I was going to shoot a little video of the drawing, but I was trying something new with my hair and it ended up not looking so hot. So, I asked my husband if he would do the honors of picking the name out of the box.
So, without further ado, the winner of the Treat Rug Giveaway is...LaTarsha G.!
Congratulations LaTarsha! I will be sending you an e-mail with the information that I need to forward your name to the CSN Rug representative.

I love the type treatment on old jazz records.
I was shocked when I heard about Michael Jackson's death yesterday. My husband and I reminisced about all the songs we could remember (there were so many of them). Later, I spoke with my brother and reminisced even more. Michael Jackson's music was the soundtrack to many of our childhood memories in the 80s.
I was a big Michael Jackson fan. I had a poster of the pink album cover on the left, and of course the original Thriller album. Can't deny the cultural influence Michael Jackson had on pop culture. It's also interesting to think that I started out listening to his music on vinyl, then a cassette tape on my Walkman; Later a CD and now, his music is in my iTunes, iPod, and iPhone.
I had to commemorate him.
Love, love, love these really, really, cute dresses by Sika Designs! The designs are a mix of London's urban fashion with the beautiful textiles of Ghana, West Africa.

Also check out Sika Designs' other collections: Wonderland, Spellbound, and Goldcoast.
Office supplies can be fun to buy, but they can look a little humdrum. Girl of All Work creates office accessories with flair. File folders, page tags, and bookmarks never looked so good.
