I love old things that are transformed into new things. That's what much of this movement is all about, right?

And I especially love when the new things reflect back on the old, and remind us of times gone by...like these mail-themed goods. These days, especially since we've gone paperless for bills and bank statements, it seems like the only mail we get are unsolicited ads. And we've gotten off most of those lists, so often the mailbox is just...empty. I want some charming letters delivered in charming canvas mail bags, please.

Shown here: men's cowl and skinny scarf reconstructed from vintage mail bags by MALAM; tote constructed from a vintage canvas Australian mail bag by Yaheesplace; mini letter books from MiniatureRhino; modern vintage mailbox made with an antique solid brass vintage post office box from studio1212furniture

Wishing I had something to dress up for this week. Loving these eco-friendly finds:

organic jersey dress from mydearthing; vegan ballerina flats from TheGeneration; jute and organic cotton slouchy bag from iragrant sacsbio; upcycled wood and steel notepad from fort; yellow tomato upcycled fabric necklace from cinderellascache

It won't stop snowing here. I wish we had a (working) fireplace, but we don't. So I wish I had some of these to snuggle up in instead...

organic merino wool cardigan from gaiaconceptions; organic eco wool hats from urbanknitfits; upcycled oxford scarf from foulardthreads; wool and organic cotton coat from CircleCreations; vegan suede messenger bag from Kinies

OK. If last week I felt like going sketching in the woods, this week it's out to take pictures. The running theme is getting outside. But, with a huge snowstorm looming down on us East-coasters, I think the only outside I'll get today is a trip out for groceries. Sigh.

If it were just a bit warmer... I would want to grab all this and head up to the nature preserve to spend an afternoon sketching in the woods. Come on, spring!

Happy first day of fall! Can we please have summer back now? Here's a quick group of eco finds inspired by the changing seasons (and a bit of fairytale).

I'm back! (Well, sort of... it's amazing how much hand-crafting a wedding takes out of you! I did too much, but that's OK, it was beautiful and perfect and I promise I will have photos for you soon.)

In the meantime, how about a sunny yellow palette for this last gasp of summer? These yellows remind me of that slanted afternoon sunlight that creeps in this time of year and let me know that fall is well on its way...
