Anthropologie Best in Show

Posted on by Hijiri

Anthropologie in Rockefeller Center in NY has not only the coolest window display, but also the cutest gallery space inside. Last week, I stopped by there with my old friend who I hadn’t seen for 13 years (!) and we saw this great exhibition that is going on right now called “Best in Show” — I tool some photos and here they are! Enjoy!

Look at this awesome poodle made out of the lace paper. Love the texture and the vintage feel, so lovely.

and these guys were made out of all sorts of papers. How creative!

A patchwork dachshund :)

This fox was made out of shredded papers and plastic forks.

Cute creature… all cozy :)

There are more in the gallery, if you have a chance, please stop by and meet all the animals.

Let’s have another creative week, shall we?! :)

I found an awesome online shop called Upon a Fold via UPPERCASE blog and I am so excited that I can’t type fast enough!

“Here, you will find a unique collection of paper artistry from around the world – some items you’ll not have seen anywhere else. From beautiful jewelry and pretty stationery to fun paper planes and perfectly engineered pop-ups, this is a magical journey into the world of paper.”

You will find not only a lot of great and unique paper products, but also a lot of inspirations!!! Everything I see is just so awesome, smart, beautiful, unbelievable, fun, cool…. you feel it :)

Play More More More Notebook (aww so clever and fun!!!):

Rainbow Hoop Earrings (can you believe this is made out of papers?):

There are many, many more, please go over to Upon a Fold website and look around!

Funny coincidence, Jenn from Jack + Jenn, Jody from Brin & Nohl and I have been talking almost everyday over at Twitter ever since we found this Origami Jewelry… we all liked it and we are all inspired by folded object, papers, and origami etc… and it seems like it is going somewhere… so stay tuned, we’re going to do something soon… :) So fun!

Cascading Flower Wall Art

Posted on by Hijiri

I am still a bit tired from a fun night out on my birthday last night… (thanks so much to my husband, Randy!) so I wanted to share something pretty and soothing in my tired eye… this beautiful cascading flower wall art by Dashing Etc. Flowers are made of a light blue-gray wool blend felt in an embroidery hoop frame, so it is ready to hang.

There are more pretty felt flower art at Dashing Etc. etsy shop, make sure to check it out!

Have a great day, everyone :)

Mini Planters

Posted on by Hijiri

These mini planters by Yummy & Company have been on my etsy favorites for a while and just saw that they have red ones now for Valentine’s Day :) They make me so happy, look how tiny and cute it looks! (I’m sure it really is tiny)

I still like the black one…

and this…

I never really get the winter blues that everyone seems to get during the winter, but if your loved ones are having one, this might be the perfect little Valentine’s day gift… :)

Hope these would inspire your day :)
