Happy Weekend.
It felt great to get back to regular blogging this week after almost a month of haphazard posts. Thanks for waiting out the flu and two Christmases with me!
You may have noticed one sizable change here over the past week: The Daily Eat is no longer with us. After a year and half I’ve decided it was time to take things in a fresher direction. One that is decidedly more true to Design Crush. So stay tuned to see where it goes, I promise to try not to disappoint!
My favorites from the past week (and maybe a few from the week before that, too!)…
S’mores + waffles = S’moreffles. Also know as, holy crap that’s genius!
Take advantage of the winter weather and make maple syrup taffy in the snow
So excited to see Sophie Blackall’s Missed Connections illustrations now available as prints
And Jessica Hische just took the print plunge with her Daily Drop Cap series
Loving Joy’s latest feature on happy lady eats, Lunch Lady, showing off what people eat for their mid-day meal
I’m quite sure you’ve seen Lisa Congdon’s A Collection a day, 2010 blog by now. But if you haven’t…
Quite possibly my favorite wedding to date
Let’s spraypaint on snow – why not?
The chic-est party cake ever
I heart quick bread. Here are ten amazing recipes.
Pretty DIY winter ice lanterns
This DIY grocery planner is destined for my fridge
Download this awesome seasonal calendar and be reminded of what fruits + veggies are in season, too!
Or download this one and have the entire year on one pretty piece of paper
There are tons of January desktop wallpapers running around – here are my favorites 1 + 2
Fun printable goal list to help you through the day
Happy Weekend!

Amanda Wachob Tattoo.
I have five tattoos of my own and have always been a fan of the all black look. But these? The work of tattoo artist Amanda Wachon is flat out art. Brilliant art that makes me want to embrace the colored side. I’ve never wanted to live in NYC more than this very moment, she’s there inking away at Dare Devil Tattoo. Like, whoa, total girl crush. {via frolic!}

Buttons Print.
Eva Juliet never fails to impress and this Buttons print is no exception. I love those candy-colored hues! This piece would be perfectly at home in my little studio, reminding me that I’d really love to learn to sew more than fallen off buttons.

Heart Macaroons.
These heart macaroons made by Two Hearts Bakery for Williams-Sonoma look absolutely mouthwatering. And with Valentine’s Day being only a month from yesterday, they might just be the perfect sweet treat to send off to that someone special. Or that friend who rocks. Or (ahem) yourself.

Schweppes Limited Edition Beverages.
Have you seen these deliciously vintage themed bottles for Schweppes? You can only get a hold of them in select bars, cafes and restaurants. The series includes Ginger Ale, Lemonade, Soda Water and Indian Tonic Water. Stunning work by Australia’s DeDonato. {via The Dieline}
