I’m falling in love with all the darling vintage clothing from Swanee Grace. So many gorgeous finds here! I think that last little cream one I posted would make a really cute wedding dress. She also has a beautiful blog with lots of wonderful vintage inspirations.

Happy Friday! Here’s a fun bitty drawing I did the other day. The bite mark on top is from my bunny Rothko, who apparently isn’t a fan of kitty drawings. Have  a great weekend everyone!

Yokoo1

I’ve been drooling over craft superstar Yokoo’s creations for a while now and realized I’ve never blogged her wonderful work! Her photographs are are so beautiful and artistic I would totally frame them and put them on my walls as art. I want her pom pom necklace and hair bow so freaking bad!

Spent some of Sunday afternoon at the library in search of illustrative inspiration. I got stuck in the folklore section and fell in love with all these old books. I would love to have a collection of these on my shelf. The colors and typefaces are just so lovely! I checked out Forgotton Folk-Tales of the English Countries and A Dictionary of Fabulous Beasts.

Here is a real WIN WIN situation! Booooooom is having an art fundraiser! All of the artwork displayed there is listed with the agreement that the artists will donate all of the proceeds from each sale to Haiti. Get super cool art + help Haiti = (: I posted these particular pieces because I thought they would both make great Valentines Day gifties. Triple WIN.
