are you feeling the fringe?
I’m not sure if I’m feeling the swishy flapper / 70s inspired fringe trend. What about you?

The Dirty Laundry blog is my place to put my daily delights and inspiration. Not only do I want to share my cupcake bath fizzie creations -- I like to share my findings. Trend researching is my passion and I scour the Internet to find the best inspiration for all of your crafty, gift-giving, fashion, lifestyle and plain old "I just gotta have it" needs. I hope you enjoy your visit!

My photo diary for 5/21 - 5/27.

1. Goodbye flowers from my co-workers on my last day of work.
2. I cooked my 1st artichoke!
3. I actually got a taste of chocolate ale!
Tasted like a chocolate bar fell into my beer :)
4. My new Hammerpress print fits perfectly in the Cut It Out frame I purchased at the SNAP! Conference.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!
The color combo of cool grays and warm gold is chic and elegant. Of course I luv it!

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!
Birchbox is the best way to discover new beauty, grooming and lifestyle products. And it's only $10 to receive monthly deliveries of top product samples from high-end brands.
Earlier this month I received my very 1st Birchbox! I was kinda nervous since the theme was Gossip Girl and I never watched the show. However, I was very pleased :)

First of all, I'm a sucka for packaging. The Birchbox fit perfectly inside it's sexy black and hot pink shipping box. And the Birchbox had it's logo in foil. And everything inside was packaged like it came from a good friend.
I received samples of:
• Algenist Regenerative Anti-Aging Moisturizer
• Color Culb nail polish in Clambake Coral
• Kérastase, Cristalliste Lumiere Liquide, Cristalliste Bain Cristal shampoo, Cristalliste Lait Cristal conditioner
• Miracle Skin Transformer Body SPF in Glow
• 1 Birchbox Notecard

I'm already wearing my Color Culb nail polish and the Miracle Skin Transformer Body SPF in Glow really does give my skin a glow!
I'm excited for my next Birchbox. Do you have your subscription?
I have resigned as a graphic designer for Hallmark Cards, Inc. and yesterday was my last day after six years and eight months of service.

Me and my 5-year Hallmark pin, August 2010.
TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF ME GOING FULL-TIME AS A SELF-EMPLOYED ENTREPRENEUR!
Hallmark was my 3rd job during my 13 year career as a professional graphic designer. And it's been the best job (besides my job as a Starbucks barista). After years of talk and months of planning I still can't believe that I've taken the leap out on my own!
There has been a lot of things have been going on here at Dirty Laundry.

Yes. We're taking the plunge to move to a place to better his professional DJ career (and live it up in the sun).
SO MANY THINGS TO DO! My plans on catching up with my 5000+ blog posts in Google Reader will have to wait.

Flowers from my co-workers on my last day of work.
I don't feel like I'm leaving my co-workers and Kansas City behind. There is FaceBook and this blog to keep us connected.
