I’m kind of already failing at the whole baby book thing. At first I thought that I didn’t really want one because I knew I would forget about it and then always have it hanging over my head… then M was born. I now want a baby book. Over a month in, I’m a little late to the game. Anywho, I’ve been searching for something good. I hate cheesy books and I would never scrapbook {way too much commitment!}. Cue: Ruby Love.
I absolutely love these baby books. I kind of want to buy 10 so I can have one for all of my future kids {and yes, probably have some to give away too}.
Not only are the cover options fun, the pages inside are simple and cute.
Well, I’m off to try to convince the hubs that $60 for a baby book is totally legit. If you or someone you know is having a baby anytime soon, I would definitely check out all of Ruby Love‘s options!

I’ve known for quite a while what the general plan for the nursery would be. It would have gray walls, yellow accents and elephants. Elephants were clutch. {I then realized how ridiculously trendy this was, but heck, who cares.} I picked out a fabric, had the walls painted and now comes the hard part. What else do I put in it? While I haven’t decided on a crib or really any furniture, I did find these adorable prints from Trafalgar Square to go on the walls.
All three prints are on my universal registry, but since Trafalgar Square is having a 50% off sale, I may have to just snatch them up myself I totally just bought them for myself.

After a bit of a ceramics kick, I decided to share with you something totally different. Letterpress is something I think we can all agree is simply amazing. Whenever I have my hands on a set of letterpress notecards, I always make sure that they go to the most special people in my life. They’re the kind of cards that you hold on to {though, I hold onto them all actually!} The ones from Ruby Victoria are no different.
from her classy thank you notes…
to her fun Christmas cards…
and even her sweet owl book plates…
I really love it all! And not to bring up Christmas again… but I do really love all of gift tags she has as well! A new letterpress shop is opening up near us and I can’t wait to stop in for a visit. Do you have a favorite letterpress shop? Please share!
You all know how much I love handmade products. I also love all natural products. I get really bummed out seeing products as simple as soap made with all sorts of chemicals. I dream of a life on a farm where I grow my own food, make my own soaps, clothes and linens.
Until then, I will have to buy my soaps from wonderful sellers like Love Nature NYC. His collection of soaps, candles, and salves are all natural and made in his own little New York studio. I’m already drawn to the Sweet Mandarin and Sandalwood candles as well as Rosemary Peppermint soaps. I also love the idea of a coffee sugar scrub…
Do you use natural bath products? I have to admit, I usually don’t due to money constraints, but every so often I get the chance. One day I will treat myself far more often.
For some reason I am completly drawn to this kitschy vintage table cloth. I can picture it on a nice wooden table in a small room full of plants, shelves of knick knacks and books… and with the windows open.
I know its a lot to imagine in just one table cloth… but doesn’t it sound lovely?
Normally this would be far too kitsch for my taste, but sometimes the kitsch just tugs at my heart strings. How about you?
