The snake rattles,
the lion yawns
and man makes a book.
A wild book
for civilized people.
A sophisticated book
for wild people.
A beautiful book
with wild animals
for civilized people.
A book with beautiful animals
for wild people.
Wild Animals is a beautiful self-published book by Rop van Mierlo resembling some of the best Rorschach tests you’ve ever laid eyes upon.

I’m not a lover of maple syrup on my pancakes, so I like alternative recipes that either don’t require any or use a different variation of topping.

Each block of color in these military ribbon inspired necklaces by Michelle Hartney represents a different characteristic or trait. Each one comes with a printed legend that lays out what each color stands for.

Hammocks & High Tea’s spring collection is beyond stunning, but what I’m loving most are Karen’s Dopp kits. The patterns range from subtle and clean to bold and ballsy, all hitting me square in the design gut.
