more tape

Oh darn.  More pretty tape I don't need but want ...

So many cute ways to use.  I think I'll need to get some of the grid-patterned tape.

All images + tape from nothingelegant.

maria la rosa

Lots + lots of pretty things by Maria La Rosa ...

The concept behind her work is inspiring ... everything is made by hand, in Italy + with natural fibers.  And all the textiles on antique looms. 

a really pretty party

Check out this little girl's amazing party ...

Seriously, how fun is that?  Love the big flowers.  I have kid parties on the brain lately [we've got a birthday coming up in a couple of months], so I'm especially loving these photos.  Photography by Jose Villa [and I just saw his kid's site for the first time ... amazing!]

Love these cards from The Curiosity Shoppe ...

bisgaard boots

Cute boots I want for our little one ...

Found at the lovely Line + Liv shop.  Also check out the Line + Liv blog [and her super cute cupcake stand]... everything is just my style ... simple + a little bit modern.  I'm doing some design/letterpress work for Wiebke of Line + Liv and look forward to sharing with you.

Hope you had a good holiday!

Hope you have a great holiday weekend!

Image from Sprinkles Cupcakes + have you heard?  There's a sprinklesmobile you can rent for parties.  So fun.
