Starry Sky

Last night I cut out a bunch of stars,

to cover my walls,
so that jumping on the bed feels like jumping through outer space!

Your one of the coolest blogger chicks I know, and yes that's a huge compliment, I know a few talented people here in this little world of ours.

Why did you pick the red jumper?
Red, would not have been the obvious choice here, but wow look at the result.

after seeing all your colorful paper wall art I decided to cut out some stars and hang them on my ugly dorm wall. I had to take them down yesterday since I'm going back home and it looks so sad without them.

Great concept! (:

The last photograph is exceptional as well. I'm sure it'd be fun to jump and twirl around in a room as cute as that.

cellulite cream said...

I'd be doing the same to my room. But I'll use glow in the dark stickers instead so that it'll feel like I'm under a starry starry sky. :)

Colour me inspired (in the land of Oz we spell a little differently!)

I'm planting paper flowers in public places, just one per day (unless I get unexpectedly enthusiastic) to brighten suburbia a little. I'm attaching them with blu-tack and inviting people to pick them. If I'm lucky I might even find out the fate of my flowers at http://blutackitbetter.livejournal.com/
