all new: plaeful erasable frames wall decals

I am so excited for my friend Agnes, from the blog Hello, Wonderful. She asked for my help earlier this year to illustrate a new Wall Decal of frames that was erasable – so kids can create as many frame-worthy illustrations as they want! I think the results are pretty fantastic, don’t you? Each Erasable Frames […]

cushions full of kitty cats

Birdie has just discovered the power of cat videos via Pinterest. Her squeals were cute in the beginning, she is such an animal lover. When it turned into her recounting each video with a blow by blow description, it began to wear thin! Still, it’s obvious she has a thing for cats – like lots […]

monster alphabet

Usually a stuffed menagerie of animal letters makes me think of kids rooms – let’s write their name or add their initials, right? Somehow, I think the Monster Alphabet creatures would be better suited to something a little loftier. Perhaps it’s the extremely unique handmade approach to each individual letter. Or maybe it’s the price, […]

with a name like blooey hobbel horse …

It’s got to be interesting. This rocking horse is more than interesting, it’s pretty much awesome. If you love a more modern look, then Blooey’s Hobbel horse clearly falls in that camp. Plus, it looks lightweight, portable, and potentially indestructible. Think it would work indoors and outdoors? On top of that, just think how easy […]

your last bit of ice cream pillows

It is the last day of August, which to me, is synonymous with the last day of Summer. I don’t care what the equinox says, and I know September will still be fairly warm and sunny for the most part, but when August is done, everything shifts. It’s only fitting that we celebrate this last […]

pillows that come in all flavors

Average pillows, poufs, and bean bags are ok. They serve their purpose. But I think any kid would agree that Woouf! has made some much more appetizing options! But where do we start? The bean bags shaped like cupcakes, ice cream cones, or maybe a giant tennis shoe? Or, you can start smaller and choose […]

save your cents with these piggies & more

Birdie found a stash of spare change in the car today, and spent a significant amount of time counting, and sorting her riches into one of her piggy banks. It turns out we have several – thanks in part to a favorite paint-your-pottery shop in our favorite weekend spot. One of these days I’m going to […]

let’s be compatriots

I like to think my home has some life to it, and these Compatriot Stools would definitely add to that vibe. I prefer the subtler stool with all four legs on the floor, but the other version, with hands holding up the seat, is pretty sweet too. Or maybe one of each?

make it: handknit wool roving cushions

Birdie and I were knitting yesterday, and boy did it feel good to knit side by side! I’ve taught her the basic knit stitch a couple of different times over the past year or two, but I wasn’t sure it really sunk in. Well today, she was on a roll, doing it all by herself with just […]

chasing paper for your walls

I have been a firm wallpaper-hater for years. I’ve seen too many home improvement shows where someone else’s decor choices mean backbreaking labor for the new homeowners! Why would I ever want to choose something so permanent for my walls? I’m too indecisive for that. Luckily, I’ve found Chasing Paper. They make removable wallpaper. Actually, […]

Ava & Yves is a stationery and housewares brand based in Germany, and these brand new pillows are actually similar to some of their prints. […]
