Just Because #5

Just because...

when I look at Spanish photographer Pelayo Lacazette's beautiful portfolio I feel like I'm five years old again. Take your time and be inspired!

For the Love of Kay

As much as I love this rare 1957 Kay Bojesen Rabbit that I found at The Sunday Times Market, I very much doubt that I'll ever be able to afford it. I suppose I shall just have to take solace in this amazing collection of Kay candy.

Trampoline

This beautiful photograph of a vintage baby's dress came my way this morning. Isn't it lovely? It reminded me of la princesse au petit pois' boxed dress display that I saw in Montpellier last week.

I love every single photograph and product in Kim Ludy's etsy shop

Cute, colourful and fun!
UK artist Peter Slight's paper-cut shadowbox pictures make me smile.

Hiyoko Imai

I have just fallen in love with Hiyoko Imai's Petit Renard and Petit Eléphant, designed for Poolga.
Go explore this Tokyo-born illustrator/designer's beautiful, minimalist portfolio, I'm sure you'll like it too. Hiyoko lives in Amsterdam and finds her inspiration in cooking, balcony-gardening, walking and dreaming.
A hidden gem!

Sol Linero's Animations

Some of you may remember Sol Linero's gorgeous Alphabet print I posted a few weeks ago.
I came across two of her animations the other day and thought I'd share them with you on Kickcan & Conkers. I know that people rarely watch videos on blogs, but if you ever get chance, sit down and show them to your children. Beautifully illustrated, Save My Oceans and The Each Campaign are both worth five minutes of your time.

Enjoy!

Colour My Wednesday

Pair of Vintage Sock Monkeys

Bonjour!

We've just come back from the beach and I'm feeling on top of the world.
I thought we'd start the day with a splash of colour.
So voilà!
