Who doesn't love ruffles?
For those of us sewing-types who are in love with the romantic embellishment, burdastyle has two lovely tutorials.

Urban Outfitters Under 5

I simply must share with you this 'last chance: $5 or under' sale over at Urban Outfitters.

Hopefully

Hopefully I find time tonight to make a journal using this wonderful tutorioal. If not, I hope you do.

Yesyes

I just lost the link to the collection that this dress is a very lovely part of. Now I can only show you one photo and can't link back. How very sorry I am.

Nice

A romantic light shade from Catlin's etsy shop, nice.

Robot/People Art

Could a human-like object traverse sidewalks and streets along with us, and in so doing, create a narrative about our relationship to space and our willingness to interact with what we find in it? More importantly, how could our actions be seen within a larger context of human connection that emerges from the complexity of the city itself?

These are the questions Kacie Kisner asked. She answered them by building a robot.
Read more about Kacie's tweenbots project here. For now, watch this adorable video.

Topographically Inspired

As you can see, I couldn't decide between the photos. Lovely cards from Crafterall on Etsy.

More Aris

More pretties from Aris Zenone's kaleidoscope set.

Pink and Red

Pink and Red make for a pretty colour scheme. Macaroons. Outfit. Flower.

French dessert

Macarons are the prettiest food I know and Bossacafez photographs them beautifully.

The perfect match

Perfectly paired pictures make me happy. Link.

Uninspired

I needed this card last week. It reads "Not so inspired lately, lets get together and see what happens." Any creative friends of mine interested?

Garden Party

This post at dress design decor has me wanting to host a little english-countryside-style garden party of my own. Image from here.

**Edit: My garden party will definitely have French Macarons and pretty cakes, all topped with rose petals and dusted with icing sugar.

Invite

On the subject of weddings, I love the idea behind this photobooth wedding invitation. I found it over at iDiY which shares some really cute do-it-yourself wedding ideas. If you're looking for instructions, Meg also made some a while ago over at Threadbanger in her DIY Weddings episode.

Flower Diamantes

I know I'm nowhere near to getting married soon, but when I do will someone please remind me of these pretty flower diamantes? I know they're probably not ground-breakingly new, but I was intrigued by the way they catch the light in the first photograph. Photos from Chelsea Anne Photography.
