Growing up in Pennsylvania, I developed an affection for the Amish and their simple ways of life. Oh, and their cookies. But if I’d known they were producing scooters and zipping around town on them there would have been a whole ‘nother level of admiration!
Being under the Color Wheel Umbrella would make you instantly more photogenic. Just one more reason you’d love it (as if you needed another). {via bltd}
I love that this well-designed wall barbeque takes advantage of untapped space. Perfect for small spaces and extremely secure, this one even folds up when not in use.
I’m enthralled with the idea of layered foods on the go, like this BBQ in a Jar. You can also do layered salads and desserts among other things. Perfect for picnicking!
For the Birds might at first glance appear to be a kicky installation, but nope, they’re actual bird houses. A collaborative effort from San Francisco artists Luke Bartels and Jeff Canham combining craftsmanship and humor, this seedy pun intended village is comprised of eleven bird businesses such as The Condor Club Peep Show, Night Owls Bar and Pigeon Hole Motel. A little posh for the aviation nation in my neighborhood, but so clever. {via Kitsune Noir}
This week has been a bit topsy-turvy (a new theme in my life lately), so I’m thrilled that the weekend is here! It’s going to be filled with the Festival of the Arts, playoff game four of the Thunder v Lakers (4th row!) and dress shopping for a family wedding next month. Happy Weekend!
One of my domestic dreams is to have the be all, end all of backyards. Different nooks and crannies to sit in and wile away the hours, lots of greenery hanging here and there and a gorgeous stone fireplace. And now when I think about it all I see is the furniture from Gardenhouse. PS: I’ve had that yellow loveseat bookmarked for ages with no idea of its origin. Fate!
