Ok, I'm not exactly Pottery Barn's #1 Fan...but check out this great image from the latest catalogue filled with great items {most of which seem to be props and not actually sold at Pottery Barn...but I do love their vintage carousels}

Lovely Design
Lovely Design was featured on Apartment Therapy today for her innovative use of recycled packaging...I am completely in love with her Found Paper Address File. Unfortunately it is sold out. {I can't afford it anyway.} Maybe a DIY project...hmm

Black & White Mugs
Lauren and I discovered these Bodum Paula Espresso Cups & Saucers in Macy's in Los Angeles. They are adorable...great graphic punches...
Crate and Barrel's Linea, Quill, Droplet, & Point are also great {and inexpensive} mugs with fantastic graphics. {I like droplet the best.}
Snippet & Ink Boards
Kathryn from Snippet & Ink sent a link yesterday to the first image, saying she thought I might like it {I have no idea why}... She creates beautiful wedding inspiration boards...while I don't plan on planning a wedding too soon {although it would like a lot like the first image if i did}, these could totally be translated into inspiration for a party, everyday fashion, and home decor...I love it!

UNIFORM Studio
I came across Uniform Studio while reading Shim and Sons post about her new Volumetric Scarf...I was quite intrigued...
Uniform Studio {located in Minneapolis} creates simple and modern clothing and accessories for adults and children employing the design principles of form, structure, and texture. The focus is on the seams, construction and molding of the fabric, rather than embellishments. Check out the results...the website, etsy store {it's empty right now}, and the blog for awesome production and inspiration pics...
