fabric everywhere.

i am quite a fan of allicoate. her fabric-wrapped pendants, keys, forks...are fabulous, her illustrations are whimsy eye candy and lord knows, i love embroidered word.
i fully plan on buying one of her soft drop pendants...and if for nothing else, just so i can get her sweet new fabric-inspired stickers. !

too cheesy to call this a poster post..?

i am obsessed (yes, another obsession) with posters and papers and fabrics - anything i can frame and hang or lay or lean somewhere. my home is starting to get a little overflowed (is that a word?) with pictures and frames and round cardboard tubes filled with things yet to be framed.

knowing this is the first step.
...but i still have yet to conquer my obsession.

i want these:

almost too much.

so.
alicia bock is a fabulously fabulous photographer (not to mention a fabulous blogger).
i dont even know where to start...i am obsessed with her views of paris and they make me want to return and go to each place she photographed. i love her flora [period] and i adore a gal who adores polaroids. !
...and her textures are amazing!

i dont know which one (or five) to buy first. !!!

oh, happy day.

do you know how excited i am? so!

problem one ~ i have been planning to make a hanging lamp for about 2 months now. my only dilema: which of my two ideas to choose from.

problem two ~ i have loads of sweaters that are too small to wear (or too worn out) but too cute to get rid of...and i dont want to do the tired ol' idea of turning them into pillows. ok - its not such a tired idea, and actually, i might, in fact, make a few pillows...but still, it didnt satisfy me.

problem solver ~ my new country living magazine came in today with a gem of an idea! a sweater-covered lamp shade. ! and quite a few other insanely fantastic ideas.
