we’ve been using the same dinnerware for about 8 years now (i’m getting old!) and am ready to look for something new. every single one of our plates and bowls have a chip or crack in it somewhere (i’m working with this set). so, i’m thinking that new dinnerware might be the perfect thing to ask for this christmas! (hint hint david!) my instincts automatically sent me straight to etsy to browse for beautiful handmade dinnerware.

i’ve been pretty much obsessed with japanese washi tape ever since it hit the market, so when i discovered sincol’s giant version for your walls i was ecstatic! you can finds loads of ideas on different ways to use regular washi tape (like right here) so my mind is running wild with this larger version. the adhesive is just sticky enough to stay put, but also allows for easy removal and repositioning. just think of all the things we could cover- desks, notebooks, doors and hula hoops!

i’ve been using spoonflower to get custom fabric printed for a long time now, so i was thrilled to hear about their launch of custom wallpaper and wall decals this week.

now we crafsters, designers and do-it-yourselfers can design our own wallpaper for any space, any time. and if you’re not a designer, you can still browse spoonflower’s thousands of designs made by independent artists. spoonflower’s wallpaper is also removable and eco friendly, which makes it perfect for renters (or anyone who just likes to change things up frequently)!

with an eye toward environmentally conscious consumers and moms looking to decorate nurseries and kids’ rooms, spoonflower has printed their wallpaper on PVC-free paper using durable, eco-friendly inks, so you can feel safe about using it in nurseries and kids’ rooms.

i’m glad that little golden polka dots are popping up all over the place. i think it’s their simplicity that makes them elegant and effortlessly timeless. they add just the right amount of class!

inspired by: elizabeth fink’s dotty board

glitter: adapted from pugly pixel’s bling glitter

you can bet that i’ve now added ‘beaten up old barnwood door’ to my thrift shop-yard sale list (yes,there is an actual list!). draped over the limbs of a sturdy tree and adorned with candlelight, i can’t think of a dreamier place for a garden meal. though i’m not sure where they found those most perfect woven baskets to sit on (photo 1), i’m thinking big slices of a tree trunk would do just as well for sitting stools.
