Velorbis Classic Bicycles.

In my opinion there are just some things, albeit few, that cannot be improved upon. One is a good, classic bicycle design. After missing out on the limited edition run of Liberty of London for Target bikes sigh I’ve got my eye on these beauties from Velorbis. I wonder if I can talk them into providing this wardrobe along with the bike if I make a purchase? It never hurts to ask… {via Shiny Squirrel}

Picnic Set.

After tons of rain yesterday including a flooded front yard today is gorgeous! I woke up at 6:30 to find the sun already peeking over the horizon, blue skies and birds chirping. Spring is literally sitting on the doorstep waiting to be invited in.

I’ve never been a big picnic person, but I’m hoping to change that once things dry up. In no small part thanks to this picnic set by Carina Ahlburg that I just can’t get enough of.

Happy Weekend.

{Unknown}

Have you been having an amazing first week of fall? I have. Here in Oklahoma we’re experiencing a lot of below average temperatures and I’m soaking up every moment! Not only did I break out the Halloween decorations (fine, that was last week), but some long sleeves, too. Have a fantastic weekend and enjoy this week’s Mad Props!

Sunny Arm Chair.

Warm sun on my face, cold beer in my hand, adorable cafe chairs in my back yard. Could it be true? Yes, if you add a few Sunny Arm Chairs that are a kicked-up version of the sidewalk classic the world over. I’ll take four in yellow. Thank you.
