If you need a place to start, this Ceramic Elephant from West Elm, is a perfect mix of whimsy and style. If you believe wives tales they say an elephant turned a certain direction also brings good luck.
Kickin' It Old School

Over the weekend, I saw a man walking down the street with a big boom box and music blaring from it. While that alone was a sight to see, I'll admit I felt like I was in the middle of an 80's flashback and couldn't help but get a little nostalgic. Lucky me, this ipod boombox, allows for a nostalgic flashback with out trying to re-create a mix tape.

I saw these adorable wheely bugs and thought how adorable for summer play for little ones, but also how perfect this would be for my best friends youngest little girl.
After seeing the wheely bugs, this plasmacar is great for summer travels through the neighborhood too.
Let's Have a Picnic!
>> Friday, March 28, 2008

The blooming trees and chirping birds has me excited for Spring and well Summer too, so I thought about all the wonderful things you can do outdoors and thought... let's have a picnic. Call your friends, make it a full day escapade with card games and conversations or intimate for two. Either way, here are some lovely things to get you inspired and outside.

Snap a party place setting. Easy to pack and you don't have to worry about whether or not you have enough plates or utensils.
Pull some recipes out of cookbooks like this one.
Instead of a picnic basket, think about a picnic backpack, filled with all the things you need even if your picnic is impromptu.
Of course there are so many components that can make your picnic perfect, but feel inspired to hang outdoors and not let a good day full of sun pass you by!

If you had "try something new" or "learn a new language" on your list of new years resolutions, these French and Spanish Flash Cards would be a perfect start. These cards are great for kids and adults plus the pictures are just so delightfully cute who wouldn't want to learn that el conejo is a rabbit in spanish.
