I’ve tried to resist the majesty of this Big Orange Scissors silk screened print by Alanna Cavanaugh for the past twenty-nine days. And I’m happy to report that I’m failing miserably.
For today this photo series by Kim Holtermand shall be my happy place. Who would have guessed islands of rock could look so serene and dream-like.

Hey, wait! Don’t forget, you have until Monday at 9am CST to tell me about the room in your home that needs a little TLC not the band for a chance to win a Design in a Bag!
It’s referred to as a cake stand, but I’m thinking this is more of a tiered server or fruit stand. In my world that means it’s really for collecting my rings and baubles upon my dresser. Don’t you love how it stacks together and still manages to look good? Me, too.
Fragile banks are all the rage, I love the delicacy of Leon Ransmeier and Andrew Hughs’ handblown glass Bubble Bank. Of course you’d have to break it to release the change, which is something I could never bring myself to do. I have two small glass banks from when I was a kid that are as full as can be and remain unbroken to this day. {via core77}
These modern metal bird feeders by Joe Papendick are inspired by the shape of old wooden birdhouses, but will last ages longer. I need to get one so Roxy and Peanut the have something to chatter at through the patio doors!
Paper, wire, baker’s twine, beads. That’s it. That’s all that haru uses to create these one-0f-a-kind paper mobiles made out of connected medallions. I have the perfect spot in my kitchen all picked out. {via Creature Comforts}

The cone is usually my favorite part of the ice cream experience (with all that melty sweet ice cream inside – yum), but for these porcelain Sugar Cones by Virginia Sin I think I’ll make an exception.
It’s a silent goal of mine to own a small bronze sculpture in my lifetime. Lucky for me there’s Anne Ricketts. All of her pieces are miniature or small in size and designed to make quality craftsmanship affordable. (I’m leaning towards the heart.) {via Cool Hunting}
