Oddest invite

I can't decide whether this wedding invite is clever or just eclectic. Click the link to view it larger.

Bee shower

I'm fawning over this bee-themed baby shower. All it really takes to catch my eye is a buffet table of apothecary jars, so imagine how happy this makes me.

Vincent Shoes

Vincent shoes are getting great reviews from moms all over the interwebs for being a shoe that can hold up and look good until a toddler grows out of it. Since my toddler positively hammers his shoes, I'd love to see what all the talk is about. Plus they are having a summer clearance right now - up to 75% off.

nothing elegant

This String Spool Set has me longing for a less-chaotic place to craft. I love the ikebana scissors!

pin curls

You know what I love about the internet?
Tutorials for hairstyles.

Geneartogy

With my recent inclination to love all things geneology-chart-ish, the new Geneartogy charts featured on Design Mom were the bees knees to me.

Alice Supply Co

I've been scouring the interwebs trying to come up with a cheaper version of a cute toolbox (for my floral design gear), but it doesn't seem to exist. The Alice Supply Co. Version may just have to sit and wait until I can afford it.

Long Time Coming

Not dead, just busy transitioning into Summer and vacation season.

But I did discover that Repetto has moved way beyond the basic dance shoe.
Think I could justify this with my ballet-workout DVD?

Tom Palumbo

I've been just dying over the photostream for fashion photographer Tom Palumbo. His fashion spreads from the 50's and 60's are just about the most fun your eyes can have.

fern and lola

Stunning hand-painted tablecloths by some lovely ladies, including my friend Leith.

Manhattan Cruisers

Thank You Kelly McCaleb for inflicting me with major bike envy. If only I lived where there were sidewalks! (Curse you phila-suburbia)

white leather

If I didn't feel insanely guilty at the thought of spending this much money on a pair of shoes that will fit for approximately 5 minutes, then I'd have loved to see these on my baby boy.

Roadside

Dear mysterious wealthy benefactor,
Should you ever choose to exist, and to furnish for me a whimsical room, please include this clock.
That is all.

Cade Martin

This photo by Cade Martin (spotted on Black*Eiffel) made me smile inside.

Sunday Suppers

I tried this salmon recipe on Sunday and it was amazingly good for how simple it was to make. (The basil-lime water recipe was good too, although I was the only one willing to drink it).

Cassia Beck

Sort of crushing on Cassia Beck's photography. Via Lake Jane.

Chalcedony Mist

This ring is lovely to me. By ERMoriginals.

cocoons

I love the texture and detail in Cricket Creation's baby cocoons. They are rarely in stock, they sell so quickly!
