abundance of cool T’s that aren’t made by a 5 yr old in China, but are custom by local artists. But for some reason, these T’s just got me. Maybe it’s the secret love of typography I have. I don’t know. But check them out at Ugmonk’s shop.

    Tilt Shift Maker

    Filed in Inspiration

    This is the sweetest and easiest photo manipulation site I’ve found. I’m sure you’ll spend the next several hours turning your average photos into professional quality “how’d they do that” kinda shots. Here’s a few from their flickr group. I’m still experimenting with it. But I think it’s a pretty sweet tool.

    Our New House

    Filed in News

    So we sold our house and we bought a new one. Well, new to us. It’s sad to come to an end but excitement always comes with the new. We move in August 17th and it couldn’t come soon enough. We’ve already got ideas for what we’re going to do with it.

    22 Uses for Olive Oil, other than for salads

    Filed in Inspiration

    Though unusual for my blog, I thought this was a great and practical post. Thanks Re-Nest.

    1. Lessen snoring: does your significant other snore? Offer them a few sips of olive oil before bed to help cut down on the noise.
    2. Soothe an earache: warm up the oil slightly and use a cotton swab to dab it in your ear
    3. Make your own lip goo: melt a little oil with beeswax and pour into a container.
    4. Stop the frizzies: a little bit of olive oil tames your hair. Use a little bit for everyday by applying a few drops to your hands and then running them through dry hair. On the weekends heat up a generous amount & work it through your locks. Let it sit for a half-hour and then shampoo.
    5. Banish dry skin: Use it in place of your regular moisturizer
    6. In the bath: Use a few tablespoons in the bath to leave your skin soft
    7. Shaving: Use it before shaving to lubricate your skin and afterwards to soothe it.
    8. Face scrub: Olive oil mixed with sugar or salt makes a great face scrub.
    9. Shiny nails: apply a few drops to your nails and then buff them for a shiny finish
    10. Make-up remover: swipe an oil soaked cotton ball over your face to remove your make-up and leave your skin moisturized
    11. Remove paint and gum from hair: rub a little oil in your hair
    12. Lessen the look of cellulite and speed up the tanning process: scrub problem areas with a mixture of used coffee grounds and olive oil
    13. Stop your cat’s hairballs: add a daily spoonful to your cat’s food to prevent hairballs and make his coat shiny
    14. Un-stick your zipper: lube the teeth with a few drops of oil to get it sliding again
    15. Polish wood: mix oil with lemon in the same proportion you’d use for salad (two parts oil to one part lemon juice), and using a soft cloth, apply it to your wood furniture to make it gleam.
    16. Condition leather: a few drops conditions your leather goods.
    17. Stop silverware from tarnishing: finish a polish job by rubbing it with olive oil
    18. Shine stainless steel: rub with olive oil to bring up the shine.
    19. Stop wax from sticking to your candlestick: rub it with a few drops of olive oil before inserting a candle and make clean up easier.
    20. Make garden clean up easier: apply a few drops to your tools before starting your gardening makes the clean up afterwards easier.
    21. Mosquito repellent: a little olive oil sprayed on your skin keeps the bugs at bay
    22. Lube your door’s hinges: a few drops will prevent a squeak.

    Another music post

    Filed in Music

    So to add to the YouTube music clips, I found this great video of U2 performing The Unforgettable Fire recently on their U2 360 tour. Not only is this a great video, I am so excited to see them perform this great song live. I don’t believe they’ve performed it live since the late 80′s.

    There’s no one who can make the guitar sound like Jimi Hendrix. Here’s a great performance of one of my favorite songs, The Wind Cries Mary.

    I love the photography of Marko from Ecuador. I know we share the same name :) but I love the texture, color, composition and mysteriousness of his photography. Check out his flickr account.

    Lemons *NEW PRINT*

    Filed in New Work, News

    Introducing my new print, Lemons. I used photos I took while in New York at a really awesome diner on the corner of Broadway and Bleecker. For some reason I kept thinking of old 1950′s technicolor movies. Like Alfred Hitchcock, Audrey Hepburn or even POP artist, Andy Warhol. This print is 8×10. Yes, I know, conventional size. But I want it to be easy to frame. Purchase it at my etsy store for only $25!
