spotted: marimekko shop at crate&barrel 04.28.2011

>

Did you guys see this? I got my Crate&Barrel email yesterday and saw that they are introducing a Marimekko shop!!  They’ve carried Marimekko products for quite some time (since the 60s) but now there is a whole little mini-shop dedicated just to Marimekko with tons of new stuff!! AHHH…so excited! Marimekko, established in 1951, is a Finnish textile and clothing design company renowned for its original prints and colours. (Learn all about Marimekko here). They are amazing and have produced so many timeless patterns, it’s hard to keep track of! Cheers to the new shop!

We just learned about this awesome company and had to share! Mascot carries all kinds of fun things for the pups in your life: collars, leads, accessories, apparel and toys that are so cool, you wouldn’t even mind them becoming a staple on your living room floor. All products are designed in house and tested on the owner’s own “mascots”! Check them out: mymascot.com

    >I love this company! I bought my vizsla the green braided collar and we constantly get people asking where they can get one. It has also held up amazingly on my crazy dog for more than a couple years.

Oh Martha! You’ve done it again. We’re not usually super flower-y gals, but these images from the May issue of Martha Stewart Living make us want to say goodbye to the rainy days and hello to spring! Beautifully, styled and photographed! Thanks to The Den for introducing us to these awesome images!
