Weekly Finds 4.18.10

After several months of not blogging, I am more than a bit excited to resume it once again. And without further ado, here are my weekly finds for this week. If only I had a Smitten Stick Kit – blogging would be even more fun a la moustache…

New Blogs: I’ve been spending some time sifting through all of the blogs that have highlighted my embroidery at some point and found some gems in the bunch so far. The Violet Hours, Sakura NYC, Little Ocean.

Music Downloaded: Sarah Borges and Broken Singles/The Stars are Out, Ha Ha Tonka/Novel Sounds of the Nouveau South, Nellie McKay/Normal as Blueberry Pie.

Ideas/Inspirations: Postcarden, Victory Garden of Tomorrow, Floating Shelves

Weekly Finds 8.16.09

While I organize my blog posts for the upcoming week, I’ll leave with my finds from this past week. Like these make-at-home paper owls from Mibo (available for  download for only about $1.65).

• New Blogs: Both of the blogs I found this week have amazingly awesome names, in my opinion. Pancakes & French Fries, Big Gay Ice Cream Truck
• Music Downloaded: Dan Auerbach/Keep it Hid, Peter Bjorn and John/Living Thing, Ratatat/LP3, Does It Offend You, Yeah?/You Have No Idea What You’re Getting Yourself Into
• Ideas/Inspirations: Umbrella skirt, Recycled Wine Bottle Torch, Momiji Couture Contest

Weekly Finds 8.9.09

Every week I hope to share the various new and interesting things I’ve discovered over the past 7 days. I’m sure the content will vary from week to week, but I hope you might enjoy some of my finds too. Like the Animal Index book organizers by Hiroshi Sasagawa featured above. If only the library’s budget could support something like this…

• New blogs: Reading & Reviewing, the style files
• Music downloaded: The Ting Tings/We Started Nothing, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix/Phoenix, Bon Iver/For Emma, Forever Ago, Bishop Allen/The Broken Strings
• Ideas/Inspirations: Colorful freehand embroidery, Crafternoons at New York Public Library
