Ever notice the delightful illustrations on Daily Candy? The artist behind the delicate watercolors is Swedish born Marie-Klara Gonzalez, or Miss Capricho. I think she must paint everything she’s sees, and dreams about. See more of her world, here. She quotes Dolcecity’s description of her observations- “a Swedish girl with Cuban roots looking for a home between dreams, vain hopes and little black dresses”. I think that’s a perfect description. Just Beautiful.

My new place to find inspiration is Pinterest. I just found it, just joined yesterday, and have already logged hours of picture gazing. Denmark based Japanese paper artist Yuko Takada Keller is my first “I love this like crazy” find! I love these large installations for the pattern, texture, and light.

Come join me on Pinterest! We can pin and repin together!

A high fashion bunny, beautiful little illustrations, and some love too. Nothing makes me happier than finding a Fifi Lapin drawing I haven’t seen before! How much do you love the sweetest bride and groom ever?

Pure gorgeousness, right? This dress was  made to billow all over the place and what better way to show these yards and yards of fabric loveliness than riding on the side of a train. Really, really beautiful!

I am in a tizzy over these beautiful portraits by Janet Hill and LOVE the hair ornaments and ribbons she works in.

Just gorgeous… and wouldn’t a print make a lovely wedding gift?

Lovely bunnies…

Lovely saying…

Lovely hand drawn typography…

Fill in the blank cards are just about the sweetest idea ever! I love the simple design of the cards which could be used for Valentine’s Day of course, but wouldn’t it be lovely to give one to your fiance, say once a month, in the months leading up to your wedding?! I want to get the mini Valentines at the bottom for my son…I love the one that say “You are my Sunshine”. Cards by Little Aviary. So sweet…

I instantly fell in love with the designs from Bittersweets when I saw them on Kenzie Kate. Delicate twigs embedded with diamonds- love, love, love! I can’t stop thinking about the bottom right 14K gold twig ring holding a gorgeous black diamond, and the eternity bands in the middle.

This comes from a collection of work done in a calligraphy class in Brazil. I was drawn to these beautiful letters and phrase when I saw it several months ago via Oh Joy! It pleasantly reminds me of the hand drawn valentines I made last year. Honestly, I  just want to skip the madness of the holidays and proceed to straight to the love and lightheartedness that February brings. So for today…I’m leaping ahead…

I’ve shown my love for Fifi Lapin before…and well, because she really just makes me so happy, I am showing her again today. A Fifi print is on my “I wish for this” list (ahem), and oh my, I just found the most adorable bunny ever on a tee shirt as I was looking at the bunny’s blog! Enjoy!
