things I am entranced by today

And you can stare at while I'm gone at the wedding this weekend. Don't expect to hear a peep out of me before Tuesday!

• I'm loving this braided rag rug. It made me remember the rag rug my sister crocheted that was SO AWESOME and soft. (She left all the little tabby ends from typing strips together sticking out on one side, so it was shaggy on one side, smooth on the other, and cozy all around.) Maybe now that I know how to crochet I should try it?
• the sneakily disguised chandelier. Way hott.
• houses from a kit. Suddenly I want to try it!
• a niftycool stripe generator
• little embroidered vegetables! such a ladylike hobby.
• gorgeous, mod, affordable lighting
