in the world of animal prints, there are very few furry friends that haven’t been overdone in the past few years. yet, there are a handful of animals that i will never tire of. namely: bears, horses and foxes. something about these animals always grabs me, so i tend to have a soft spot for products that feature them. kristie of humble collection just released a line of pillow covers and tea towels featuring a fox and wild horse pattern that i can’t resist. simple, sweet and printed on 100% cotton with water based inks, each piece is affordable and under $30. now that the holidays are getting close i might need to add these to my list of things that would make fun gifts for friends who are moving and might need a few new accessories. click here to shop kristie’s full collection at etsy.

i also wanted to share this beautiful swing from pratt grad student christina fesmire today. christina’s “fugle swing” is made from maple veneer laminate, walnut inlay and hemp and was inspired by scandinavian design. after weeks of anatomical study on the human coccyx, christina came up with a design that would create a sense of “beauty and livability” and comfort. i know i’d be happy to take a swing on this on a nice summer day. click here for more information on christina’s project….
