i love the idea of a handmade holiday. last year we gave out lots of personalized letterpress stationery and gift tags. this year, i’ve been on the lookout for new ideas and came across these recipes from real simple. wouldn’t these be lovely to receive?

here’s another pretty i found while browsing etsy. a silver monogram necklace that’s made from a wax seal stamp. perfect for a stationery + wax seal lover like me!

i’m really, really liking the jewelry [and prices!] at shoogi spark. these pieces have stocking stuffer written all over them!

there’s always something in pottery barn that strikes my fancy. browsing the latest catalog, this chandelier caught my eye. wouldn’t it be the perfect place to gather + display festive holiday cards?

my anthropologie catalog arrived last week and i went gaga over these porcelain knitted ski cap candles. even the scents sound divine! i’m hoping to pass by the store sometime soon to see + smell them in person.


i was browsing etsy for baby mobiles and stumbled upon these cloud + rain mobiles from the butter flying. so sweet + puffy and i love the soft muted colors.

i’m really liking these ruffled pieces from j.crew and wishing they came in maternity sizes.


more packaging via the die line that i’m fond of. so clever + clean.
