Pheasant

Start your week off with a visit to Pheasant, a mail order company providing a hand-picked, tiny selection of home accessories, all handmade and crafted in Yorkshire. Wondering how they find these lovely goodies? The owners of Pheasant say, "We love to go up to Yorkshire, travelling around and discovering new craftspeople tucked away in The Dales or further afield. Sourcing has to be our favourite bit, especially when it means a sneaky half pint of Theakstons with a pub lunch and an ice-cream at Brymor in the process." Wow...two words...dream job!

Pheasant's unique items and beautiful photography are great starting points for achieving a cozy home feel. Here's to a warm and tea-filled week ahead...

dottie angel

You can't help but swoon over the photographs, beautiful home and store of Tif Fussell or more famously known as dottie angel. One peek into her life and you will feel like you've stepped into a wonderful dream filled with hand-embroidered doilies, vintage notions and thrifted furniture. I can't say enough about her inspiring imagery and products...you must see for yourself!

Autumn Sunshine

I immediately smiled when I saw the wonderful Flickr photostream of Xanthe Berkeley. The long hours filled with rain, cold and busy work turned into a sigh of joy. For a sweet moment the dreary day turned away and I escaped into the warmth of the autumn sunshine. Go on...escape away.

Century Finds

Check out the cute animal finds over at Century Finds, an online shop featuring a mix of high quality, handcrafted items including vintage and other found treasures for the home. I'm especially drawn to the colorful and quirky tile designs by Xenia Taler. Oh and the miniature die-cast deer, which are perfect for this time of year.

Hedwige Jacobs

Originally from the Netherlands, Hedwige Jacobs draws inspiration from the box-like houses and landscape of her current residence in Houston. Her drawings also address themes like overcrowding and human interaction. From these themes intricate narratives are created, which evoke intriguing questions about the idea of home.

I also love the use of woven interlaces to create connectivity and a literal thread of life. Believe me...my textile loving heart is beating fast! Simple, yet truly inspiring work - check out more here.

Woolly Pockets

Just because winter is arriving doesn't mean you can't enjoy lush, green plants. Check out Woolly Pockets - flexible, breathable and modular gardening containers. Handmade in the USA from recycled plastic bottles, these soft-sided pockets can be used indoors and out. Plus, they look great on the wall, on their own and in groups. They also have built-in moisture barriers to help protect furniture and can be folded flat for easy moving and storage. So, no more plants peeing on the carpet or lugging around bulky pots! Can we say vertical garden in the kitchen?!

Noa Noa Miniature

Adorable kid clothing and photographs from the Noa Noa Miniature Christmas collection. To be a kid...doesn't it seem magical?
