laura nugent paintings

i am enjoying the folksy stylings of kansas artist laura nugent’s acrylic paintings. i like the relaxed brushwork and soft edges, the symbolic references of these motifs and the expressive color palettes that compliment them.

i especially like laura’s patchwork series.

summer salt design

i like these sweet little one of a kind birdie arches from california crafter nicole peterson for her summer salt design company. they measure about 5″h x 7″w and include embellishments like vintage millinery flowers and glass beads. i think they’d be cute in a child’s room.

hold on - nicole makes cute reuseable shopping bags and purses too!

i like nicole’s eye for fabrics, finishing and color combinations. these are bound to bring the spring on just a little bit earlier!

check out nicole’s blog here and purchase these and other cute items over at her shop.
