One Year Blogoversary!!

Wow – how time flies!  This is the one year blogoversary for The Chenault Life.  I have loved having this creative outlet and am so thankful to my loyal readers and followers.  One of my favorite things about the end of the year is reflection.  So with that said, here are my favorite posts from 2010 in case you missed them!

  1. Thanks to the help of Kristin, we turned a plain white canvas into Lee’s Man Wall.
  2. Kitty’s modeling career was launched when he was featured on Desire to Inspire’s Pet’s on Furniture this summer.  What a hottie.
  3. Did you see this video?  It’s SO cute.  I love this precocious little boy and well intentioned but very confused parents.  Check it out for a good laugh.

Trashy

I saw these amazing pictures here, and could not believe these beautiful pieces are made form soda cans. Their purpose is to show the vast amounts we consume in our daily lives. Check out the post below for more information.

Running The Numbers   via

Photographer Chris Jordan explores the phenomenon of American consumerism by making large-format, long-zoom artwork from the most mindblowing data. Cans Seurat depicts 106,000 aluminum cans in the form of George Seurat’s A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte; 106,000 being the number of cans used in the US every thirty seconds. Mindblowing indeed.

2010 Top Ten Lists :: Best Commercial

One thing I like about the end of the year is the reflection.  Many publications come out with the Top Ten Best and Worst Lists.  This Times article in extremely comprehensive and interesting with 50 lists including everything from “Top Ten Albums”  to “Top Ten Medical Breakthroughs” with plenty in between.

One of such lists was Top Ten Commercials and Google’s ‘Parisian Love’ was featured.  This commercial debuted at the 2010 Superbowl and won the hearts of millions.   Here it is again for your viewing pleasure…

Now with me 1, 2, 3 …ahhh!

Sienna Miller:: NYE Inspiration

I’ve admired Sienna Miller’s quirky fashion sense and enjoy reading her interviews like this one as she’s funny and fresh.  I loved when she wore this Burberry black and gold dress to the 2006 Costume Institute so much that it’s inspired my NYE choice from Rent the Runway.
