I'm In Love...

This weekend C and I went to the American Craft Show in Baltimore. These weren't your run-of-the-mill homemaking-night crafts, ladies. These were pieces of art more than anything. Here are the top three favorite things I saw:

These lamps. Simply beautiful. (Check out their catalog here.)


This bracelet. LOVE it. The designer told C that I deserve a "push present." I don't really know what that means exactly, but as long as it includes the word "present," I'm game.


These quilts. The pictures don't do them justice. They are unbelievable. Anyone looking for a last-minute, few-thousand-dollar baby gift, one of these will do.
