Seeing this piece of art from Mammoth has got me feeling a bit nostalgic for my childhood boom box.

I hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful long weekend. I continued my spring cleaning this weekend…all in an attempt to…
Earlier this week Johanne featured this beautiful paper flower wreath by Alisa Burke. I wanted to make it on the weekend but I was too eager and made it the night after Johanne’s post. Here’s the finished product:
It wasn’t hard to make at all but it was time consuming. Wrapping the Styrofoam form was the most annoying part for me but crumpling the paper (to add texture) was kind of stress relieving. Next time I would make flowers of different sizes, just as Alisa suggested in her tutorial. I completely overlooked this detail. Oh, and I used white printer paper instead of butcher paper.
I’m putting it on my door this weekend to welcome spring and all my springtime guests!

My uncle recently introduced me to the work of Vivian Maier, an American amateur street photographer whose photos date between the 1950s and 1990s. Countless rolls of undeveloped film along with thousands of negatives and prints were discovered at auction just a few years ago. It’s been too hard for me to choose just a few favourite photos so here’s a full selection that caught my attention.
Aren’t these photos stunning?

Update: The new Vivian Maier website was revealed on April 22: http://www.vivianmaier.com/
I recently discovered Ma Galerie via Etsy Taste Test and these photographs are definitely worth checking out. Especially because of the fact that they are French and many are less than $20.
