When It Rains
My plan to share some shots of our new place has been thwarted by the never-ending rain. Yesterday the sun peeked out momentarily through the greyness but by the time I turned my camera on, it was gone. As a firm believer in natural light, I have decided to wait out the rain and instead [...]
Teach a Man (or Girl!) to Fix
I have realized that my most popular posts have all been project-related, whether it’s hacking some bedside tables or crafting a necklace. That must mean that you are all pretty interested in doing things yourself. Who isn’t, really? It’s so rewarding to successfully tackle projects you weren’t sure you could. For years and years, my [...]
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.

Fortunately, there are a couple realistic elements here. The paint color, for one. I love it when people give the [...]

I would like to add insanely inspiring and talented to that list. I have never been into scrapbooking, but this girl takes it to [...]
Japanese Masking Tape + Eva
Looking for a reason to buy some (more) Japanese masking tape? Yeah, me too. I covered these tiny binder clips with some of the tape and they are pretty adorable. Almost makes me want to get organized. Almost. Maybe these would help, too: These clothes pins made by Whitney of Whisker Graphics remind me of [...]
I’m In Trouble
Seriously in love with these vintage-inspired trouble lights. Wouldn’t one of these lovelies look beautiful strung above a wooden table and tolix chairs? Of course, with such a setup one would be forced to eat aged chevre and torn bits of crusty bread with a glass of red wine for every meal… Sounds perfect to [...]
