Blueberries and Pomegranates


I had grand ideas of being super productive today, but instead I spent most of the day in my pajamas. I did however make a very delicious blueberry crumble, which I ate with some frozen yogurt and loved every minute of. Speaking of love, I really enjoy the wallpaper that I posted above. This is 'Pomegranate' wallpaper designed by William Morris, produced by Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co in 1866. I found this image on dis-order-ed's flickr site and I think the color combination is delightful.

"this way"



This is a new series of miniature paintings that I have been working on titled "this way". Although the process has been a little tedious, it can also been somewhat meditative too. If your looking for a little direction in your life or know someone that could use some, this could be the perfect piece of art for you. The first couple paintings of this series will be up in our etsy shop in the next couple days. "This way" to our etsy shop!

Lovely




These are terrariums created by Christina of TheOakLeaves etsy shop. They are amazing little treasures that I would love to have in my home. Plus, Minnesota cold and winter is soon upon us and a little green can never hurt. I think I may try to make my own. If anyone has any suggestions on how to create and nurture a terrarium, shoot me an e-mail or write a comment. Good night and I hope that you have someone or something to make you smile this week.

Beautiful Rugs!!



I would love to have one of these rugs designed by Magdalena Lubinska and Michal Kopaniszyn. The designers are inspired by folk motifs, yet the rugs definitely have a modern feel to them and the colors are amazing! Very nice.
