i have not been very good about blogging lately - i actually have a backlog of potential blog entries. the desire to actually post them seems to have left me. i'll try to be better. here are a couple of cool things i've found online lately:

jimbo's front porch - this fella makes really lovely crochet hooks to earn money to renovate his old family property. nice hooks.

terrariums are here!

i've made my first few paula-hayes-inspired terrariums and planters, and i'm very excited!

triple totem kitty

i just bought this. need i say more?

cool swedish fabric

check out mairo for cool fabrics from sweden. they're not that easy to find for sale in the u.s., but they do have them here.

three cool things for home

it's a factory shaped vase! someone buy this for me, please.
inside out glasses. they are available for champagne, as well.
cube shaped jigger for measuring your booze. cute and affordable.

iznik tiles

i saw these lovely tiles at ann sacks. they're on the decorative side, but i think they're super cool. they have lots of other styles, too.

floor to heaven

luke and i are looking for a rug to soften the sounds of little puppy feet that emanate from our apartment. this one, by floor to heaven, is inspired by russian folk art. i love it, but it may be a bit to flamboyant for our place (not to mention costly...).
