Happy Camper

If I ever have the good fortune of having my very own moutain cabin, I will most certainly decorate in a vintage fashion. I am absolutely obsessed with retro camping style. Here's a very good Etsy article on how to recreate your own woodsy home, no matter where you live.

Enchanting

This enchanting bedroom, posted on The Cherry Blossom Girl, is every little girl's dream come true. (Via Creature Comforts ).


I just can't get this to-die-for photo from Ouma Clothing on Etsy out of my head.

Illustrations

What a wonderful blog by Maira Kalman, who's also given a totally inspirational speech about the creative process at TED.

Thanks to Hidden Los Angeles, another wonderful blog of sorts, I discovered it this morning. Love, love, love it.

Garden Party

Isn't this the most inviting looking garden party? I love the bright colors and the refreshing jug of lemonade. You can practically taste it. (Via Etsy ) The article shows you how to make your own version of this outdoor soiree.

Bonus link: a night time garden party.

Another outdoor activity I wouldn't mind taking part of is the San Diego Zoo's Roar n' Snore. Get out there before summer's over!

Howdy, Partner!

I really like the casual feel of these wedding invitations from the Yellow Owl Workshop. They look like a mash-up between a gig poster and a rodeo flyer.

Sweet Stuff

This sorbet, first posted at The Small Object blog, looks delicious.

On the Mend

Lately it seems there's a renewed interest in all things Blitz. Perhaps it has to do with our own economic difficulties, because they've recently reissued this 1940's British book on how to make do during tough times. Find it here .

And I may be late to the party, but my friend Christa introduced this artist and video to me at a bonfire party (turned youtube party) last night.
