As a life-long Beastie Boys fan I was (and still am) devastated by Adam Yauch’s death, like I know so many music lovers are. I guess I feel lucky knowing that his music, and Beastie fan art, lives on.

Rest peacefully MCA.

Rustic vintage postcard invitation

Rustic vintage postcard invitation suite

I don’t usually post about invitations, wedding or otherwise, on this blog. It’s not that I don’t want to but there are so many other blogs out there that do. But I couldn’t help myself when I spied this gorgeous rustic invitation suite on Pinterest (thanks Kat). I had to share.

If there is a wedding in my future I want these invitations from Tupy Boutique. Simple yet unique. I love them.

A few months ago the talented Serena Olivieri sent me an email with a link to her blog and I was blown away. Her notebooks are stunning and they’re even more impressive when you realise that she makes everything from the binding to the illustrations. Amazing stuff.

I’m just sorry I didn’t post about Serena sooner! She’s opened an Etsy store so have a look through – I have my eye on this piece of loveliness!

Music To My Heart by Iloveyoulikeyou


I love seeing paper incorporated into jewellery. This sweet little piece is from a new Etsy shop on the block called Iloveyoulikeyou by Natalie Diaz and I’m pretty much in lovelike with it :D

“Each heart was “Hand Selected” for this Vintage Inspired necklace. It is a One-Of-A-Kind in its own right for I spent lots of time choosing each picture and word phrases from various books such as World History, Othello, and even the Dictionary.” – Natalie Diaz.

Cardboard chandelier anyone?


Don’t you just love chandeliers? If I could, I’d have one in every room of the house (including the loo!). If you can’t quite spring for the sparkly crystal variety perhaps a cardboard chandelier will do. Find out how to make your very own cardboard chandelier over at Etsy.
