Glass bubble chandeliers are the light fixture of the moment, they’re everywhere. And they’re pricey. Unless you want to dedicate some time and about $70 to throw together your own. This tutorial from Small Notebook makes it seem totally doable, right now I’m picturing a half-size version for my tiny foyer. {via paper n stitch}

I love to be organized on paper, even though nine times out of ten it doesn’t translate over to my real life. (It’s the thought that counts, right??) This morning I received an awesome package from Knock Knock with their Around the House Tablet, Vs. Journal, and Life Log that made my day. I’ve long been a fan of their smart and witty organizational tools and can’t wait to put these new pieces to work for me.

I already know that one pEi pod would not be enough in our house, there would have to be three. Two cats and a dog would definitely not fit into one of these cave-like structures without a fight. My favorite part aside from the modern shape? The cushion options!
Posted In create, petsWatercolor has always been an extremely fascinating medium to me, most likely because it’s one I’ve failed to master even after repeated attempts. The combination of extreme control mixed with wreckless abandon is incredibly beautiful, so I’ve been really happy to see it being used more often in recent months. It’s also inspired me to pick up my paints and give it one more shot…

I never did the Girl Scout thing, but I remember how satisfying it felt to get a sticker on my homework or a gold star on my chore chart for a job well done. There’s something to be said about positive reinforcement, and I doubt it’s only me thinking adulthood really isn’t all that easy. Check out these merit badges from Disorderly Goods, twelve embroidered badges for things like “using your powers for good, not evil” and “giving a shit”. Super smart.

Loving the distinct shapes of these food covers from switch design. It would be amazing to see more involved shapes like chicken, an egg, etc. {via Sally J Shim}

I’m crazy about these silk scarves from Liberty of London, they remind me of looking through a kaleidoscope. {via Greedy Girl}
Posted In accessories, wear itSound is an art, so I think it naturally matters what we’re listening to it through. You can pick up a portable stereo on the cheap, or you can invest in something a little more awesome that’s also going to be a great conversation piece. Something you’re likely to keep around for years and years to come that’s going to be a mainstay in your home. I live and breathe through my Bose SoundDock

You’d think they would have been able to come up with a better word than curd. And when it comes to fruit butters the name is just so misleading. I guess all you really need to know is that they’re super easy to make for the most part and incredibly delicious. (As always, click on the images to be taken to the original post and recipe.)
