Let's start with it was my b-day. :(
I really want to go white water rafting
I really would like a darning foot for my brother machine
I really would like a basic screen printing equipment pack...
I would really love tools and materials for lino cutting
:)

I love this chair. But it costs more than my apartment per month. But.... i think Santa should make me one in his workshop. Many thanks to Anthropologie for once again dashing my hopes and dreams.

I have been getting more questions about what Mr. Ian wants so..... I asked him and his answer was "argyle sweaters and sports coats.... maybe rugby shirts" (total shock to all of you I am sure.) Just for the sake of mentioning it he could use some new socks too... anyway. I think i found the type of sweater he was going for at JCrew. Mind you ... it doesn't have to come from there b/c I know that is considered a pricey store sometimes.... but this is the basic jist and fit. He wears a Medium generally.




he also looks lovely in green... and that was the color he first mentioned he wanted. maybe a little smaller pattern... but not much.
As for Sportscoats he wears a 40. Trust me on that. plenty of agony over that size earlier this year.
If the fam is looking for any other clothes for the golden boy.... he really likes Kenneth Cole's Reaction line at Nordstroms. He got some shoes from that line earlier this ear and they are fab.
I'm trying to find a good sports coat pic... but nothing too crazy i think is the general rule of thumb.

We also have been looking for a new rug for our apartment. We have this purple-ish thing that I have never been overly thrilled about from the beginning, but i think it finally has gotten on Ian's nerves as well and we are in search of something new .... modern... fun... something.
I dunno. Well i tried. Here's at least a little hint or something for you.
