Such charming hooks for a kid’s room (or a grown-up’s!) from Our Children’s Gorilla shop.

Yay! More styles on the Kooples site.  I really love this line.

I scored this book the other day at one of my favourite thrift stores.  Some times I don’t have patience for thrift store book sections because there is generally no organization and it can be quite overwhelming!  I was glad I did last week because I found an old Jacques Cousteau book on Squid and Octopus; a first edition Shel Silverstein book; a great old Life book called The World We Live In; and this book on geology that I’m picturing below.  Score!  I especially love the endpapers in this geology book.  Gorgeous.

My friend Zach’s work is always lovely.  Just stopped by his site to look for new works, and found this, which I love.

I received an email last week from Leigh at Elroy with photos of their eco-friendly line.  The full collection is constructed from only sustainable and socially responsible fabrics such as organic cotton, handwoven bamboo, hemp and tencel.

So this past weekend we went to the Salton Sea with some friends to go camping, and we paid a visit to Salvation Mountain, which is just past Niland in Slab City.  Here are a few photos of this incredibly dedicated ongoing art piece by Leonard Knight (age 77).  Regardless of your religious persuasion, this is a lovely and committed piece of folk art.  We were able to meet Leonard and hear him a song that he wrote a long time ago called “Flower-tree and You”.   Seth made a recording which you should give a listen to.  If you ever are feeling like a road trip to the California desert, you should definitely make a stop by Salvation Mountain and explore.

I love the jewelry from Dehoff’s most recent collection… and the fun, photographic florals.

So, do you think it trumps this one in the cuteness department?
