Holiday Lights

Holiday Lights
I wouldn’t mind having some of these porcelain tea light holders around my home for the holiday season.

Simple Swiss

Swiss Bags
Wool Pillows
Etsy seller BrinandNohl caught my eye. Lovely burlap and wool bags and pillows for the home with a Swiss accent.

Books for Lane

Library Necklace
I mainly post this for LaneEllen and Jizosama, who are working on a beautiful old books and library themed project that shall remain nameless at the moment. This wearable minature library is made from antique and scrap leather, paper and chain.

Not quite my personal style, as I lean toward the more simple, but it’s still beautiful! Via Design Milk.
