Sewing & Simple Syndication

Sewing & Simple Syndication

These patterns really inspire me to start sewing again. The dress with the white lace around the neck reminds me of a dress that I fell in love with at Athropologie. The bodice was so cute and fit really well, but the bottom half was wonky and unflattering. All these photos are on Burda Style, [...]

Pretty Polygons

Pretty Polygons

Just realized that there is a definite theme to all the jewelry that I have been bookmarking lately. Apparently I love simple shapes (not all technically polygons, I know), preferably in brass. They’re all so pretty and feminine, without being fussy.

Love these products by Plus Minus Zero. Deliciously simple. Because a box that toasts bread needn’t be complicated.

Hellooo, Dream Office!

Hellooo, Dream Office!

Yes, in my dream office there is no need for proper office chairs with, you know, lumbar support because they are ugly. There are also no cords and very little paper in my imaginary workspace. Fortunately, there are a couple realistic elements here. The paint color, for one. I love it when people give the [...]

Inside: Ace Hotels

Inside: Ace Hotels

The cataloging of my favorite interiors continues with the Ace Hotel. There are locations in Seattle, Portland, New York, and Palm Springs. Aren’t these photos just the perfect mix of modern, industrial and vintage?

I would love to figure out how to achieve this balance. In my opinion, modern furniture can quickly become lifeless on its [...]

Sited: Here’s Looking at Me, Kid

Amanda Johnson, of the blog Here’s Looking at Me, Kid describes herself as “just a 20 something paper loving, thrift hunting, picture taking, beauty finding, healthy living, simple yet complicating girl”. I would like to add insanely inspiring and talented to that list. I have never been into scrapbooking, but this girl takes it to [...]

Inside: Parliament

Inside: Parliament

Ever since I came across this studio tour on Design Sponge, I have been so excited to create a new office space for Theory. I can’t get these photos (taken by the talented Lincoln Barbour) out of my head. There are more on Parliament’s site, including photos of the whole process.

We’re getting the keys for [...]

Two-Faced Watch

Two-Faced Watch

How cute is this watch from Anthropologie? I also appreciate that these are pieced together from different vintage watches and not manufactured to just look vintage. The reviews are mixed, however. Some loved the unique watches that arrived in the mail, but others were really upset. To be fair, the disappointed customers are more likely [...]

Pet Beds by Kilowatt Studio

Pet Beds by Kilowatt Studio

If I had a cat or small dog, this is just the sort of bed it would have. I came across these at Modern Karibou. I especially love the one on the left. Gorgeous, but $449 CAD. If you’re interested in making your own version (and you actually own a small pet), you can buy [...]

About

Britt McMaster is addicted to cucumbers. She and her husband, Ryan, live and work in a tiny apartment in downtown Vancouver, BC. Both Ryan and Britt love to write lists of all their ideas on action sheets, and they have pages and pages. They write especially quickly after they've each had a dry cappuccino or two. Most of those fanciful ideas will stay on paper, but Cucumbersome is Britt's platform to try some out.
