Five Things
February 13, 2009
1. Um, hello – CUTE OVERLOAD anyone? Can you believe these tiny wonders from Got Crow Creations?
2. There are so many unhappy stories coming out of Gaza – my friend Marianne wrote a great post right here with a list of books to read and things to do to learn more about Gaza and, believe it or not, help make a difference.
3. The wonderfully talented Lisa Occhipinti just updated her website. Inspired by her work, are you? Good news! She's teaching at the September 2009 Squam Art Workshops. I took her painting class last year and it was divine.
4. To all you Los Angelenos, Ghetto Gloss now hosts the Silverlake Art/Craft & Vintage Fair EVERY SUNDAY. 9am – 5pm every Sunday on the corner of Silver Lake & Glendale Blvds. SWEET!
5. Here's what you need to do: get a cup of coffee, maybe your favorite croissant, then sit down and watch Elizabeth Gilbert's recent talk at TED. Twenty minutes of pure, passionate inspiration.
Thank you Christine for another great post. Thanks for the heads up on Silverlake…
Also huge thanks for the post on Gaza. It is very good to get the word out about what is happening to the people there…
Christine, i love this post! Wish im living closer…would love to go for Squam Art Workshops and Silverlake Art/Craft & Vintage Fair! Have a lovely merry LOVE weekend and happy valentines!
What a precious little piece. I think I saw this on Etsy’s FP and I loved it then too…as I type little birds are chirping. Such a perfect moment!
We should meet up with Stacy & Bella sometime and head to the Silverlake thingajig.
Also: I watched Elizabeth Gilbert’s talk last week and loved it. She is so dang cool.

Thank you for the link to Elizabeth Gilbert’s TED talk. I remember reading Eat Pray Love a year or so ago and thinking, “this woman is so smart, the kind of smart you earn through living life”. Can’t wait to watch her talk!

Thanks for the link sweetheart – I just emerged from full immersion yoga-land and now I am soooooo excited about March. I can barely sleep already. Hmmmm, better work on that. x

Thank you my dear! I am HONORED to be listed in this group!!! Wow…
And how much do we love the Elizabeth Gilbert talk? Do you often “run like hell” to get that inspiration on paper as much as I do? (loved that story she told!)
