Quickly, before it hits midnight!


"Gypsy Eyes" by Elif Sanem Karakoc.

floor sticker.



I am quite in love with this idea, so in love that I am dreaming of just throwing away our huge not-so-pretty floor rug and purchasing one of these right away. Beautiful floor stickers available at Rockett St. George (which would also make a lovely wall decal). (£62.50)

leigh beisch photography.



Some more mouth-watering food images, this time from San Francisco photographer Leigh Beisch. Leigh has photographed for a number of impressive clients, including Martha Stewart, Williams-Sonoma, Ghiradelli, and Chronicle Books. I really cannot ever get enough of talented food stylists and photographers.

lili piri.



I can't even tell you how much I love the illustration of Lily Piri, an Australia-based artist I just recently found through bored&beautiful. I fancy the muted colors and animal subjects. Just lovely.

flickr photo of the day : self.

Is it weird to put a photograph of myself as the flickr photo of the day? I just always adore my friend Alice's images and I love this one she snapped of me this morning after I baked some miniature strawberry bundt cakes.

smitten kitchen prints.



While blogging on Bread & Honey the other night, I suddenly noticed that one of my favorite food bloggers, Deb of Smitten Kitchen, sells prints of the gorgeous food photographs she posts on her website. I don't know how I had missed this previously, but I am quite excited to know that I can someday own her beautiful images (which would make a perfect addition to our kitchen walls). Check the shop out here.

the photography of angie cao.



On this hot evening, I am feeling quite inspired by the photography of Angie Cao. I love her use of lighting and colors, and how her images give off a feeling of comfort. They make me dream of being in a cool farmhouse with iced cold lemonade instead of up in this sweltering attic.
