unruly things

I’m just a little bit in love with this egg print by Abby.

p.s.  it would be perfectly paired with the March print from our Specimen Calendar.  I hope those of you who purchased the calendar are enjoying the egg print this month as much as I am.  it’s really one of my favorite specimens.  by the way, do you have a photo of the calendar up in your space?  if so, I’d love to see it.  please email them to hello {at} postalpress.com

I’d visited Terrain’s online shop once before Christmas but my visit today left me with a whole new impression considering I’ve got a new home to decorate.

{thanks for pointing me this way, Chelsea!}

seriously.  how freaking adorable is this guy?  see him and more baby animals here.

a shop full of odd curiosities and natural wonders?  sounds like just the place for me.

Maggie wrote to tell me about these beautiful new prints in her shop, Fiction.  I just love the pretty details!  Maggie also has a beautiful blog called Folkloric, make sure to stop by.

dlb are considering Belize for our honeymoon.  while doing research I came across some crystal caves, which prompted me to do research on other crystal cave sites that might exist.

then I hit the motherload.

these photos are from the amazing crystal caves called Cueva de los Cristales in Naica, Mexico.  amazing, right?

dlb and I watched a fascinating video about all the organisms you could find in one cubic foot of soil or sea.  can you guess?

anyone knows I can’t resist a pretty geode.

a friend of mine sent over a link to the beautiful work of Christopher Marley.  he carefully arranges colorful and strange insects in almost every color of the rainbow into framed works of art.

stunning right?

fueling my never-ending love for space photos with these amazing beauties.
