pretty pebbles

> I ran across these wonderful "flower pebbles" in my web browsing. I think they're wonderful! You can order flowers, initials, a significant date, or one of several icons. This is a huge improvement on the pet rocks I created as a kid! You can find them here.

delicate design

> I received a birthday gift today: 2 antique handkerchiefs! I'm looking into their "back story", but in the meantime, I wanted to share them here. They are so beautiful and the patterns are so wonderfully designed. They inspire me--I would love this pattern printed, online, and apparently even on something that at one time was intended to blow one's nose into (although I don't know how someone could defile something so lovely!)

another visual pun

> I bought something at Barnes & Noble last night, and guess what the design on the bag is? Yep, another visual pun. I just had to share it since it was only last time that I mentioned how much I love things like this.
