Loving all this super cute art from APAK. Aaron and Ayumi Piland are a husband and wife collaborative art group behind APAK. They create the most wonderful things! Aw I just love husband and wife Etsy shops…

Happy Monday! Over the weekend I was lucky enough to stumble upon a bunch of old toy arrows at an antique market, so I’m using them as the inspiration for this post. Here are some arrow items on Etsy I love!

Bent Arrow ring from PoisonAppleNYC

Red, White, & Black Arrows from Verla Ivans

Arrow tee-shirt and briefs sets from Recession.

Check out this gorgeousness from White Owl. Sisters Courtney and Christina make the prettiest handmade jewelry using new and recycled/repurposed materials.

I love Nadinoo, a unique London based clothing label, where each style is carefully designed and handmade by British designer Nadia Izruna. I want everything. The fabric on the blouse and dress are beyond gorgeous.

Trace is a young crafter/blogger who recently caught my eye. You can see his lovely photography on the it’s all just menagerie blog. (I’m obsessed with the chandelier photo!) He also makes some very fine vintage recycled journals available in his Etsy shop! Right now in his shop 20% of all profits now go to the National Wildlife Foundation in support of cleaning up the oil spill and helping the animals in the Gulf of Mexico. Bravo!

Ah so many pretty fun things to look in Kristena Derrick’s Etsy shop Thimbly Things. I’m such a fan of embroidery hoop art and I really love the fun patterned fabric she uses. These give me warm fuzzies.

This morning I’m headed off to Key West with my mom and sister for a much needed vacation. This is the first time since last August I will actually have a week I am not working or even thinking about working. I am beyond excited. Thought I’d post these adorable vintage Florida and Key West postcards from The Vintage Plum Shop to get in the spirit!

Hope everyone had a nice relaxing memorial day weekend! I spent mine lounging around and leisurely starting to pack up my apartment for the big move. I can’t believe it’s June already, this summer is going to fly by! Thought I’d post some some eye candy from Honeytree Photography. The poppy pods are super neat!

I love love love Retro Whale and couldn’t resist post some of their newer stuff. Their artwork is so fun!

Being a huge Wes Anderson fan and also a lover of coasters, these seem too good to be true. The Royal Tenenbaums is definitely one of my all-time favorite movies. Ah so good!!!

This hand-knitted armchair slip cover from Biscuit Scout looks so cozy and cute! These are made by knitting with multiple strands of wool and huge needles to create giant over sized knitting. You can have them made totally custom for any chair. So cool.

The Sunday Times Market is an Etsy vintage shop run by David and Ashley, a husband & wife design team. They certainly have some of best product photography I’ve seen on Etsy. I love all the mid century items. Just looking at their shop you really get a sense that they took a lot of care in choosing what to present in their shop. I want everything!



Kate from For Me, For You has featured these amazing arrows before and now has a set in her adorable apartment! Jealous!
