Favorites From The Last Week

Happy Sunday! It's been such an eventful week full of excitement and random wonderful finds. Each piece in this collection I put together stood out to me and was calling my name. They are from different sites but seem like they are from one collection seeing how they are unified by color and style. Every piece was picked out to portray a feeling this week. This feeling is that of relaxation. I touched upon the topic for a few posts and I feel like this collection really sums up the last week. Get ready to sit and kick your feet up, these pieces will surely make you forget your troubles and make you feel lighter and happier.

Cute Doll

This is by far one of the cutest dolls I have seen. Craftist-artist Yeo Mei Ying has an eye for cute. Her dolls are fierce, vicious, and incredibly adorable. It has the right balance of good and evil which creates a delightful combination. They are light-hearted and gives you a sense of joy.

Wall Vase

Keeping in line with all white interior design, this wall vase is pretty relaxing. The fact that they come in an odd numbered set creates an off-balance and dynamism. This keeps the focal point more interesting while still being a unified neutral color.

Pendant Lamp

This lamp is geometric, minimal, whimsical, and extremely different from what we picture a lamp to look like. It was created by Normann Copenhagen and does an exceptional job at being a tranquil focal point. This piece is simple, yet intricate at the same time. It's a piece you can stare at all day and still be amazed by it days later. It can take you away from the world and bring piece to your mind.


Redbowl

This photo doesn't do this piece justice. This redbowl by Doug Johnston plays tricks on your vision. At first I thought it was a ceramic piece. It's organic shape was so convincing. Then I found out it is actually made of cotton sash cord and threads. That fact instantly sold me on this piece. The color combination is neutral and complements each other well. This bowl is a statement piece that demands attention.


Mini Treasure Pot

This miniature pot is the most adorable thing ever. It's natural wood goes perfectly with the rubber coloring. It gives off a sense of serene and calm. It's small stature is perfect for small little treasures or surprises. 

Hand-letter Print

This piece by Lovemaki sums up this entire week in one photo. Life is about living and loving, being as simple as black and white. We need to live life stress free, keep calm and stay relaxed. Having personal items in and around your living space can change how you feel and act. Stick with light, neutral colors and minimal shapes. Pair this with odd numbered sets for a more dynamic setup without it killing the mood. If you want to feel relaxed this Summer, lighten up your atmosphere to lighten up your life!
