Faux Taxidermy










Animal friendly animal heads! Parfait! This style has been all over the place recently (especially now that Anthropologie has gotten in on the action), and I'm loving it. Of course it's cool to see a huge moose head above the fireplace of a grand ski lodge, or a bear rug in an old study... but the Bambie-loving-little-kid in me does always feel the pangs of sadness wondering how they got there. I'm adoring the work done by Frederique Morrel. There's an entire collection of embroidered taxidermy on his site that's just spectacular. But Rachel Denny's "Domestic Trophies" are my absolute favorite. Definitely buying one for myself. Love these.

Back in NYC...

Over two weeks away from her this time. Got home late last night to this poking through out my window. I missed this.

Book Covers








Pretty Little Book Covers... my new tumblr obsession. Genius idea. Browse more of the cover art here. Insert witty pun about "judging a book by it's cover" HERE. Happy Friday kids.

Organization Porn









Ohhhh... yeaaaaahhh...

The Merriweather Council







These embroidered gems remind me of my mom. She's big into needlepoint and I feel like she'd adore these. So petite and sweet. Love them. There's a whole Etsy shop devoted to them here. Enjoy.
