Holiday Monday Moodboard

It's a gorgeous sunny holiday Monday in France, Whit Monday, perhaps where you are too! I've made a moodboard inspired by the European Street Team shops that I return to time and again to browse and to dream because they take me to some other place or time, some enchanted world where, like a holiday, I can take a break and get away from everyday routine.

Monday Moodboard

Some clouds, some sun...that's what the weather has been like here in Lyon, France this month. These lovely selections from the European Street Team on etsy are just perfect to show you what I mean. Perhaps you've been seeing the same type of changing skies where you live?

Button Post

I don't know how to knit, but if I did, I'd put beautiful and original buttons on my scarves, gloves, sweaters, shrugs. Mostly ceramic. My favorite material. With these lovely buttons from uniquebuttons on etsy, I can combine my love for natural history and ceramics. My plan? Change all the buttons on my store-bought sweaters next winter.

Thanks to P8, I'm discovering so many artists who make buttons from all types of materials; check out her blog for more button stories!
