My soon-to-be new doggie, Monster



...is anything but a monster...

I don't know why...


but I really love this giant reclaimed musician's platform (imported from India, bought at the Rose Bowl) I saw on craigslist.  UPDATE:  I bought it!  It's great!  I can't decide if it should live outside on the deck or inside in the living room...

Heart




If my linens had a home that wasn't mine, they would live at Nightwood

Moving Soon...




Moving is making me very sentimental for my tiny abode.  (Although I am only moving less than a mile away and to a house no less.)  Here are some IPhone photos of the view from my current home and one from inside...

I just can't get this out of my mind...


I've been coveting this forever, but even with Ebay prices, it still seems an extravagant expense. The Alessi Pito Kettle, by Frank Gehry.

Surf Nesting Dolls


These are cool- vintage Playboy illustrations of surfers? Sweet. Found at Poppytalk available at Etsy.

Lamp oh Lamp


I am in love... Seen at Design Sponge, available at LeaLand Eve Boutique.

Cali Pillow Cover


I couldn't resist putting this up- I finished it today and I just love this bit of 70's fabric I found! (If I do say so myself!) Available at Etsy and my shop.

New Viktoria Duvet- Vintage Linen!


I wanted to show you the newest duvet in my shop (or on etsy) - the Viktoria Vintage Linen Duvet and Shams.  Made of almost all vintage Irish linen, this duvet is really special and unusual. I love linen and have been obsessing over Fog Linens for sometime now.  I hope that my Homespun duvets can fill a much needed niche in bedding!

Little Field of Flowers


This may be the coolest rug ever, if it only was cheaper and came in white!  From Plushpod

Large Scale Knitting Part 2


I saw this on the blog Bloesem and the image is apparently from the Dutch magazine VT Wonen and their inspiration house for 2008...  Will have to check out more...

New shop and back from a loooong break...


Hi everyone!  I am back form a long break and will be blogging again regularly...  I want to take a second to introduce you to my new line of linen bedding- "Homespun".  The firest duvet is out and pictured below.  For now, you can find Homespun on Etsy (under the name "anosila" ) and for the long run on Shophomespun.com .  I've already been added to a treasury (yay!) which can be found at http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=13316 .  Homespun is duvets and shams made from new and vintage linen, organic cottons and hand printed fabrics (coming soon).  Thanks for looking!
