hadley hutton...so much gorgeousness

airy sweet light rich imaginative

dreamlike

fluttery feminine

fairytale-ish

modern vintage

are a few words that come to mind

when i look at hadley hutton's work

gorgeously inspiring these make me so happy

and i want all of them

are a few other words i can think of too.

for all you (luckies) in portland oregon..

and

for the rest of us..

hope you have a fabulous weekend

full of things that make you happy.

so much love

***

do you know people that just seem to have

extra large hearts..

with so much love to give

as if they have a never-ending well of kindness

and generosity inside?

***

you know the ones..

they're always giving and giving

and

thinking of others

***

..taking the time to say

and do kind things

in the most generous

(and usually surprising)

ways..

***

they are full of life

noticing beauty in everything around them

(and best of all..they share it with the rest of us..)

***

i have been so incredibly lucky to become friends

with one of those super extra special beautiful people

and when i say beautiful

i mean utterly gorgeous inside and out

(just take a peek at her flickr site

and you'll see what i mean..seriously..you'll be so very inspired)

***

cori inspires me constantly

with her beautiful photos

and entertaining little journal entries..

(some are so heart felt and some are hilarious)

she recently sent me the most amazing envelope full of love

and sweet wishes

made of her gorgeous photos and postcards

..completely out of the blue..

and well, just because.

somehow she knew i needed it.

(she's just like that)

***

oh and did i mention

that we haven't even met in person yet??

(the online community is an amazing thing..)

thank you sweet cori.

i'm so happy to call you my friend.

:)

now for a little more inspiration,

please do yourself the favor of visiting cori's beautiful shop

full of her art and vintage goodies.

maybe you can become her friend too.
