A Lovely Loft

If you haven't seen it yet, I wanted to turn your attention to the Sneak Peek over at Design*Sponge today.

The loft is a converted 1800's plow factory in Atlanta. There are over ONE THOUSAND panes of glass and is now used by the owners as a guest house and photograph studio.






What a beautiful space. It's not a place I would feel comfortable living, but I think it is just a dream to look at.

Beautiful Books

So, I know these have been out for a while, but I wanted to turn your attention to them in case you didn't know.

Penguin recently came out with a set of clothbound classics for children (we have a set of their "adult" classics), which are available exclusively at Anthropologie. Unfortunately, they are not available online any longer, so RUN to your nearest Anthro and pick some up for your neice, nephew, son, daughter, brother, sister or inner child. I'm definitely going tomorrow to see what they have left.



Available titles are:

The Secret Garden
Anne of Green Gables
The Adventures of Robin Hood
Peter Pan
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
The Wind in the Willows

Belle & Boo

Speaking of adorable...

Last May, the husband I went to New York, where I couldn't resist loading up on paper goods. Of course!

One of the things I brought home was a simply adorable notebook by Belle & Boo, with this insanely cute illustration.


The reasons I love this notebook are three-fold:
1. Duh, it's adorable.
2. Bunny!
3. The husband and I like to imagine that this is what our future daughter will look like.

Back to the present, I stumbled across the Belle & Boo site and fell even more in love with their products.

Seriously thinking I may have to get these for a future Christmas card.


There are way too many cute things on their site, and I think I would take every one. But I will leave you with one last image to melt your heart.

Swoon

It's holiday card card time and I still have not picked mine out - a must-do this week! For now, I am just feasting on the eye candy of Disney illustrator Ralph Hulett's gorgeous Christmas cards.

I wish, wish, wish these were for sale today. They are too precious for words.

Holiday Wreath

I really love this hand-made felted wreath form West Elm, but unfortunately, it's out of stock. I think my next project will be figuring out how to craft a similar looking one for myself.


What holiday crafts are you making/have you made?
