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.
I love this beautiful, romantic lingerie from naomilingerie. These sleep boxers look so sweet and comfy. She also makes adorable sleep masks!
Hello friends! I don’t do this often, but I figured I’d share a little about myself and some things I am very excited about, I just can’t contain myself. First off the above picture is just one I took of a Pyrex dish I own and love and have meaning to post for a while. Cute eh? I love the retro Americana imagery.
So anyway, today Brian and I got keys to the house we are going to be renting. This summer we will be slowly transferring from our apartment to a cute, older historic home close to Millikin with lots and lots of space and character. We can’t wait to get settled in and start decorating!
And finally, the thing I am most excited about, today Brian and I are doing a 16 hour road trip (round-trip) to Michigan to pick up a letterpress. I’ve heard people say that when the time is right a press will find you. Suddenly, out of nowhere we stumbled across our perfect match, sooner than we ever expected. We plan to transform the basement of our new house into a silk-screen/letterpress studio and will hopefully be starting a little business. I am so happy that summer has finally arrived and I will actually have a little time to devote to my personal handmade dreams.
And… last weekend I went back to my home home to see my family. Got this cute romper and my sister Grace and I had a fun little photo-shoot! Ahh summer….
Wow. These handmade romantic garments from Ouma clothing, plus some very gorgeous photography makes one delicious combination. Drool. All photography shown her is by the talented Galaxie Andrews.
I love the rough and rugged look of these aprons and bags made by Stanley & Sons. With all the printing I’ll be doing this summer I am in desperate need of a quality apron and I would love to have one made by these guys! The bags are awesome too and made out of lots of interesting recycled materials like old military dufflels.
Have you heard of the shoe company BC Footwear? They have the cutest shoes, and an amazing selection of fun sandals for summer. I did an interview for them and am featured on their site this month! Visit their website and click on heygirlhey to read my interview (:
Gorgeous hair pieces from ban.do. The styling of these photos is amazing. I want every. single. one. Oh! And for the whole month of May all floral pieces are 30% off. Sweet!
Handmade leather oxfords? Yes please! These shoes from golden ponies are too adorable. The gold ones are definitely on my wish list.
I meant to post about this forever ago but I totally forgot! Brian got me this bag for my birthday and it is amazing! Big but not too big, simple, neutral (goes with everything), lots of inside pockets, and it has an adjustable strap! These bags are so well made and they are really affordable. She has a wonderful selection, you really must check out this shop!
Super cool fringe necklaces from iheartnorwegianwood! I love how much these can dress up a simple tank.
I’m obsessed with all these leggings from MALU. Her designs ares so unique, every pair is cuter than the next. They look so fun and comfy to wear!
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.
Loving everything at Spool No. 72. The details are fantastic!
Mallory from Chud City makes super neat clothing and accessories! In her shop you’ll find lots of fun recycled materials and wonderful crochet creations. I especially love this obi belt (above) and this crafty chic crochet belt! Check out her shop!
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!
I’m loving Kathryn Blackmore’s fashion illustration and jewelry designs. Her portfolio is a real treat! I’m especially digging the jewelry piece shown on the blue dress. How cool.
