Weekend Edition

An assortment of colourful flowersSpring is here!!!! I’ve been waiting to say those three little words for what seems like EVER! And first day temperature didn’t disappoint either. As I walked outside at lunch time, I closed my eyes and turned my face to soak in the warm rays like a starved flower. Hope you’ve had a gorgeous day and now can sit back and enjoy these weekend links!

  • I came across the beautiful artwork of Jose Romussi through my web wanderings and completely fell in love with this series of art pieces that combine embroidery and photography. Absolutely stunning!
  • I’m not the only one revelling in the first signs of spring. Carin Olsson shares some dreamy glimpses of the season in Paris on her site.
  • Sometimes you come across the most amazing thing and you feel like sharing it with everybody because it is that insanely good! Well I’ve found the perfect savoury treat that’s become a weekend favourite at my house.

Weekend Edition

Tulips and daisies at a flower shop London, OntarioI feel some serious colour deprivation this time of year  and find myself sneaking into various flower shops around town. My budget has taken a bit of a hit since I tend to come away with at least one bouquet but this simple addition to my living space feels completely indulgent. I’ve discovered a few other things this week that have made me smile and of course I had to share them with you.

  • If you want gorgeous blossoms on your table but are a bit tight on budget, the lovely Aimee Twigger shares a great diy project for some crepe paper peonies.
  • The ultimate cool french girl Isabel Marant takes her 2015 Spring collection inspiration from America cowboys, Elvis Presley and Navajo tribe. Girls everywhere, me included, are sighing and waiting for the warmer weather with bated breath!
  • I found 33 of the yummiest cupcake recipes on the internet. They all look delicious and the hardest part is deciding which one to start with!

If you have some favourite links, I’d love to know what they are.

Eco Pets

Moss covered pet sculpturesI found this adorable pair perched outside a little flower shop on Toronto’s Yonge street. If you’re an animal lover short on space, time, or money, I think these “pets” would be a perfect addition to your home. Not sure about the allergies, but your neighbours will love you.
