Doormat

I would feel bad wiping my muddy shoes off on this gorgeous door mat featuring my favorite little birds. This mat comes from one of my favorite catalogs, Acacia (A sheltering tree and a source of healing materials and essential oils. Isn’t that beautiful?) which sells natural handmade products for the home and body.

Postkasse

I remember my childhood being filled with the lovely design of the typical Danish mailbox. I even had a cardboard one as a toy. EveryDay Design celebrates the experience of common design all over the world. I love the idea that you do not have to a design background or be a whiz at Photoshop to really enjoy the everyday beauty that is all around us. I try to think of a world without design and it would be pretty dull.

Bowen Island Shed

Thanks to materialicious for posting the prettiest little shed I have ever seen…and it’s for rent on my favorite island in the world, of course. In the past, I have lived in one room cabins or studios and with careful planning and plenty of storage, I would not mind trying it again in the future.

This darling window box belongs to a secret cottage on a secret island in a secret bay. It rains in the spring, snows in the winter and little boats carry people to and fro.
