pussy willow pillow
I’m starting to think about holiday shopping, and that usually means starting with what I’d like. (Sad but true.) And that list includes pretty much anything that the Beekman Boys are selling.The pussy willow hand-felted pillow, pictured above, is simply gorgeous, and perfect to bring a bit of spring to the house come late winter. Cooking me wouldn’t mind a Beekman 1802 apron, as it’s practical (adjustable strap!) and pretty. And their new milk shake bath soak, goat milk fragranced with essential oil blends, would be perfect for relaxing at the end of a long shopping day, virtual or otherwise. See more gifting options at the Beekman 1802 site, and mark your calendars for December 8: the Beekman Holiday Special airs that night on Planet Green. (Cannot wait for the dvd of their fantastic tv show to be released!)

I have no idea where I would hang this in my house, but I do know that I want it. Badly. Perhaps I could subliminally relearn my irregular verb conjugations? Designed by Ich & Kar for Domestic, spotted at Smallable.

Sesame Letterpress has added some new styles to its personal stationery line. I’m especially fond of the bubblegum bubble set. Great colors, and perfect for a teenage girl. (I’d be motivated to write thank you’s on such a pretty card.)

So eager to see this book. (pdf preview at drawnandquarterly.blogspot.com) Completely adore Leanne Shapton‘s illustrations of anything, and love when I stumble upon her latest and greatest in the NYTimes (point of discovery) and W magazine.
