I love this happy pottery from Kelim Pottery out of Israel.  The simple shapes and sunny colors make these a great gift idea. Not to mention most of the items are $40 and under.  See more from Kelim Pottery on Etsy.

For the past two years I’ve been trying to convince the hubs that it’s time for us to grow up to a king size mattress.  So far he has been resisting and it’s probably because he knows that a king size mattress means a king size bed frame, new bedding and most of all a king size price tag.  I might need to tap into my crafty genes to make an affordable headboard rather than purchasing a whole bed frame. Luckily the WWW is full of inspiration. I’ll be keeping track of my finds on a new Pinterest board titled “Sweet Dreams”. Here’s a little taste, follow more here.

Bed frames in “popover” pattern from Studio Bon.

Black rope poster bed. Bedroom design by Tilton Fenwick.

Glamorous mirrored bed frame from Angie Hranowsky Design.

Coral and white tufted head board from Meredith Heron Design.

Lovely “jaipur” pattern bed frame from Serena and Lily.

I have been slightly obsessed with these bags from Tulisan ever since seeing them on Design Sponge.  I have been visiting the Indonesian website of Tulisan everyday for the past week trying to decide which one of the limited edition illustrations to choose from.  If this keeps up they’ll be sold out before I get my act together.  Today I’m leaning towards the Siesta Tote in the Sound of Dawn yellow print.  Now I need to pull the trigger because the Summer will be over by the time it ships across the sea!

The amazing “Sky Series” by photographer Eric Cahan.

I heart these tiny pinwheel earrings for $28. Check MXM jewelry for availability.

Raksha Bella, one of my all time favorite textile designers for insanely gorgeous bedding is having a ridiculous sale starting today 7/29 through Sunday 7/31 with up to 50% off of EVERYTHING!! This is madness people! Get on it now! I feel a little like Crazy Eddie from those old electronics commercials.  Seriously though, I adore Raksha Bella’s line of 100% organic wood-block print textiles and I’m never one to pass up a great deal or miss an opportunity to share one with you!

Baubles from Etsy seller Not Tuesday.

I love these colorful Sombrilla’s for the beach. For $150 you can choose from three bright patterns in 100% cotton with 95% UV protection. It’s too bad we’ve already gone to the Cape for our beach vacation this Summer or I’d buy the Moroccan Blue version right now.  From Hollie & Harrie.
