forest clash

I just found these gorgeous photographs by Maria of forest clash, and I'm in love. They have a sort of faded, grainy, vintage feel that is incredibly beautiful. Check them out...




Oh and she has a pretty exciting blog, which is where I found the crazy knit below. I will forever admire people with the patience to create these incredibly detailed fiber scenes:

crochet headphones?!

Just had to make a quick post about these crochet headphones. They look so cozy... I want some!

the sound of water makes me sleepy

Late night stumbling on the internet ... and I wish I were about to crawl into this bed. My fascination with the ocean is still going strong, and I would be in heaven here. Isn't it beautiful?

supakitch & koralie

This video makes me miss art school, which is a feeling I didn't think I'd experience this soon after graduating. And now I really want to paint by numbers on my walls...

pie chart money!

Ha, this is a strange post for me, but anyway ... found these brilliant coin designs by Mac Funamizu and I thought they were just way too cool not to share. I would love to see these come to life one day. Check them out:

gigantic knits!

Just discovered "Phat Knits" from Bauke Knottnerus, and of course I'm in love! Check them out:

photo explorer

Just came across these breathtaking images from the "Earth from Below" series by photo journalist Stephen Alvarez, and I'm reminded of my past fantasies of working as a photographer for National Geographic. It's not something that I ever really aspired to, but the thought of traveling to amazing places and making photographs like these has entered my mind more than once ...

post-its

It looks like I'm all about finding fun stuff on the internet today ... And this video is just that. So colorful and crazy; these guys definitely have too much time on their hands. I secretly hope something like this happens while I'm at work ...

awestruck

I am totally in awe of this amazing wind knitting factory by Merel Karhof Product Design. It's pure brilliance, and I want one to put on my house or balcony someday. Check it out!!!

projector ring

Just discovered this projector ring created by Luke Jerram, and all I can say is that I really, really want one. Creative, clever, and super sweet, this ring appeals to both the photographer and hopeless romantic in me...

abandon

As anyone that has seen my Abandon Series should know, I'm fascinated by abandoned buildings. What photographer isn't? I think it is something that we all turn our lens to at some point. Below is a collection of images found on TheCoolist, all featuring some amazing abandoned places. I want to go explore!






On a side note, my aviator cap was featured in the daily favorites at papernstitch today. :)

moss house

I've been having a love affair with moss for some time now. I love all the different kinds, the color, the texture. Moss is awesome. So imagine how I felt when I found/read about this moss house project tonight. Check out the pictures below. For more information, see this post on Design Sponge.

a cool mommy blog

I just found this adorable blog by a cool mom, and it's called Made. I'm in love with the Halloween costumes she made for her beautiful kids, pictured below. Check the blog out here.

the happiness project

I just posted about this on my Senior Portfolio blog, but I know that some of you don't look at both. Anyway, it's kind of self-explanatory, and pretty cool. Charles Spearin pairs the natural melody of the voice with musical interpretation. Check it out.

sylvie becquet

This morning I saw a post about Sylvie Becquet on Desire to Inspire, and was inspired to check her website out for myself. The layout for the site itself is very clever, and her job seems amazing. I want it! But then, what photographer wouldn't want to shoot interiors for Elle?

edgar muller

So, I was stumbling for the first time in a long time tonight, and came across a video that blew my mind a little. Ever heard of Edgar Muller? His street art is ridiculous. Ridiculous! Click the title to this post to see a crazy video of him making one of these crazy paintings in Iceland.

jealous and inspired

Some things I found while browsing (a rarity for me these days) today. . .


Estela Lugo's animal pillows are absolutely precious. I desperately want them for Henry. . . maybe we'll just make a set together when he's old enough for paint.
These felted crochet bowls are so adorable! I found them on Modern Dose and am dying to make my own.

I found these handmade lights today on Design Sponge (http://www.designspongeonline.com). I want to make some!!! I've been knitting a lot lately, but these really make me want to get back to some crochet projects. I'm jealous because I didn't make these, and I'm not sure when I'll get around to doing something similar. I have so many ideas for lighting. Someday I will make a bunch of lights, whenever I can get some hands-free time again. In the meantime, I'll keep looking at stuff like this and getting inspiration overload.
