I long for my apartment so much – and the wait is made unbearable by a tenant who won’t move. While waiting, I plan and re-plan. What to do? In what order? Painting walls and floors, ripping off the horrid 80s wallpaper in the hallway, possibly getting a new wardrobe. Where to put the furniture. Staining the wooden bench top a darker colour. Painting the kitchen cabinets – but what colour? How to separate the bed from the living room. The list is endless.
I entertain myself searching for posters on etsy – and there are really some great ones! Here are a couple of my favourite poster shops:
Dkngstudios ^ is a small design studio located in Santa Monica.
Claudia Varioso ^ makes posters based on movies – I love the consistent style.
Farouche ^ makes vintage-style, bright and lovely posters – I just imagine waking up to this every day.
I love love bomobob‘s ^ carnival series. Makes me feel like a child again. In a good way.
You need to see this sweet and cool blog: They Draw and Cook
They get recipes from all over the world and convert them to drawings! Like this:
Or perhaps you like this one better? I know I can’t decide:
It would be a great idea for my own favourite recipes as well – perhaps I will send one in?

Gotta love moop!
Their bags are excellent quality and lovely. I already have the market bag in brown:
This one is obviously blue, but just as pretty.
I plan on getting a smaller bag as well, perhaps in red:
Something less practical, but still on my wish list:
Guitar string earrings! Isn’t that brilliant? From cheapdatejewelry
Today, one of my favourite shops: AnnBernadette
She makes rings and things from copper wire in different colours. I first bought this one:
And then I bought this one as well:
They are super comfortable, and both became instant favourites. Highly recommended!
Take a look at this adorable bracelet:

I’ll add another one of my favourites:
A stuffed stag’s head! I love it. A few years ago, I had an idea of making a pink felted moose head. Perhaps it’s time to pick up that idea again.

Eva has made a gorgeous crochet blanket:
And of course, she made me want one too.
I’ve been at flickr gathering inspiration:
Love the patterns!
Found this sweet pillow some months ago in a store – I only saved the picture, as I thought I’d make something similar, so if anyone recognize it, please let me know so I can link to the store:

The wonderful blog by illustrator Alex Noriega, Stuff No One Told Me (but I learned anyway) is witty, charming and touching, often in the same illustration.
Oh, and make sure you click on “poster” under the merchandise poll in the right column – I really want to buy one.
Gotta love it:
This and lots more at Keep Calm Gallery
…almost forgot there was a blog. But now…
I have been to Stavanger, visiting Tou Stage, and seen some lovely streetart:
Hello up there!
Amazing giant keyhole
I have been to the local fleamarket and bought a lovely cigarette box and an amazing book cover:
Isn't it beautiful?
One look at her, and Danny Boyd knew that a blonde with legs like that... must mean murder
