Beautiful Mid Century Modern Art Made Out of Choke Cherry Twigs

Untitled by CDeK on Etsy.

Love!  I love wood.  It has such an artistic quality all on its own and then someone comes along and makes something magical with it.

Music to Recline By… | Flickr – Photo Sharing!.

Yes, what I really need is music to sit on my butt and stare at the ceiling with.  And please, if I’m going to recline in a chair, I would wear my blue knit dress, pearls, and some black pumps.  But I think what is really helping is “mother’s little helper”.

Ah, remember the days when I used to start something and then finish it? Me neither. This was painted during my Frida fascination period. I am totally in awe with her art and her personality and her looks. If I could grow a unibrow in homage to her, I would. And fangs. I would grow fangs.

Drenge Maniquen.

This site has the very coolest things.  Which I would love to have in my house.  If you could afford them.  And if my kids wouldn’t think I am any weirder than I am.

Have You Seen This Flier

I love things people do for their own fun.

Kate MacDowell – “venus”.

If you haven’t seen this artists work, you are in for a real treat.  Her porcelain sculptures are fun, beautiful, grotesque, and little bit scary.

Montana Sky | Flickr : partage de photos !.

I love Montana.  I don’t think I say that enough.  All I have to do is look at this picture and I remember why.  Beautiful blue skies and not a person around for miles.  You can see the horizon line and watch the weather come in.  I miss being able to say “looks like we got 15 minutes before the storm hits us” without looking online or at my blackberry or on the tv to find out.  I feel so out of sync with nature.

The elephant Salomon and the albino mouse Jose by SandraArteagA.

Some people, take craft and make it into an art.  I just can’t believe the amount of skill that went into this elephant and the mouse. I could never in a million years take some sculpey and some fabric and mohair and make this.  And then, set it out into the world for someone else to love.  Check out her other work.

Aliment Pillow.
My favorite!  Anything with beautiful vintage font.  I love having things in my home that have that old and vintage look, but are soft and comfortable and you aren’t afraid to use them, the way I like them.  Something about vintage French advertising really appeals to me.  I am an old soul and that old soul needs to be surrounded by inspiration. French Larkspur is a beautiful store.
