i just received the new west elm catalog...and of course i am loving the new bird motiffs they have featured in it. this plate is lovely bird silhoutte on a perfect blue. a little simple goth with a colorful twist, i love it!

i just received the latest viva terra catalog this afternoon. i enjoy perusing through all their goods, with wonderful craftmenship, eco-friendly and fair trade items. this one especially stood out to me. i adore this embroidered yellow rabbit design against the white organic cotton handbag. it has nice big opening with an even wider bottom, great for toting around all your essentials, along with book, sketchbooks and other little things (like me!). what's even better, these bags provides a crucial source of income for the women who make them (see the link for more info). anyone want to gift me? (lol)!
