<div style="text-align: center;">
My earphones broke the other day. Instead of just throwing them out, I tried to think of what else I could do with them and a cute idea popped in my head!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8245920187/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="267" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8206/8245920187_7a3739135c.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took a little toy and drilled a hole in it. Then I cut off the jack to the earphones and super glued it in the toy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8245920121/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="266" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8339/8245920121_3a2aedd46e.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I plugged the little guy into my phone!</div>

<br />
<div style="font: 16.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
Last weekend while taking a walk, I stopped at a stoop sale. A large bin had caught my eye and when I lifted up the cover...</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056692802/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="313" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8462/8056692802_a878cf9846.jpg" width="380" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="font: 16.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
it was filled to the top with toys from my childhood! </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056692021/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="330" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8029/8056692021_8ec41a9854.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="font: 16.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
Suddenly all of these wonderfully sweet, warm and loving memories came back to me that I had completely forgotten about.</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056691767/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="338" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8311/8056691767_b641ba99ed.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="font: 16.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
While looking through the toys with a big goofy smile on, the owner approached me and said, "You can take the whole bin home for five dollars"</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056691513/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="345" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8181/8056691513_ed419f9dcd.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px;">Five dollars?! I couldn't believe the deal I was getting! </span><br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056691249/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="357" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8320/8056691249_d15dcc44d4.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<div style="font: 16.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: center;">
Realistically, this was just a bin of old, cheap, plastic objects but to me... it was like gold.</div>
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056691520/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="330" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8029/8056691520_bd9fc18f9a.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px;"> I was able to bring back a flood of happy childhood memories that were locked up in a room inside my head… </span><br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/8056690755/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="330" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8032/8056690755_2085796595.jpg" width="380" /></a><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px;">and it only cost me five dollars to buy the key.</span></div>

It's a very simple equation... Bad Day + Balloons = Happiness!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Step 1- Find some pretty white flowers.<br />
( carnations work best! )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Step 2- With a sharp knife and a superhuman steady hand, split the end of the flower's stem into four sections and put each section in a different cup of colored water.<br />

Super fun news! I was contacted by Tampax to be part of their new campaign about stand out girls.<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/7514410026/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="225" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8426/7514410026_d06198e01a.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
They wanted to feature three creative, unique, real women with their art. <a href="http://www.thebeesandhoney.com/tampax-radiant" target="_blank">A street artist, yarn bomber, and balloon artist</a>. It's the first time they've ever used real women in their ads instead of models!<br />

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6838855254/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="266" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7058/6838855254_48f36c156c.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">In front of my building there's this little square of dirt and weeds that has been there forever.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6838855694/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="266" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7206/6838855694_6fae7132e8.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
In a city where almost everything is made of concrete, why have a tiny piece of land filled with weeds when we can have a tiny piece of land filled with flowers?!<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6984976737/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="266" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7209/6984976737_da2a30e104.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
So I planned a little night gardening party and had all the bare necessities... friends, flowers, gardening tools,<br />
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6984978495/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="266" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7056/6984978495_5f373ed865.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">fun gloves, fancy shoes,<br />

and long balloons to make silly balloon animals.<br />
( Dave is an Anglerfish, can't you <a href="http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110306213943/ideas/images/a/a5/Finding_nemo_angler_fish_20090113102801.jpg" target="_blank">tell</a>? )</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6984976881/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="266" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7064/6984976881_0779bcd1b3.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
It may be a small garden, but it adds color to my block and makes my neighbors smile...<br />
<br />
and that's all I really wanted for my birthday.</div>colormekatiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12151691150736858647noreply@blogger.com119tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554566457946554165.post-45446598933556260632012-03-05T14:27:00.000-05:002012-03-05T14:27:29.395-05:00Bits and pieces of my apartment<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/katesokoler/6804235682/" title="Untitled by colormekatie, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="500" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7187/6804235682_350a7fee75.jpg" width="321" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;"><br />
