Favourite Finds

February 2, 2011

When Chase falls asleep at night, I cozy up in bed and first, read -currently it’s either a chapter from Wings of Mourning or a passage from Streams in the Desert or Through a Season of Grief- and then I grab Ted’s iPad and head to  to be inspired. I heard of pinterest from Rachel of Smile & Wave and even found my inspirational booklet on there, but then again, most anyone can “pin” anything, but it was a nice surprise to see it on there.

Most of these finds below I first found on Pinterest or Etsy but I linked most of them to their direct source.

I would love something like this little crafting nook. {}

Or this Kitchen cart transformed into a crafting cart. I LOVE this and friday I will be searching for one at thrift stores!! {Better Homes & Gardens} So practical and super smart! I have a crafting room, but usually end up pulling out a table into the living room because it’s better for me, esp since Chase isn’t napping twice a day anymore. This would make things so much easier!

Below is currently my favourite Etsy store for clothing. I could never afford her incredible stuff but I hope to someday know how to make things as beautiful as this!!

Amazing. Love this. Beautiful! {Little Houses Etsy shop}

I want to make these and wear them around the house. Added to my list of things to sew (or try to ;))! {I Think Sew}

Very cute. Chase would have a blast with this cute little handmade “bowling” set! {Mazska Etsy shop}

First, If you know me, you know I love the colour teal. I know turquoise is a little off from my love of teal, but it is pretty similar. This week via Pinterest I found House of Turquoise. Amazing and suuuper inspirational in home decor!

And remember my 25 by 25 List well, this is almost exactly the style crib I envisioned when I said I wanted to revamp a crib and paint it an awesome colour! Love!!

For creating. I really, really want these! You could use it for so many things! Some girls would buy shoes, I would buy this hahaha. {Cinderella Gift Shop on Etsy}

For home decor. I have a plan to do a small wall kind of similar to this. Love it! {The Purl Bee}

For the kiddo room. Vintage camera. Sad it sold. Hope to find one! {found on Etsy}

Pretty vintage pyrex. I hope to find some in this colour while thrifting! {Modern Findings}

I like everything about this, the owl, colours, the cuteness, etc! {Anthropologie }

This is just amazing! I would change the colour, but other than that, I love it!

    i showed ian the craft card after you showed me. on sunday he moved ours upstairs so i can tranform it! I am going to add a few things, put the door back on and then start organizing it! I’m excited :) I hope you find one! I know ours had wheels at some point but i can’t remember where they ended up. If we had a one story house it’d be perfect but for now i think it will be staying in my room so wheels aren’t necessary.

    i love a lot of those finds! i really like the one with the embroidery hoops and vintage fabric. i did something with vintage scarves in found thrifting once. thats a great idea to do again. i wonder how many ideas in our decorating we will end up both using! but i know they will be totally different because our colors are different and so our styles in some ways…but alike in others! i so wish we could go thrifting together!

    I LOVE the book tree. That is so amazing. I might have to find a way to incorporate something like that in our girls room someday. Thanks for the post. I don’t usually take time to look for things like this, but really enjoy seeing your finds. I can’t really create much right now, but there is something inspiring about all things beautiful.
