What a wonderful week at the beach! Took a few minutes away from the family to snap some pics of these adorable items made from my <a href="http://www.ttfabrics.net/cgi-bin/fabricshop/gallery.cgi?Category=731">Ship-Shape collection</a>. And of course, I have to put in a couple of cute pictures of my boys frolicking in the waves. So long, summer...we'll miss you!</div>

My mom was in town, so I made quick use of having an extra pair of hands around. I worked on a cute project- brightly colored pennant banners for the boys rooms. This was about as easy as it gets. I simply made a triangle template out of construction paper and used it as a guide to cut out my fabric triangles, then secured them together at the edges with a small "x", using cooking twine. To personalize each one, I loosely drew letters on construction paper, cut them out, and glued them on the center flag. Instant room upgrade!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfylla4uLqTLMkktIz6IP4TcZPwvWYa62iZX4oo-3WaoptHdyxVRjcFqfImCRKk6r6tVENAujA-gcL3LcdsWNPEk7KXk0ZqmZMcG8GSwZsSNsvlx87Z1ID0V1l7wQDi2dfII-ZGTDT6JGL/s1600/flag5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfylla4uLqTLMkktIz6IP4TcZPwvWYa62iZX4oo-3WaoptHdyxVRjcFqfImCRKk6r6tVENAujA-gcL3LcdsWNPEk7KXk0ZqmZMcG8GSwZsSNsvlx87Z1ID0V1l7wQDi2dfII-ZGTDT6JGL/s320/flag5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

I always find such cool stuff there, and I noticed that they carry even more products in the <a href="http://www.muji.us/store/" style="color: red;">online store</a> . My son Rowan loves to cook with us, and I'm hoping Liam will too.

Here they show the blue trend- rich cobalt blues in various shades. I have been hearing a lot about this trend from various sources, and I am loving the vibrancy and glossy surfaces.alicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10231769751433430673noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4259827531753831999.post-58690605401556903992011-02-01T07:35:00.000-08:002011-02-01T07:35:59.178-08:00newsworthy<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiplHpZIM57ROfb_bpDUkZgOE9oKa_Iy5NkzsgY8sSAnF57D3OYrupgQXjTL2hb8CH5FD5xhNpUz-s77x7nZlFcXuhui7jGMEmqNR4RX3HocgmZ35iSV9GMg7wOuZUPzSUhjg-etjcJATem/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-02-01+at+10.27.50+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiplHpZIM57ROfb_bpDUkZgOE9oKa_Iy5NkzsgY8sSAnF57D3OYrupgQXjTL2hb8CH5FD5xhNpUz-s77x7nZlFcXuhui7jGMEmqNR4RX3HocgmZ35iSV9GMg7wOuZUPzSUhjg-etjcJATem/s320/Screen+shot+2011-02-01+at+10.27.50+AM.png" width="269" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT8ByW1gb_nTj49YarnwVVnob5HuYmwzf1q2D-cP3SwsOpuqgh1RdBACRBQ1bfMqLX02u6wm-VGSOuYqaiDp0MQsRZS3dK2kU_y7gz_I9Hzjb-vJwa_xAa6EHcNXMEKLThKzK6sBIRavXk/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-02-01+at+10.31.22+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT8ByW1gb_nTj49YarnwVVnob5HuYmwzf1q2D-cP3SwsOpuqgh1RdBACRBQ1bfMqLX02u6wm-VGSOuYqaiDp0MQsRZS3dK2kU_y7gz_I9Hzjb-vJwa_xAa6EHcNXMEKLThKzK6sBIRavXk/s320/Screen+shot+2011-02-01+at+10.31.22+AM.png" width="230" /></a></div>I don't know how the weather is where you are, but here in NY we've got what they call "wintry mix"...cold, slushy, rainy, snowy, and grey.

The red accents are right on trend and are a lovely way to brighten up the home- and just look at the adorable <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.vitra.com/en-us/home/children/">plywood elephants</a></span> from their <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.vitra.com/en-us/home/children/">children' line</a></span>- they are reproductions of a Charles & Ray Eames design from 1945. The elephant theme seems to be everywhere (more on that later). Last week I visited <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.printsourcenewyork.com/the_show.html">Printsource</a></span>, a surface and textile show here in New York, and during the trend forecasting seminar the presenter talked about scarlet red as a continuing theme in home decor, as well as red objects for the home in curvy shapes like these lovely chairs. The <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><a href="http://www.vitra.com/en-us/home/products/panton-chair-classic/overview/">Panton chair</a></span> was designed in the 60's by Danish designer Verner Panton and looks better than ever.
