Disney Love
Two beautiful videos which make me both love Disney and people's imaginations. Happy Friday!

Mid Century Rocker
Well this chair is just delightful. It is both excruciating and a relief that Urban Outfitters don't deliver furniture to Australia.

Le Flaneur
Le Flâneur (music by The XX) from Luke Shepard on Vimeo.
This makes me so nostalgic for Paris. The Sacre Coeur, the Notre Dame, the Seine - take me back! Please!

Trunks in rooms
Loving this big old trunk. I bought a similar one recently, and I have yet to show it to you: it's in a spot which seems a bit diabolically bad for photographing, but I'll do my best soon. I do love how these two are stacked on top of each other...

Tara Donovan
When I first saw these images, I thought they were stunning, swirling circles drawn in pencil. On closer inspection, I realised they are made up of small pins! Beautiful work by artist Tara Donovan.

The Magic Spoon
Never one to walk past good design, this spoon seems just perfect to me. Neat, tidy and delicious for hot chocolate, don't you think?

Happy, happy bedroom
All, the Design Files does it again. Lucy manages to find the best homes, and this bedroom is such great inspiration: I'm thinking of making some more poms in different colours and hanging them in our house. What a beautiful grey colour. (And those polka dots!)

Help Japan
Like most of us, I've been deeply upset by the earthquake in Japan. I've donated to the Red Cross appeal (which my work gift-matches, effectively doubling my donation, which is amazing). In case you're feel like helping the beautiful country, the artful Swedish photographer Hilda Grahnat has set up a shop called 'Help Japan' which sells some of her prints and postcards. I'd thoroughly recommend donating or buying some of her prints: you are both helping Japan, and supporting a beautiful artist at the same time.

Birdcage Window
My beautiful cousin Sarah made her window into a birdcage - and was kind enough to let me gush about it here. I adore it - the hanging cranes, the cool colour on the walls. One day I'll have to show you the rest of the house...

Packing for Trips?
Have you seen these nifty little devices? I'm wondering whether I'd use them or not - but my uber-organised self kind of loves the idea of one in my bag...

Indochine Writing Desk
You know I can't walk past a good writing desk. And this one is no different. I love how the top looks as though it would lift off, and be portable. Dreamy.

Swedish Bedding for Hay
These are breathtaking! Such crumpled, pastel glory - love that these are feminine, but abstract and linear, too. Denmark has just got to stop being too fashionable - it's painful not to be there and see it all!

Myths and Stamps
I grew up reading Greek and Roman myths, and haven't stopped being an ancient history nerd. I also used to collect stamps as a young girl, and my 10 year old self would have freaked out at these magnificent, modern creations. Ok, I'm probably still freaking out.

Stationery Houses
Completely adorable stationery organisers in the form of little houses! I love how pens fit in the chimneys.
