there’s just something about this aesthetic that so perfectly explains the style i’ve been obsessed with lately.  isn’t it beautiful?  my little buffalo makes handmade, eco friendly greeting cards, calling cards, save the dates, and art prints that are simply stunning.  i’ve so enjoyed browsing her little shop and blog, i’ve admittedly caught myself smiling at the computer screen more than once!

Didn’t Caroline’s post just make you itch to get out in the garden or onto your balcony and plant something?  We put in our veg patch last week and every day (ok, about 5 times a day) I’m out there staring at the soil waiting for things to sprout!

I don’t know about you, but I can’t always use up all the seeds that come in a packet.  After all, who needs 200 heads of lettuce?  Some I’ll be keeping to sow later in the season, some I’d like to pass along to gardening friends.  Since I have a project up my sleeve that will use the seed packets to document the garden season I needed a way to save the extra seeds and it needed to be pretty!  So I came up with some seed envelopes.  Hope you like them!  Click here to download the pdf.
