Yes, oh internet. I have been holding out on you with wedding photos. It is for the very good reason that it is going to be featured on another blog! So it's coming up, and I'll re-post here. So hold your breath - many photos are coming!
Have you seen this delicious website? I am in love with these prints, especially Plasma Kid, above. Just lovely.
I know, another trend animal. The owl. But my friends, I loved owls long before Harry Potter and before they were hungover. My love stemmed from two wonderful and unique facts: owls can turn their heads around 360 degrees (don't correct me on that if I'm wrong. I enjoy the myth) and that their collective noun in 'parliament'. Awesome.
Well isn't this just freaking perfect. I feel the compulsive need to go and buy red crayons in bulk.
Well isn't this little guy just so charming? I think it's love.
Given that it's Christmas, I thought a little giveaway wouldn't go astray. I'm giving away 5 little packs of papers, beads, cards, and stickers - each is small, but comes with fun trinkets for decorating presents, making cards and turning into new projects.
Could this be the perfect nail polish for summer? It's so metallic-y and shiny, I wonder whether I would just look at my nails all day. Which would be weird. And kind of awesome.
This extraordinary apartment makes me gasp. As someone who has lived in a very small studio before, and who has also spent many years working from home, the idea you could delineate the two areas so well is drool-worthy. Yes, I work in an office now, but this haunts my dreams still!
It could be that I'm feeling all loved up after getting married, but this chair by Markus Krauss strikes me as the most perfect house companion. One or two people can chat, read and cuddle (the latter is harder by yourself, I guess) and it just looks perfect. This chair would be such a lovely addition to our apartment. If it could fit a cuddling rocking chair...
I've recently discovered a fabulous new website called NeedSupply, which has rocketed a few things onto my Christmas list. (Namely these boots and this necklace). To be honest, I feel like I've had such a wonderful year that presents are a moot point, but when family asks, and you need to supply (ha!) some suggestions, I would suggest a meander through this site.
*As always, I have never (sadly!) been paid or compensated for my gushing. I just like things, and share them here.
Oh wow. That's all really. Just wow. (Also, can you guess this person works for Martha Stewart?!)
When we were on our honeymoon, we met some lovely people who since shared their underwater photos with us. This is exactly what we saw in Fiji - isn't it just wonderful?
It could be that it's because this is a long week, but this layering of greys, and comfy looking bed makes me sleepy and happy all at once. Very Princess and the Pea, n'est-ce pas?!
After having most excellent diaries for 2009 and 2010, the race is on to find a new one for 2011. Yes, I like to hunt in November - what of it?! The one above is pretty gorgeous, with a lovely hot air balloon. But the one below is in front by a whisker - who could resist the mantra "Don't you worry about a thing"? Not me!!
I bought these little coloured plants on the weekend and potted them up. Does anyone know what they actually are?! I was so overcome with exclamations when I saw them ("Little trees! Different colours!" etc and replay) that I forgot to ask... I hope I don't kill them - this is always a risk in my house. [EDITED TO SAY: They are Celosias! Thanks Cassi - how cool are my readers?!]
And I also found this little guy. He really looks like a Banksy to me - can anyone verify?
Yes, I'm back - with a post on open shelves, no less! It's been a busy few weeks settling back in after the wedding and honeymoon. Blissful, but very, very busy. The strong blacks and whites look fabulous against this tree-green, don't they? The pastels below are pretty wonderful, too. Happy week, blogland!
