Carmel is one of those bloggers that has post after post of amazing projects. Every last one is good. I’m crazy for her son’s Union Jack Headboard, and Oversized Chalkboard Calendar…but it’s her love of gold that sealed our friendship.

Ain’t no shame in my game…….The Vampire Diaries is legit television.
What’s your ringtone?
It’s the default tone – I know – so boring.
How old were you when you had your first kiss? Was it meh or toe-curling?
I was 14 and it was pretty amazing.
Do you have any siblings, and if so, where are you in the birth order?
I have a half sister and half brother – on my dad’s side. I’m the baby, but I’m my mom’s only child.
What physical quirk were you born with?
I was born with a birthmark that looked like a bruise on my left knee. You can’t really see it now, but when I was little it was really noticeable.

I’d blog. 😉
