Seems to be a theme for me at the moment.

Found these beautiful images from inside the home of etsy illustrator Myrte de Zeeuw.

Be inspired:

Once again one of my favourite blogs, Where the Lovely Things are, has given me some joy, with a post about an adorable little owl that climbs around on furniture.

Found at beautiful etsy store 5 Gardenias this glamorous little owl is photographed getting up to mischief in drawers, on tables and with tea cups! Far more interesting than just on a plain white background.

What are your favourite etsy accounts? Or do you sell some goodies yourself? Send me links and recommendations!

Tender Letters

Friday, April 24, 2009

Tender Letters is my favourite LiveJournal in the world and I just had to share these gorgeous photographs from inside her dreamy home.

Beautiful!

I think one of my favourite things to do is add touches to our home to make it cozy and unique to us. Currently working on a wall full of muddled framed pictures, art and editorials. When I'm satisfied with it I might share with you guys!

Happy days!

Abby Try Again

Tuesday, April 14, 2009

Abby lives in Portland, Oregon and takes lots of pretty pictures of everyday things, then sells them in her online shop found here. She's a self taught photographer and all her camera's are bought from thrift shops over the years.

I think the results are lovely:

Long weekend finds

What did you do for Easter?

My blog is growing up- this marks my 101st post! It's funny that something I just started out for myself has grown so much and that people actually enjoy what I have to say and show. Thank you so much to everyone who visits and leaves such lovely comments! Here's to the next 101!

And to celebrate, a few little pictures that have made me smile recently, taken by Swedish blogger The Neverending Story
