Hello, Blove!

Well I'm coming off of a great weekend! A kick butt blogging conference with a fashion show hosted byTim Gunn (sounds very VIP, but really I was a little fly in a standing room only event).  Exhibit A:






See that little bity blob way back there? That's Tim Gunn.  Just take my word for it.
So anyway, great weekend and ready for a great week.  I hope you are too!  Let's kick it off with a little Blove, shall we?  What is Blove, you ask? 

BLOG + LOVE = BLOVE



Yes, I'm one of those people who likes to annoyingly combine words together (togethords).  I actually think I invented it, although I can't prove it.  Anyhow,






When I stumbled upon this blog I thought I had died and gone to thrift store heaven. Mandi, the author, is a guru when it comes to taking cheap finds and turning them into very unique and mod pieces. She has such a great sense of humor that comes through not only in her writing but in her craft as well.  Oh, and did I mention she has been on the Nate Berkus Show?!!!

Here's just a sample of her aweseome-ness:

Gender lamps - So clever!  (That whole room was pretty much a big amazing ball of  DIY)





She'll even show you how to make your own zebra rug - like, actually make a rug!




In addition to all of her fabulous projects and techniques (oh, Mandi, you are super-fly), she has an incredible life story that she humbly shares to encourage others.  You can find it here

So check Vintage Revivals out and show her some Blove!



Happy Monday, everyone!
