i recently found mary kilvert’s artwork and love the style of darling illustrations that are somehow perfectly suitable for either children or adults. i think this townhouse wallpaper would be beautiful in an entryway, or make for a sweet nursery. visit her shop to see more goodies, from tea towels and cushions to postcards and pocket mirrors.

are you ready to let your imagination run wild? at studio m.m.e. you’ll find antlered girls, magical fish and little boys with fox tails. megan eckman is the pen and ink illustrator behind these quirky imaginings and i find each of them making me smile and wonder. i love the small bursts of colored ink and extreme detail of her pen strokes. just like megan asks, why shouldn’t the art in your home make your smile (and be affordable)?

is this not the most unique, pretty and innovative calendar you’ve seen? i tend to live by the season (not by the month) so this one suits me just perfectly!
