Friday findings

Just a few things that made me happy around the blogging world.  Happy weekend.

Today is my husbands birthday! photo

Found this lovely artistic shop thanks to cakies.  Run by Richelle Jean, who also happens to be cakies (ruby's) sister.  Richellephant items are all hand crafted with one goal in mind, to fund her way through dance class.  Got to love motivation!

I love that couch! That shade of olive green would also go amazing with orange or pink. via see saw designs

This spring flower tutorial over at design*sponge has me longing to create my own version! I heart flowers.

This adorable engagement shoot over at snippet & ink with a road trip theme.

Amanda from lace and tea came up with a fantastically girly wardrobe, makes me want to go on a little 

shopping spree.

Danni from oh hello friend gave us a glimpse of her studio as well as leading everyone to lovely clusters' blog list, a place to find new and creative bloggers.

For the foodies in all of us

Why hello blogging buddies, its just about lunchtime here and I just might make you drool over this next blog I found.  Now, I'm not the biggest foodie, as a vegetarian it takes a lot to make my mouth water, as well as recipes that I can actually follow and adjust to my needs, but just about everything over at Not So Humble Pie has got me craving scrumptious little morsels. The photography drew me in, and the ideas and inspiration get better and better with each page.  I guess its a good thing I don't cook egg or else I would probably be another 10 pounds heavier thanks to Ms. Humble!  Do stop on by for absolutely wonderful tips for the kitchen as well as some super creative science inspired cookies.

Abby try again

Oh how I love it when I get on blog tangents, it opens me up to so many great blogs out there that I just fall in love with and bookmark right away, and boy did I find some great ones today!  I'm not exactly sure but somehow I stumbled onto Abby Try Again an amazingly colorful and beautifully styled blog written by a lovely photographer with a delicate eye.  I almost squealed with glee when I stopped by her shop.  Oh how I heart photography.

AND, if you are totally into her photography like me, she has another blog she keeps updated with her awesome point of view, Portland Places as well as This is not my work where she gushes about who inspires her.  I totally bookmarked all 3!
