blog favourites… bathed in goldeny goodness
Posted in blog favourites, yellow November 20th, 2008 by piablog

A new blog discovery for me, found via Jen at Nectar & Light, is The Unicorn Diaries. I was so tempted to show you a collection of images from her stunning posts but instead I give you just this one above because I insist you must see this for yourself. magic.

Alana has a recipe for yellow cupcakes with chocolate buttercream. She also has a beautiful blog.

Now if you haven’t downloaded Issue 5 of Mankind Magazine yet then you simply must. It is the handmade issue and it is so full of awesome artists and designers that my head is spinning. And let me just say this: if for some reason you ever thought that handmade was “daggy”, then read this issue and your whole mind paradigm will be bathed in a glorious goldeny (handmade) light. So get to it! You can also donate or sponsor the mag, click here for details.

Courtney from under a paper moon filled her blog last week with maps & globes – an awesome collection of posts for those of you (that’s me) who love using maps in home decoration. Some of my favourites of her magnificent map posts are here, here and here.

And I just love this post written by ness.

Happy reading mes amis!

    My sweet Pia, I go away from your blog for a little while and I immediately regret it. Nope, it must not happen again. What lovely treasures you have led me to. You are the white rabbit to my Alice.

    Lots of great things here to look through – guess my ironing will just have to spend another hour by itself while I sit down with a cuppa!
