Don't Stand On The Cracks in Paris

I love this idea. Juliana Santacruz Herrera decided to decorate the cracks in the pavements of the Paris streets with fabric.
When I was a child we used to walk for miles whilst avoiding the cracks in the pavements. Who would want to stand on these? Found at Freshhome

Stairway To The Stars

What a lovely journey to bed this would be. Found at Art Decoration

The Versatility of Eggs and Happy Easter

No one can deny that eggs are versatile and to prove it I have put together some of the things you can do with them

Pierre Marcolini has created a flat one that can be placed in this gorgeous


box with other Easter Treats

Bodie and Fou have eggs that are candles sitting in a nest of straw.

You can leave some memories of the chicken with them, they even look beautiful when broken.


Paris in an egg. Now that's my sort of egg.

Very useful for plant pots

Placed in sunlight with a simple shadow falling onto them.

Stencilled using a doilly.
Have I proved my point?

Playing With a Sleeping Babe

I just had to put these images on Designers Block. Found at Lifestyle etc. Mila's Daydreams is a collection of photographs taken by the baby's mother, Adele Enersen. I love the idea of being creative when a baby is sleeping. Preferable to housework any day.

Layered Skirts

Ulrike Ay - Still Got What It Takes

Ulrike Ay is a German textile artist. I have been a fan of her work for years now. I re-visited her website the other day and noted she hasn't lost that talent of hers.

Conran Paris

At the moment I am busy turning our rear garden into an outside room of sorts. It is a most satisfying project. It seems that the sky is the limit when it comes to containers. Take a look at what the stylists have done to the Conran Shop in Paris. Inspirational! Via Trend Pulse
