It smelled heavenly but super expensive at $100. I couldn't find any around Toronto but yesterday I was running from cold to Danier store but because of the wind I accidentally enter the Pier1 imports and found these delicious Line of Honeysuckle products from $15 Candles to $24 Reed diffusers and more.....very reasonable prices and it'll get better by 20% off on top! Score😉 </span><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisCl3CoBSSUOEn4fk_fE5v__NQXDxmFTGMFHPl5W857oOMCCEb9f070sPn3D9mFkvUdYfZwHEL2RQH0ZanU_HuR6HIXFeubdx1us8Tprpgn44fy6ZSXFye6nbiH6b8nbkx2NeeMuAlp_CF/s640/blogger-image-1688423696.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisCl3CoBSSUOEn4fk_fE5v__NQXDxmFTGMFHPl5W857oOMCCEb9f070sPn3D9mFkvUdYfZwHEL2RQH0ZanU_HuR6HIXFeubdx1us8Tprpgn44fy6ZSXFye6nbiH6b8nbkx2NeeMuAlp_CF/s640/blogger-image-1688423696.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGfOWniqYYnYCkjJtGhD0axn9_iQ6zVYTnLcexA0M43JPftWBiCB3Uw4TsKvx_rHakqbmvgnW6ga9bQAz9bDoVBDAdFRlv0oDsN9vZUvG2uKKMYzQu77x7Ofqr-87xV4b0WhkmydoKAI5Z/s640/blogger-image-410865586.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGfOWniqYYnYCkjJtGhD0axn9_iQ6zVYTnLcexA0M43JPftWBiCB3Uw4TsKvx_rHakqbmvgnW6ga9bQAz9bDoVBDAdFRlv0oDsN9vZUvG2uKKMYzQu77x7Ofqr-87xV4b0WhkmydoKAI5Z/s640/blogger-image-410865586.jpg"></a></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16012922359157646523noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529628837706490950.post-16512590136929421332014-04-14T18:44:00.000-04:002014-04-15T00:00:02.277-04:00Makeover old Chairs<div id="hzroot6198521" style="width: 480px; text-align: center; padding: 0px; border: 0px; margin: 0px;"><div style="font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 3px;"><br></div><div style="font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 3px;"><br></div><div style="font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 3px;"><br></div><div style="margin-bottom: 3px;"><div style="text-align: start; margin-bottom: 3px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Iately I am into upcycling old furnitures and transform them</span></div><div style="text-align: start; margin-bottom: 3px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">to n</span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">ew beauties.

I love The New Yorker's (the magazine) illustration artists. We just got a new book about The New Yorker illustrations in the library, which I work at (did I mention I work in a public library?), so I had to take some pictures and post it here. It is so inspiring, I practice my illustration techniques by copying the image from the book or from The New Yorker magazine.<br />

“Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn--that season of peculiar and inexhaustible influence on the mind of taste and tenderness--that season which has drawn from every poet worthy of being read some attempt at description, or some lines of feeling.”</div>

I was reading Persuasion again! Loved the quote about autumn; but fall is my favorite season, it makes me more energetic and more creative. I found a few red leaves on Sunday (still a bit early for leaves to fall on the ground) and it inspired me to do this little artwork.<br />

I did this illustration last year on Sunday, September 11th on a piece of the New York Times newspaper. I felt like posting about it today (I have already sold it, but I have the image) and combining it with the quote "Keep Calm and Carry On".<br />

I haven't posted anything for a long time but something happened to me last week that inspired me to update my blog and share the story.<br />
<br /></div>
I was driving to work last Tuesday (09/11/2012) and saw a Monarch butterfly on the ground in the middle of a very busy street. It was trying to fly but couldn't do it. So I had to get out of the car (I know I know it was a little bit dangerous!) and took him in before the other cars crushed him.<br />
<br />
I took him to work and examined him, he was OK and nothing was broken. I checked online and found out that I can feed him with sugar and water on a cotton ball, and as soon as I put the sugar ball down he started to feed.<br />
<br />
Long story short, I fed him for a few days then he got better and started to fly a little. So I left him on my porch. After a day he started to fly really well and took off to Mexico. :)<br />
This accident inspired me to do a painting I am working on right now. I will post it when it's finished. I hope it will inspire you too. :)<br />
