Billy Joel - The High School Graduate

In my effort to bring you interesting tidbits about a little bit of everything I stumbled upon this gem.

On June 25th, 1992 Billy Joel got his high school diploma. 25 years prior he overslept and missed finals in both English and Gym which made him ineligible to graduate. AKA - Bummer!

Here's to you Mr. Joel and your fabulous accomplishment!

I thought The Longest Time was an appropriate video to share today...

This music video is a blast..! How cheesy - I love it!

This notebook is a great way to recycle old record sleeves! From stellajames
This is such a cool print from suzannaanna using one of Joel's lyrics.

Record bowls are a great way to upcycle unused record and they make a great conversation piece - from auntiesideas

Have a great weekend my friends! See you Monday!

* Don't forge to check out the featured sale button in the right column! Cath Kidson has some lovely things!

*p.s. If you have been featured - or - if you just love Stunning feel free to grab my Brand New Button on the right! I spent a long time figuring that one out - hence why there is not a single page completed out of 12 for my summer class final... :)

* Ok, I'm done after this one! Stay tuned for a FABULOUS giveaway starting on Monday - from a past featured Etsy seller!
