if i were in seattle this weekend...

Daily Candy tells me this show is going to be a the ultimate craft show. More than 100 indie designers will be there to peddle their artful knacks along with a DIY wrapping station to help make your gifts imaginative and green. For more info checkout the website. A DIY wrapping station? That's a great idea I hope a lot of craft shows implement. I'd love to see this one.

a lush pad is a happy pad

Daily Candy truly delivered something sweet this morning, visit Lush Pad, an edited version of eBay or C-list, featuring all things that midcentury obsessives wake up for. The categories are a little light in inventory right now, but there's lots of info to keep you company until the goods roll in.

If your pulse quickens at the site of Barcelona chairs, Eames tables and Danish modern credenzas, visit Melanie Carlson's new love child, waiting to meet you now.... get over your
"end of summer blues"- visit Lush Pad today!

I feel a little sick because this sofa looks like one my friend and I thrifted when we were too young and uneducated to know better, we painted it black- it was the 80's!
