Maybe it’s because I just read Molly Wizenberg’s book in which she fondly recalls memories of Paris as a child, but I have been loving the A chair by Tolix lately. It’s like bringing a Parisian bistro home. They’re sold at Design Within Reach here and, with for slightly cheaper at Pottery Barn here. I [...]
Norwegian photographer Trine Thorsen’s portfolio is absolutely stunning. Each photo makes me think, well, I want to go to there. The other day I bought a little record cabinet (for Ryan’s thinned out, but still huge, record collection) and the woman who was selling it had a fantastic vintage metal locker as well. We passed [...]
This photo is from anthropologie, seen here. I absolutely love the feel of this photo – the feel of worn-down vintage mixed with clean and modern. Mmm. But these items are just a wee bit out of my budget. So I decided to track down some (much) cheaper alternatives to create a similar look. (No [...]
I’m so thrilled to see that someone has knitted themselves some poufs! The DWR Flocks Poufs have been taunting me for too long now. Thankfully, the clever creators over at Pickle have posted a tutorial in English (it’s a Norwegian blog). Now I just need to learn how to knit…. anyone want to knit me [...]

Little wooden cross stitch pendants by Karyn at Make Something. Fantastic idea. Hopefully she’ll sell the blanks!
Shoe Market in Marrakesh, by amyswear Morocco has always fascinated me. I would very much like to go there one day. It seems to be the most interesting juxtaposition (my high school art teacher would be so happy to hear me use that word) of African, European and Middle Eastern cultures. Ancient structures wrapped in [...]
(Photo: Tonya Goodwin, via Poetic Home) Ryan and I are book hoarders. Our shelves are filling up fast. As part of our recovery plan, we finally signed up for library cards last night. One book that jumped out at me was The Wabi-Sabi House – The Japanese Art of Imperfect Beauty by Robyn Griggs Lawrence. [...]
I stumbled across this idea in an older issue of Dwellmagazine (June 08). It was mentioned in a house tour that the designers hand-cut Flor carpet tiles into hexagons and affixed them to the walls to soften corners and edges (for the safety of the homeowner’s baby). You can see the tour of the loft [...]
