Linen rainbow pillow

Whipped this up over the weekend, I have some leftover cream linen from the cloud and raindrops mobile, and wanted to try and make this cute pillow, which is similar to one being sold at Land of Nod.
This company bothers me because of their crazy prices, but sometimes inspires me to replicate some of their very handmade feeling pieces at a fraction of the cost!




This is available now in the SHOP.
have a great day

Saturday's


Every single saturday of every single month we wake up and have pancakes,while daddy stays in bed groaning with fatigue.
  Then we each take our wicker basket of dirty clothes from our rooms down to he washing machine and dump it out, mom runs about 60 washes on saturdays, fun
Then daddy gets up and sweeps the whole house, top to bottom, while mom waters our 800 house plants. 
The big kids windex the windows, whilst complaining.
But what marks our saturday tradition more then anything is this,
Our saturday lunch/all day meal:

Grits or rice with butter and soy sauce
Chard or kale
Red lentils cooked with butter, shallot, cumin a dash of tomato sauce and chicken broth (the turkish way)
Avocado and sweet potato on the side, sometimes tomato salad.

Its soo good.
The kids hate it.
Happy saturday!

More watercolor patterns

 I have been doodling with watercolors a lot lately, playing with prints and patterns
I'm calling these two: "rose petals and river rocks"
Unfortunately my camera is just not doing justice to the colors, art is hard to photograph, and my camera is dulling down these most vibrant colors


 

Happy wednesday!
