You’re Flagged!

This weekend was amazing! Time was well spent with friends, family, and most importantly with my husband and son. While most of you were eating barbecue, downing lots of drinks (alcoholic or not) just to stay cool in the high-90 degree temps, I was thinking of these amazing flags on a time to get. I’ve lived in this home for three years and realized, I have NO flag to hang outside. So I was thinking of making my very own, and I wondered how people (especially dedicated patriots) would feel if I used a slightly different star pattern. They are so pretty! Would you find it offensive or confusing?! 0

Pony Rider

I love all the simple products by Pony Rider. In the description of the company and products they use great line “using the ‘good’ linen for the everyday.” LOVE it! Via 0

Aubin and Wills

I have no clue who is behind the design and branding for Aubin and Wills but I love the mostly typographic look for their branding efforts and homewares! If anyone knows the agency/studio responsible for their treatments, or if it’s an in-house effort – please let me know! Via 0

Bird Brain

I’ve had birdhouses on the brain, and this one is just too amazing not to own. Don’t you think?! But I don’t want to put them outside I just want to hang them on my office walls, is that weird?! Via 1

Nautical Decor

So Many Dynamos Hand Screened Show Poster by The Bungaloo $20 I have a real affinity for the nautical, and have been thinking of what to do with a (very) blank wall in my home office. I’m thinking of covering it in nautical paper goods and vintage nautical items. Sounds like a good idea. Here’s a few things I found that I think would look great, if you have any additions to make please let me know about them in the comments! Multiple prints by Gennine on Etsy $20–$25 “Anchor” print from Tugboat Printshop $35 Vintage Brass Propeller Paperweight and Brass Whale Paperweight from OctaviaBrown on Etsy $16 The US Navy – A History from…

The Hansen Family

The lord is my shepherd, I SHALL want!!!! I want (really want) a full collection of furniture from The Hansen Family. And not only do they have amazing furniture, they have a stylish blog (or boardbook) too. The Hansen Family was created by Gesa Hansen who grew up in a Scandinavian family of carpenters, designers, and architects. Thanks to their influense she combined them all into creating beautifully handcrafted furniture. 0

Chelsea Papers

I like these sweet floral Chelsea Wallpaper designs available through Farrow & Ball. I wish I could get over the feeling of wallpaper as a sin. 0

Card Catalogs

I love, LOVE card catalogs (as you may know). Something about all those little drawers tempting me to open each and every one of them … even though I know they all contain just cards. But what if they could contain more then that? Well, a kind fellow contacted me because he has quite a few of these lovelies in his possession from the Yale Art and Architecture Library and they are for sale! Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll pass the information on to you. They all cost over $1000 (most are under $1500), and the second from the bottom is $775. I hope they go to good homes! 0

The Cocktail Gallery

After New Year’s you may not want to hear about any sort of cocktails or alcoholic drinks, but how much fun are The Cocktail Gallery posters? 0

Industrial Is In

I don’t know about you but I’ve noticed the integration of industrial-style items into home decor. Is it just me? I’ve picked some industrial-type things for my new home office and that’s particularly true when it comes to office supplies. Something about mechanical/industrial items makes me feel more at home. I bought three metal automatic stamps, a stamp carousel (for just $2.50!) and a crazy-weird stapler (for just 25 cents !) that has gold wire staples. My mom gave me some old sewing drawers that I’ve made into catch-all on my desk and when creating my home office had a problem septic pipe in the middle of the floor. So instead of covering it up…
