tapestry poufs.

Frederique makes one-of-a-kind poufs from vintage tapestries. I love the barn scene pouf on the bottom. Two of each, please?

I could spend hours at the NYPL Digital Gallery, so much, in fact, that I wouldn’t be surprised if Husband blocks the site from our internet capabilities.
But if he did, where would I find such awesome painted eggs?
Faythe Levine (of Handmade Nation fame) captured this surreal moment of her mother wearing the exact same sweater as her — thirty years apart.
Inspiring.
A fascinating article from National Geographic circa 1969:
“Adults and children crowd a small public pool in Reykjavík to soak in natural hot water drawn from nearby springs. Although air temperatures range from the high 50′s in summer to below freezing in winter, the water remains around 85 degrees. Numerous outdoor pools operate year-round, doing a brisk business even in cold weather. Those who have taken the plunge say that few pastimes are more exhilarating than sitting in the warm bath when arctic winds are swirling about them.”
