paper love by monica marks.

this morning i came upon the beautiful paper creations by monica marks, a lovely shop on etsy. she designs things for people who love paper. i absolutely drool over her paper bowls. take a peek at her shop. i know you'll love it, too.

plumo.

a little mod. a little india.

love these darlin' mugs and bowls from west elm. so simple and the colors and prints are yummy sweet! indian design is currently pulling at my heartstrings and these little gems are a bit mod and a bit india wrapped in coffee and tea goodness.

beautiful days to all of you :)

on my bookshelf.

dresses and hats and gloves...oh my! a simply charming read. found here.

Books + Books = Love

there's something so wonderfully nostalgic about this room. i love how the books wrap around the space creating a literary cocoon. the art, bedding, furniture, and that fantastic wallpaper...transporting me to another time and place. so comforting.

beauty of time.

lovin' the simple beauty of this Roost brand wall clock. so country fabulous in my fave pale grey! this would make a wonderful DIY weekend project. :)

serenity...

center of all centers, core of cores,
almond, self-enclosed, growing sweet --
all the universe, to the farthest stars
and beyond them, is your flesh, your fruit ...
now you feel how nothing clings to you;
your vast shell reaches into endless space,
and there the rich thick nectars rise and flow.
illuminating your infinite peace,
a billion stars go spinning through the night,
glowing high above your head.
but in you is the presence that
will be, when all the stars are dead.
