I have the feeling hot air balloons might become the next big thing. They seem to be showing up more and more. Here's a collection of some that really stood out to me.

You can make your own garland with this kit. I think it's for a baby shower/room because you can pick between pink and blue. But I think they're just lovely in general.

Modcloth currently has three amazing hot air balloon dresses to choose from. I'd be happy with either one. Aren't they stunning?

This vintage poster makes me imagine all sorts of stories. It's very pretty too!

Love the colors in this mobile. Is it just me or does everything really seems to float in the air?

Another less conventional print that proves hot air balloons can be kinda kick-ass after all.

These chalkboard wall decals would be an amazing "guest book" in the bathroom, I think.

No collection is complete without a stamp, right? And this monogrammed stamp is perfect!

This amazing cake was made for a baby shower. But I would not mind at all, if it were a permanent feature in my home!

And I just love the vintage feel of these printable boxes!

During flu season it's extra important to eat as healthy as you can. You know what they say about an apple a day, right? Anyway, here's a nice collection to remind you of that.

And if you do get sick, at least you can lie on this lovely pillow.

These earrings are so cute! They'd look amazing with a vintage floral dress.

Perhaps a bit Christmassy, but a lovely stamp set nevertheless.

Honestly, I always think baby booties are cute. But these take the cake! Or in this case apple pie perhaps.

This brooch would probably look amazing on everything, but somehow I picture it pinned to a satchel.

If you need something to make your chores easier, you might want to consider these dish washing sponges.

This deco tape is so pretty! It looks great like this, but you could also cut it up per fruit.

When licking these envelopes, you'll taste the fruit pictured on the edge. Nice idea, right?

And to end with something that's actually food-related: a lovely multi-tiered bento box.

This week I happened to spot a bunch of origami inspired items. It's amazing how many different things you can make with the ancient Japanese folding technique. Here are a few:

I am just in love with this necklace! It is so subtle, yet intricate and very cute as well.

Isn't this brooch amazing?! I suppose beetles are the closet thing to origami in nature, but I'm still really impressed by how this was made.

I love how elegant and delicate this skirt looks.

This crane bird is actually a little lamp.

Not something for every day, but it sure makes an amazing statement necklace.

Isn't this elephant brooch adorable? It reminds me very much of the circus.

I bet this lamp would look wonderful in my new home!

Not only is this necklace beautiful, the money made from it will also go to a good cause!

Believe it or not, but these origami heels are actually wearable.

I really love this dress, especially the back looks very unique.

Can't have a collection without an owl now, can we? I thought this print would fit right in.

Another clever and intricate idea for a necklace!

 And last, but not least, a beautiful little keepsake box.

Moon phases seem to be very popular right now. And I'm quite happy about that. It's one of those natural things that's inescapable even in the city where you can't see the stars. And even there, it feels magical.

Also, pretty magical are these lollipops.

And Gemagenta's idea for a piece of jewelry in the moonphase of an event or day that is dear to you, is just absolutely perfect!

This shirt is lovely! I bet it would make a nice lounge-tee too.

I think I still have a watch somewhere that changes from sun to moon every day. This one says it's a moonphase watch, but I'm guessing it might be the same. Either way, pretty cool, right?

I love the vintage feel of these stamps.

Sake cups are often cute, but this moon phase cup is the best I've seen so far.

The moon faces in this print are just wonderful! And I love it's background too.

I'd never seen it done before, but moon phases almost look made for garlands, don't they?

And it works very well on a scarf as well!

This ring really does look like the moon! And I love how it could match any style outfit.

Currently as a special offer: a silk scarf and moon calendar.

I love how you can mix and match these cute studs from Misluo.

Very pretty and quite educational as well. This print would look great in my new place too!

To my surprise the sound of birds is still present this winter. Though some feathery friends have stayed throughout the cold, I can't say the same for other winged creatures. I miss them a bit, so I made a pretty collection of orange and blue monarch butterflies.

I am completely and utterly in love with these shoes. I love the print, the stunning colors and the amazing elegance.

Fused glass can be so mesmerizing and these butterfly wings definitely are.

Quite an afforable accessory for a wedding. But this clip seems wonderful for everyday use too.

I imagine wearing this Luly Yang dress might actually feel like one has just gotten out of a cocoon and turned into a genuine butterfly.

An original and, I assume, incredibly comfortable necklace.

Ever since I first joined Etsy I've been marvelling at this brooch. It's so beautiful! And available in lots of other colors too.

These earrings would look great with a long floral summer dress, don't you think?

This headband is a real eye catcher! I really love the casual placement of the butterflies.

If I ever find myself with extra time to kill, I might have to practise doing these nails.

Another pair of earrings! These are so cute and delicate!

And finally, some lovely fake ones to use for whatever project you choose.
