hi there! it's time for 10 Things I Love Sunday. I have been mentally collecting the prettiest things to show you this week. First up, 1. Vintage Sewing Patterns. I have a huge collection. This one came from a sweet blog reader this week (Thank You, Denise!). I just made a display with some in the shop studio! The illustration style is pure magic.
2. I love this sweet message. Don't you just adore creative love notes? ♥ (photo by Thom)
3. My favorite outerwear pieces from Anthroplogie this season.
4. I was gaga over Natalie Portman's white feather hair piece in Black Swan. I'm positively going to try to make one for myself. pure magic! Her costumes were designed by one of my favorite labels, Rodarte.
5. Peppermint Hot Chocolate.
6. these insanely cute Jeffrey Campbell shoes. l-o-v-e!
7. Dream car. for real.♥
8. sheet music wrapping paper (via Country Living).
10. everything about this image is perfect (via Red UK).
Have a lovely lovely Holiday week! XOoo... elsie




I'm a college music student and I use the scraps of mis-copied music from our library printer as wrapping paper and to make bows.
Luckily its all (originally) for educational use and note to be sold, so I'm technically not breaking any copyright laws!

I *just* found a huge stash of vintage sewing patterns that had belonged to my husband's grandmother...they are seriously so cool. I want to frame them!
Can't wait to see the Black Swan--I know I'm going to die over the fabulously luxurious costumes:)

My mom has a whole bunch of those sewing patterns. She used to make me dresses when I was younger. I hated them...But now that I'm older, I really want to get my own sewing machine so I can try my hand at it.

aww i totally wrapped my presents in sheet music this year! i didn't think of adding cute jingle bells though- i did origami cranes and ribbon instead.

I just received a hot air balloon necklace from Etsy and it came in a music sheet paper box. I absolutely love that extra touch. Photo # 10 is certainly stunning.

I've been wrapping things in sheet music this year, too, and making little "song bird" gift tags with it. I didn't think of bells, though - sweet!

I'm loving all of this! But the swan hair piece is my favorite! Hih, if you look at my comment to your previous post...there I am raving about headbands! ;) This is becoming an issue! But love it!

I love little notes left anywhere. I find them fascinating because I'm rather nosey. That wrapping paper is also so so sweet. The perfect thing for music lovers. I love the photo of you Elsie. Your tattoos look amazing! Have a lovely Christmas.
