Friday Finds

Wishing you a very happy weekend! Here are a few links I've comes across that made me think "wow!" Hope you enjoy!

Inspired by Cannelle et Vanille - I've been following Aran's beautiful photography of places in Seattle on Instagram and recently discovered that she is a self taught stylist & photographer. I have a growing list of places to visit on my next trip across the border.

Encouraging article on taking the leap and conquering fears.

A gelato lover's dream (cute graphics on the site as well).

Stunning wedding photography.

If you haven't already seen this, a great video to watch this weekend.

Book of Notes Volume II

 

Hello! A couple of weekends ago I had a bit of a craft weekend for a special personal project. I was creating a Book of Notes (Vol II). I created Vol I about a year ago last spring. So much of what I do is digital, so it was a really nice change to get out the scissors and glue. My office space was a big mess of paper cuttings, washi tape bits, and envelopes for a few days! It looked like a paper truck had exploded.

The idea for the Book of Notes was inspired by Danni of Oh, Hello Friend. If you haven't seen her books, head on over. They are filled with so much goodness and thought. Some of the prints were from this gorgeous 2014 calendar by Oh the lovely things.

Music Monday

Hello! I hope you had a great weekend. Today I thought I would start a new post on Mondays for music that I love. Starting off is this song by Andrew Belle that has been on repeat for me. Even though the lyrics are a little sad, the melody reminds me of romantic things like cozy nights spent under the covers or an early weekend morning with sunlight streaming into the room. Hope you enjoy.
