Ikat Get Enough of Ashley Watson + Lina Rennell Bags

Sorry for the stinker of a headline, but it's true! I'm officially obsessed with Ikat. If you show me something with Ikat print, I'll show you how fast I can pull out my wallet. If I could, I'd take a page from Heidi Montag's playbook and buy 10 in 1 day. And then recover by slowly, ever so slowly, eating veggie burgers "fresh" from my freezer cuz it's all I'd be able to afford.

These gorgeous recycled leather and organic canvas handmade bags are the collaborative work of Ashley Watson (whose bags I've admired before) and Lisa Rennell. They're sold at Beklina and nope, they ain't cheap. But they sure would make a fabu Mother's Day gift. Especially the blue one above. I'm just sayin.

Cuteness Overload: Baby Shoes!

The only thing sweeter than a pair of super cute baby shoes is a pair of super cute baby shoes that support a great cause. These vegan Hydra Heart shoes are sold on online at buildanest.com, a nonprofit "microbartering" organization dedicated to supporting female artisans in developing countries. If your kiddo will stay still long enough to have his or her tootsies measured, Molly Puzo of Hydra Heart will make a pair of custom kicks just for junior.
Pssst -- There are some sweet adult styles too!

Mmmmm....Snack Time!

I would love to say that it's only since becoming a mom that I've been reacquainted with the delightful period of the day that is snack time, but let's be honest: I was enjoying snack time for years before Finley was even a twinkle in my eye. It's not just for kids!

Whether you have bambinos or, like me, you're just a dedicated grazer, the reusable snack bags from PB Green are going to be right up your alley. There's no BPA or phthalates to worry about, just good ol' machine washable cotton in prints so cute you'll be tempted to use your new snack trap as a clutch.

Remember, it's always snack time somewhere... so why not snack in style?

Friday Find: Alphabet Pillows

I can't tell you how bizarrely happy these funny little poofy letter pillows make me. Did you smile a little when you saw them? Then you're allowed to keep reading. (Ok, fine: Smiling on the inside counts. But don't be so stingy next time! It's Friday.)

Best part? They're made from recycled suit jackets! Mmmmm, I can smell the pipe smoke from here.

A, B, C ya later!
