Origami boxes

These make me want to stop full-time work and just make origami all day. Well, at least for some of it. :)

Citybook Bookcase

Wow. This is waaayyy out of my budget but this Italian bookcase is so beautiful. You can also set it up all different ways - found here via the very excellent Shoebox Dwelling.

Black and white nesting dolls

It's funny how some people think that kid's toys need to be plastic and garish colours. i love wooden toys and these black and white nesting dolls are pretty fabulous.

Fiddle Figs

I still really need to go and buy a big Fiddle Fig like this one. The only ones you can buy online are super small and I haven't worked out how to fit this in our car/convince the Pal that he'll love going and buying it with me! In the meantime, I'm going to look at this picture a lot :)

Gorman Winter

I had forgotten just how much I like Gorman until I had a quick look at their website and fell in love all over again. And given that summer in San Francisco is actually similar to winter in Sydney, weather-wise, these outfits kind of look perfect.

Organizing manifesto

I liked this poster. I don't think I'd hang it up in my house for fear of freaking out The Pal, but I might just keep it bookmarked for those days when organizing seems powerful. Um, yes, every day.

Truths

Somewhere in the past few years, I've become obsessed with roses. I literally cross the street to smell them, and feel like i'm growing into my Mum and Grandma - both rose-crazed, too - which is a beautiful feeling. This isn't even a metaphor for me: it's a life rule.

Come fly with me

This Markus Lupfer jumper is out-of-control gorgeous. Of course it's sold out (just as well, really) but eugh - so gorgeous.

Geometric print

What beautiful light and I love that print in the pale wood frame. One part cat, one part fox, one part awesome.

Colour matching

I love the way the vase matches the flag in the painting here - such a nice, sweet touch and it really makes the corner come together.
