the best things

the best things this week

June 15, 2013

I thought I’d share a round up every now and again of things that have caught my eye lately.

This week:

  • Emily Henderson’s living room reveal has me wanting a jewel-toned sofa.  Perhaps in emerald green!
  • Dave and I have always joked about this, but the ladies at A Beautiful Mess have gone ahead and made it reality:  a piñata filled with tiny bottles of liquor.
  • I found this amazing Etsy shop of Moroccan Boucherouite and Beni Ourain rugs:  Bring Your Own Sunshine.  Isn’t that a great name for a shop?  I love it.  The rugs they source are like works of art. I almost wanted to keep this find to myself. Almost.
  • I want to go to a camp for grown-ups.
  • What a clever idea for a photographer’s business card.  I am a fan of slides.
  • Speaking of slides, in case you missed it:  a teeny tiny, adorable projector for your Instagram pics.
  • Because I have a fascination for the creepy and sometimes grotesque, I can’t stop looking at these paintings of 1950s suburban homes via 20thCenturyGoods, also on Etsy.  (Can you tell it’s been a rough week?  Etsy is my escape.  It’s like a getting lost in a great little shop crammed with interesting things.  Some of which may have turned up in the mail already this week and are pictured above.  Oops!)
  • I just started playing with Over.  (To create the title pic here.)  It’s very cute but find myself wanting even more fonts and will likely use it sparingly.  I love the convenience though.  I’m curious what you all use.  Any recommendations for those days when I don’t want to edit photos on my laptop?  Let me know!

Happy weekend everyone!
