Happy Friday! Josh’s parents are here ’til Sunday morning and we’re really trying to make the most of their time with us. The days have been flying since they got here! I’ll be back to regular blogging on Monday. For now, here’s what I’m loving this week:
1. This medley of Taylor Swift’s ‘1989’ is fabulous. How have I not bought her album already?!
2. Pinterest Smart Feed: Formulating a Comprehensive Blogger Strategy <— Pinterest changed their search algorithm and it’s affecting a lot of bloggers. I’m in the same camp as the author where my traffic has been going up from it so I’m finding this really interesting. Hopefully this is the motivation I need to update my Pinterest board. I was on it daily while planning my wedding but haven’t used it since and it shows.
3. This sweater dress from Banana Republic is perfection. I would belt it, pair it with tights and black boots and then live in it until Spring.
4. Josh and I have been trying to find a piece to go above our TV in the living room for forever. While at a craft fair yesterday with Josh’s parents we think we finally found what we’re looking for. We love the lower piece and think the colors and style are perfect for the space. I had never heard about Ludlow Barnwood before but I am in love with the company’s work. We’re going to send them the measurements of our room and hope for an estimate that isn’t too pricey!
5. I seriously need to print and frame this quote. I love it. If you don’t believe in your dreams why would anyone else? Big changes coming friends. Stay tuned. 😀
BONUS
6. I wanted to let all my Omaha readers know that A Wrinkle in Time is currently playing at The Rose Theater! I read the book in 4th grade and I remember being sucked into the storyline and really enjoying it but it also totally going over my 9-year old head. I’m excited to see the play and fill in the gaps of my understanding of the story. There are performances from now until Sunday, November 16th. The show has been receiving rave reviews in the press. Josh and I are planning on going next weekend and I can’t wait!
Questions of the Day: What are you loving this Friday? What are some of your favorite inspirational quotes? Any fun plans for the weekend? Have you read A Wrinkle in Time?
I really need to make better use of Pinterest. Love that quote!
Me too! Updating my Pinterest is my goal for next weekend!
I love that piece! And the quote… I have Believe tattooed on my wrist for that very reason. 😉
That quote is guiding some of my big life decisions right now! 🙂
Interesting stuff about Pinterest! I love it but never really think of it as a huge source of visitors for my blog. Happy Friday to you!
It’s crazy how big a source of traffic it can be to a blog. It’s not to mine right now but I’d like it to be!
