Inspiration - vintage packaging

I have no qualms in saying that I am completely jealous of Christian Montone's collection of vintage crayons, paints and art supplies on Flickr. I want everyone of these - and he has so many. I think they are terrific! You must check them out asap.

Inspiration - pattern

I featured some book photographs by Jelens a year or so ago but I was reminded how lovely they are when I stumbled upon this top photograph on Craftgawker the other day - submitted by See Me Everywhere. Aren't they wonderful?Thanks for the reminder!

Found - upcycled retail fixtures

I see these all the time in junk stores - I think that they are store fixtures(for announcing sales and prices etc on a retail display) But when they are grouped like this, as picture frames, they are really special, aren't they? They look like they're from Pottery Barn! Makes me want to go to the thrift store to see if I can find some right now! These are from a grouping by Bricolage Life on this Flickr group. It's a wonderful grouping and great photography.

Stylin'

I absolutely adore this stylist's work. Lula - you can see her work on her website and also on Flickr. She has a great sense of playfulness in her work. I haven't run across her photographs until recently and I can't get enough of them. Originally from Buenos Aires(a place I never spell correctly) and now living in New York. I think you will love her work too. Beautiful!

Flickr Love

I'm just getting the hang of Flickr and I am so amazed at the talented photographers who post their work for all to see. I just fell in love with the following images . They are from the following Flickr members, in order from top to bottom, weeshallmeet,  tanjatiziana, lightlycrazed and plautila. Let me know if you have a Flickr Photostream that you think I might like - I'm not a very good photographer - I'm working on it!
