Emily: Yay!

The sun came out!

Emily: Why I love Moo

Nancy turned my on to this site Moo, based in London that grabs images from Flickr or Etsy (and other places that do not concern me) and let's you make your own printed materials. My pictures show a set of postcards that I ordered to send to my customers to thank them for their business.

Emily: stupid winter!

It would seem that the weather is taking its cues from the market...I took this picture in the front yard yesterday and it was cold and dark and rainy. It looks like a black and white, but it is in full color, folks.

Emily: Cars

Okay, so I promise not to post about Etsy all day...but.....

I love these little Avon cologne bottles, they are the man version of that yellow birdie perfume bottle you sold at SITE, to Heidi if memory serves....

Emily: I love these prints. Period.

I was thrilled to discover these vintage prints, which I just posted to my Esty shop. Graphic, perfectly colored and playfull, my favorite part is how their titles are a simple statment with a period; "Coulds." , "A Dandelion." and "Stilts." Love! Love!

Emily: My vanity

Emily: Wall inspirations

Emily: Fireside Folly

This morning I am not feeling all that well, so one of my first tasks of the day was to make a fire, and now I am tending it every few minuets to ensure that it lasts all day.

There are few companions better than a fire that pops and cracks and hisses. Here are some images of fireside vignettes from my inspiration binder.

Emily: Carolyn Quartermaine

These images are from the French home of designer Carolyn Quartermaine as seen in Vogue Living Australia, which costs me a fortune but is worth every penny. I love how feminine and serene her home is without having a "shabby chic" (or as my mom call is "sh*tty chic"...) look or feel. And that pink plastic tray on top of the Saarinen table reminds me of my childhood and the sweet smell of pink plastic goodies from the Sanrio store (before Hello Kitty items were sold at Target - wait...also before Shabby Chic items were at Target as well!)
