INTO THE WOODS: Winter Ice-Skating Party
I love these gorgeous photos of this incredibly creative ice-skating party! It really inspires me to think of fun ways to spend time with friends + family during the chilly winter months!
FOODIE: Artistic Cookies
I am loving these fun artistic cookies! I've been thinking about throwing an art party where a bunch of artsy girlfriends come over and we break out some canvas or water color paper and create masterpieces (or new art for the frig) and these cookies would be so much fun as the dessert!
DESIGN: Silly Buddy Handmade Collars
Eames + Orla definitely have Silly Buddy collars on their puppy-wish-list! So many beautiful designs to pick from - how can you not love a little hipster pup!?
Bark Dog Collar; $27
Mustache Dog Collar; $30
FOODIE + DESIGN: Eating Local
I love living in the Seattle area - practically everyone makes a conscious effort to shop and eat locally. I am digging this gorgeous hand-drawn map by Drywell of Seattle neighborhoods that promotes eating local!
And speaking of local... if you live in Seattle, you have to check out Local 360. It is an amazing restaurant that focuses on procuring their food within a 360 mile radius of Seattle... so awesome AND delicious!!

DESIGN: Yulia Brodskaya
One of my favorite paper illustrators is Yulia Brodskaya - they way she curls and bends paper is simply incredible! I love how she incorporates Typography into her work so it is not just about the image but it is about the wording as well. Beautiful!!
IN THE GARDEN: Mark My Words
Gorgeous art for the garden by Esther Coombs
Love these bamboo markers by Oryx and Crake Design
GORGEOUS markers from Modern Gardener
Beautiful hammered antique spoons by Hammermann
Simple & modern markers by Just Works
Chalkboard Markers by Bradens Grace Wall Art
DESIGN: Tea for Two
I absolutely love my new tea pot, creamer and sugar bowl set from West Elm! Such a great mix of texture!
IN MY KITCHEN: Butter
There is nothing more heavenly than homemade butter on toast! If you haven't made butter since your 4th grade science class, then I highly recommend that you check out Jam It, Pickle It, Cure It: And Other Cooking Projects by Karen Solomon - it is so tasty!
DESIGN: Paper Hammer
I love walking downtown Seattle and finding a new shop that is full of amazing design / crafts / art / books... and Paper Hammer is no disappointment!

DESIGN: Water Paper Paint
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE art books and my favorite new book is all about watercolors! I have dabbled a bit in watercolors in the past as my mom is an amazing watercolor artist but I have to admit that I haven't experienced with it the way Heather Smith Jones has! She is the author of "Water Paper Paint: Exploring Creativity with Watercolor and Mixed Media." I recommend that you pick up your own copy here!
