Friday Favorites.

Did you realize that today is the last Friday of May? It seems as though every time I am working on the Friday Favorites post it’s the first or last one of the month. It’s as if the rest of the weeks are but a blur. Wishing all of you a lovely weekend and a Happy, Happy Friday!

You and I…

We Make Sense.

wemakesense

Have you ever felt that way about someone? I don’t just mean your significant other. There are just those relationships in life. That friend who just gets you. The person who understands your sense of humor. The one who feels the same things you feel. The one who knows exactly what you’re thinking. You look at them and just feel that it totally makes sense that you’re together and in each other’s life. Perhaps this poster with the cross-stitch design would be a nice symbol of the bond you share.

Recycled Wood Art.

You have probably seen me feature Karl‘s clothing on here many times. He’s one of those guys whose work I just can’t get enough of. So, of course, when I saw the recycled wood installations he added to the shop recently, I knew it had to be featured here. I mean, come on, a polar bear with a tie {$200.00} and a shark wearing a jean jacket {$125.00}!?! Seriously. Karl took his original large scale drawings and mounted them on recycled wood. The polar bear, Mr. Stemke, is 16×48 inches and the shark is 34×14 inches. They even come with eye hooks so you can put ‘em up on the wall when they arrive. I love them all, but here’s a peek at the two I chose to share with you. Oh, you’re welcome.

Twigs & Honey.

Myra Callan is a romantic. I mean, she must be. Her site is full of beautifully designed adornments for your hair, body and even home {or “haven”, as she would say – see, romantic}. While they center around the bride and her party, I say, why not add these pieces to your everyday wear. We all have days where we just want to feel a little more feminine, spruce up an outfit, and get our pretty on. Take a peek…

Fighting Eel: Summer 2009.

The warm and sunny weekend weather we just experienced here in San Francisco reminded me of Fighting Eel‘s Summer Collection. Bright colors {with the staples, of course}, light flowing materials and easy laid-back styles of home I miss so much. Take a peek…

The Black Apple for Spring.

Emily‘s newest prints for Spring are dreamy. Leaves, flowers and soft colors make up the reproductions of The Black Apple‘s original paintings that were in her most recent shop update. I am constantly falling in love with each piece that Emily creates and these are an example of why…
