Today we were introduced to the fine illustrations of Richard Erdoes via the Fishink blog (thanks Craig!).

This illustration of Piazza San Marco is from his 1967 book, Peddlers and Vendors Around the World. If you’re into vintage children’s books this would be a good one to add to your collection. There are currently a few copies available to buy at Abe Books.

Another artist in the vein of our favourite, Miroslav Sasek!

Tuesday Huesday: Homemade bathsalts

Home made bathsalts 'how to' from the Martha Stewart website | H is for Homecredit

Who’d have thought homemade bathsalts would be so easy to make? 6 parts coarse sea salt, 3 parts Epsom salts, 1 part baking soda and then a few drops each of natural essential oils and food colouring – that’s it!

Perfect as diy presents decanted into pretty bottles and finished with hand-made labels and ribbons.

This image encapsulates so much of what interests us – interiors, cooking, styling, photography. The colours in the kitchen are so very Scandinavian – steely monochrome greys – cool, understated and sophisticated.

Stockholm-based Grimsgård has a gorgeous portfolio of interiors, fashion, food and portraiture shots – this is one of our favourites.
