four tulips, by jakob marrel

tea & flowers.

…

lately i’ve been taken by the way 5ftinf has captured moments with tea & flowers.  it’s quite nice to see how some folks have been using instagram as a way to launch cohesive & thoughtful series of photographs.  as i have a soft spot for seeing the before & after (or the before & next & next & next) of scenes & spaces, getting to observe how the same rustic tabletop evolves with a rotation of favorite objects & growing flowers & the light of different times of day is particularly beautiful & fascinating.  it’s also been a gentle reminder to take that time for tea.

all photos by 5ftinf.

happy happy may, my favorite month!

spring is my favorite.

a moment from justina’s beautiful & radiant wedding.

i love when the fellows incorporate dainty details.

dear oly has such a sweet way of presenting her stickers.

simply splendid flowers by eight hour day.  

my current desktop background was brought to me by anthropologie.

i treated myself to a spread of pretty paper by bluepoolroad, kate’s papergoods, carolyn suzuki, & rifle paper co.

the card at front should perhaps be revised to read “just a little note from me to me.”

this beautiful card has my heart.
