The iceberg floating cottages are ridiculous! (By ridiculous, I mean ridiculously cool.)

I also love that suitcase chair.

I swoon over things constantly, so I have a weekly installment every Friday that includes my ever-growing list of swoon-worthy things. :)

I've been swooning over paper lanterns and light fixtures, there's something so beautiful and delicate about them that I love.

Oh my HOLY CRAP! I am obsessed with that suitcase chair, and I've been wanting to go crazy over some embroidery hoops for a long time now. And those Mason jar holders are killing me. In a good way.

Excellent post!

MelissaOK said...

I too am swooning over Mason jars. In fact I just bought some and did a post with a collection of mason jar photos (actually used one of the same pics you did). http://www.justfinejustdandy.com/2010/08/sweet-somethings-v.html
Also I LOVE Whiteberry Reinvented. Holly does some really lovely things to old furniture!

The room is Simon Bevan - that photo looks like it's scanned from Easy Living, the actual photo is on his too.

when i was younger i had a toooonn of old craft supplies from a closed down craft shop my friends grammy used to own. there were dozens and dozens of embroidery hoops - and i never knew what to make with them as an 8 year old!
my mom gave away a bunch of the stuff when i was a teenager, and i am heartbroken now that she gave away the hoops - i've been trying to get my hands on a bundle for ages so i can make a wall like that one for myself!

Nicole said...

Such beautiful inspiration! Everything is so fanciful!

That suitcase chair is so awesome! I went to her website, and all her stuff is great! I sent out the link to my company, who are all about reusing and recycling. Thanks for sharing! I just found your blog today, and I love it, being a designer and artist myself :}
