Small, embroidered children

My very dear friend Nick has made these funny and beautiful (my favorite combination) embroidered silk scarves and linen pillows. You can buy them on Etsy. Quick, while stocks last! Perfect for Mother's Day. Or Cranky Pants Day. Though you couldn't be cranky for long, festooned in such a scarf.

Finally! My eBay obsession is justified.

The delightful Lexi Green has written a piece for The Inside Source linking my work to my eBay purchases, thereby giving me permission to spend future hours trawling for treasures without guilt. It's work, I tell you!
Happy Spring! (My daughter took this picture of our newly emerged basil seedlings.)
