Recently, I visited Pigment a wonderful shop located in North Park, San Diego.They custom design and install these incredible wall gardens. Obviously they are perfect for the city and small spaces, but honestly I’d love to have the whole side of my house done like this… my girlfriend suggested getting one for the bathroom. The store is also filled with great gift giving ideas. Lovely!
Sprucing up your kitchen? Need new furnishings for patio parties? What about festive dinner wear or just some new tea towels? Crate & Barrel should be your first stop! Their new line is fun, festive and full of glorious color!!! I had to get a few little pieces myself… I just couldn’t resist!
I admit that I am in a very romantic phase and therefore attracted to a certain kind of beauty. When I saw this book, I immediately put it on my wish list. Olaf Hajek, an international known illustrator, from Berlin has a new book out. It’s filled with dream-like paintings/illustrations which again blur the distinction between art/craft/design. Check out his web site and be inspired!
Although Spring has just officially started, fashion could not wait to start dressing for the season. We are loving all the fresh flowers! Wouldn’t this wedding dress be perfect for a spring wedding. Oh! It would look adorable with this feminine cardigan, both from J.Crew.
The new wedding trends are beautiful! According to The Knot, this year we will see; Classic White Weddings, Homespun Weddings, and Vintage Inspired Weddings. We love these “Vintage” inspired ideas. Check out The Knot for more of this years wedding trends and themes.I think I hear wedding bells…
Words alone can not express how in love we are with these barrettes. After seeing these in Real Simple magazine, we rushed to etsy to purchase them, as did over 1,000 other people. Mai McKemy’s store 4thesparrowsnest is currently empty, but we are eagerly awaiting the arrival of her new goodies!
In Edward Burtynsky’s words “These images are meant as metaphors to the dilemma of our modern existence; they search for a dialogue between attraction and repulsion, seduction and fear. Our dependence on nature to provide the materials for our consumption and our concern for the health of our planet sets us into an uneasy contradiction. For me, these images function as reflecting pools of our times.” I could not have said it any better. These photographs are stunning. See the documentary… Manufactured Landscapes (2007) Edward Burtynsky, it is amazing.
There will be no more weeping losers, once you visit RE. This incredible store has a bevy of beautiful trinkets and treasures! Most items are found, but they also have new enchanting delights. Ideal for holiday shopping if you haven’t found the perfect gift, for that special someone. Enjoy!
