Don't you just love...

...Darling Clementine? Saw this post about one of their mugs here, and since The Toddler has the Marionette cards (below) up in his room, I felt inspired to share some more of their other work. See more here.

Lucky me!

At the end of last year the lovely Jen of A Little Birdie Told Me gave me the Liebster blog award! Thanks Jen! I love your blog too - especially the House Envy series :-) The award is for blogs with less than 200 followers, so here are five other up and coming blogs that I love that I'm passing the award on to:

Dear Olive

One Denim Bird

Pop-i-Cok

Comme un Oiseau fait son Nid
(I don't speak French but the pictures are pretty :-)

PolkaDot Lighthouse

So, fellow bloggers, now the award is passed to you and the rules are pretty simple: paste the logo, thank the person who nominated you for the award, and then pass it on to the five other up and coming blogs (with less than 200 followers) that you love to read! 

Let them eat cake

Can you tell that I am in the mood for a little bit of cake... Let Them Eat Cake was a collaboration between Paul and Jordan Ferney. Jordan chose the subject and baked all the cakes, and Paul painted them. What I want to know is, who ate all the cakes afterwards ;-) See more of Paul's work here, and check out Jordan's blog here.

Ice lolly anyone?

Phew, it is roasty toasty in Cape Town today! Even The Toddler couldn't stand to be outside for more than 2 minutes before demanding to go back indoors. Definitely an ice lolly day - only problem is, is that it is too hot to go out and get some! Will have to make do with this felt brooch by Hannah Doodle instead...

I heart this heart

Loving this vintage copper jello and cake mold from Jacquie Rae. I think it'll look pretty awesome on my kitchen wall! Find it here.

Non Je Ne Regrette Rien

I am absolutely smitten with this poster by Sarah And Bendrix. The gold foil and matt black are a fab combination! See more here.
