Gina's Birthday Wishlist!

  • Nov. 3rd, 2007 at 2:52 PM
crabby.bitch, elizabeth.shakespearean, snowwhite.joy, marla.smoking, cate.i'm.not.there, mrslovett.hope, jaws.lolz, static, bunniiiieeeeez.cheese, crazy.pills, audrey.sad, amelie.question, phantom.love, oh.honey, bubblegum.hat


Well it's coming up again, so this is both to organize my thoughts and to have an online place I can link to for relatives :)




Dressy flats!
These are Ferragamo, but most pink or black slides or flats would be fine too. [Size 6.5]



Monogrammed Cardigan
Okay, so it could just be a normal cardigan, but who could resist that awesome 1950s vibe you can only get with your initials on a sweater? This one's from Bloomingdales. [Size small]



Restore Chanel Bag
I'd really love to get my Chanel handbag restored. I got it secondhand and it already had some leather cracking and pen marks in it, which is why I could afford it. I want it to last me another ten years if possible, cause I'm probably never going to find a deal like that again. Mine's like the one above, only slightly different and in cream.



Sewing Books
I love sewing books, and I've been realizing that more and more I enjoy reading the little stories the author writes and the beautiful pictures just as much as I like the patterns and instructions. Here are some books I'm really interested in:
Last-Minute Fabric Gifts, Simple Sewing with a French Twist, Couture Sewing Techniques, Fleece Dog, and Japanese Quilt Blocks to Mix and Match.



Jane Austen Movies
Yes, I know. Gina loves Jane Austen. Let's get it over with and list some movies.
Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, and Emma



Etsy Fare
I love most things from etsy, so you generally can't go wrong. Some of my favorite sellers are sonatine, anapaulaaoli, nanopod, and storeyshop.


I also have permanent wishlists at:

anthropologie
tiffanys
amazon
sephora

Are you a member of The Jane Austen Society (http://www.jasna.org/) ? ;]

Nah... really I think you can only debate the virtues of Mr. Darcy vs. Edward Ferris for so long ;)

I could probably score you some outdoor fabrics that are furniture weight if you give me a color scheme (my works saturday sale is coming up). And I'm talking in yards, not feet. Like 100,000 yards. I'll get you that if you want. I'm picking some up for my mom, she wants to make more cushions. Link me some colors or describe them and I'll see what can be got.

Also, working on my Statement of Purpose and Personal Statement is a bitch.

Why does working on a Statement of Purpose make you feel like the world is coming to an end? Feels like it shouldn't do that.

Anyway, as far as the fabric goes, HELL YEAH! That sounds so awesome.
I made you a little color palette. Any of this kind of thing is good. Gold or grey is also good.
