wednesday’s wall: the big picture.
i’ve been on the hunt for a large format photograph for my dining room, and i love many that i’ve found, but the problem has been price. can you say cha-ching? i must have exceptional taste, because everything i like is way out of my price range. but then, i discovered the work of debbie carlos, who has an etsy shop with a great variety of large format prints available at very affordable prices. debbie is a photographer based in Chicago, selling these oversized (most are 48″x 36″) posters of her photographs printed on bond paper.
debbie has also started making these large, and very delicate color prints (above) which are printed on vellum, which makes these images even more airy. the subject matter is simple, but rather ethereal, and look great hung with just some simple clips (even more affordable than framing!), which just allows the breeze to kind of blow the paper gently, as if alive. love them! for more work from debbie carlos, visit her etsy shop.

under construction.
i’ve long been an admirer of textiles and accessories from new york-based hable construction. i also think their name is really cool, which founders susan and kate hable named after their great grandfather’s road construction business! i have yet to meet the hable sisters in person, but kate hable and i have been tweeting each other quite a bit, so i asked if i might share a glimpse at their beautiful products. hable construction is a textile design company that makes bags, home accessories, table linens, pillows, gardening accessories, and other fun and functional home accessories from their fabrics.
photographer rinne allen has taken some scrumptious shots of the hable construction line, and i’m here today to share them with you. just yummy! for more from hable construction, check out their complete line of fabrics and homewares on their website, and more from rinne at rinne allen photography.

i spy: aqua.
today, i spy, with my little eye something that is aqua. soothing, calm, cool collected aqua. maybe because san francisco’s in the midst of a mini heat wave (it will never last!) i needed a dose of aqua. there’s a reason it means water in spanish. rest your eyes on this.

tuesday’s girl: juco.
i recently discovered the photography of julia galdo, and really felt drawn to it. then i saw more of her work teamed with her partner Cody Cloud, working together as JUCO, entitled ‘Cactaceae’, a story shot for TOKION magazine. i loved the images shot in the desert, at Moortens Botanical Garden in Palm Springs, with a kind of modern, native american aspect to them, that i keep seeing in fashion trends these days. here’s a look. i hope you like. for more fantastic images from juco, visit their website.
