In the stillness of the night, my heart wanders. It has fallen in love with this series of pictures submitted for Pia’s My Heart Wanders project. Whilst the project is closed for submission, take a leisurely browse through the images, and be heartened that love is, indeed everywhere.

favourites for Jayden

… a kid’s selection for the poor tot who’s still running a temperature …

He is awfully clingy right now. Listless and no energy. His comfort toys right now are mummy, mama, mum (you get the drift). A close contender would be a soft toy and the comfort water bottle he carries around. Other kids have security blankies. He, my son, has a security water bottle. Just carry around but don’t drink. Hmm.

From L to R …

jelly beans on etsy

Jelly Beans reminds me of the Ishihara colour blindness test. What with the coloured dots, the prints just appealed to me immediately. I love the (deceptive) simplicity of the prints… each looks to be a collection of dots but can be interpreted in so many ways.

There is a lovely personal touch in each and everyone of them that cannot be described. I guess it is also reflective of love. You JUST know.

horse whisperer by catherine chandler

Random surfing got me to Catherine Chandler’s blog and totally in love with her wooden horse ring. A throwback to her childhood days (in which said horse was ‘kidnapped’), she has worked it in her entry for this month’s Etsy Metal Challenge.

I sure hope she wins!

Posts will be intermittent. Save for some scheduled ones, updates would get a little sporadic up till next week. I guess I gotta say, see you in Jul! Busy keeping this boy cool.

Meantime, check out the sales section. Up till month’s end (and maybe just a bit beyond). All orders will be processed as promptly as possible. We’d try our best to stick within our promised 3 working days turnaround time. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. Meantime, stay cool!

It has been an unbearably long day. So I logged on to Flickr for some cheering up. Here are some of the lovely tulips that perked me up quite a bit.

Spotted this front page treasury on Saturday morning but like the previous post, have not had the time to blog. I do believe it has expired by now. :( They seem to be changing the front page real fast these days! Not that I am complaining, I love all the eye candy that has gone up.

This particular one is chosen by Monicaj, and has a organic, clean feel to it. I love the subtle colours. Nice and light. Very pleasing on the eyes. Or at least on my eyes.

beehive kitchenware

I was browsing through Trunkt when I stumbled upon Beehive Kitchenware. My my, what a treasure! I think you can just see why. I love the Heart Pancake Spatula (bottom left corner) the most but everything really is vying for that top spot. Browse their site for more lovelies.

Left to Right; top to bottom row …

We found this interesting link in our hit tracker the other day and we are quite puzzled by it.A quick stop at whois.com revealed that the domain is owned by a company based in Istanbul, Turkey so we suspect that the language in which the blog is written is, well, Turkish.

We can’t quite make out what it says so we’d have to trust it is something nice. Until and unless someone can unravel the mystery for us.

Seems like a number of you love the Carriage of Love bracelet. It is running low on stock right now. :) A good thing in our books!
