Kathe Kruse dolls and baby toys:



Käthe Kruse 74807 "Grabbing Toy" Camel

All the Kathe Kruse collection is handcrafted in Germany. The quality is amazing. I do not collect dolls (the company is famous for their amazing high end dolls), but 4 years ago I ran into a Kathe Kruse grabbing toys in a store and I did buy one for my son. It's a cute colorful horse and he is very attached to it. The quality is amazing, the toy still looks and feel like new after 4 years of intensive grabbing and hugging!

three quick ways to create impact with stripes - San Francisco Victorian House Interior - House Beautiful

Ken Fulk Victorian Home Decor - San Francisco Victorian House Interior - House Beautiful:

Ken Fulk Victorian Home Decor "three quick ways to create impact with stripes
1. Paint a wall in bold horizontal stripes.
2. Paper one wall in a pinstripe. It adds depth and texture.
3. Bring a staircase alive--zebra stripes on a stair are nature's best pattern."

And that fireplace!

Crocodile wallpaper from Ralph Lauren. It looks great, that texture, and it's fun. The client didn't know I was going to do that, and she might have been hesitant if I'd said, 'Hey, I'm going to put black croc all over your fireplace!' I saved it for the big reveal.

White Coastal Love — A Beach Cottage:

"Everything I found with a pattern was a large pattern, I am guessing large, geometric kinda patterns are trendy right now…if you want a large black based pattern on a white background in a curtain, email me, I tell you what I could write a book on where to find them actually…as you can imagine a big old black print was not what I was after"

PostcardCollector.org - Vintage Postcard Forum - Beautiful Easter Eggs

Ukrainian Easter eggs (Pysanky) are probably the best known in the U.S. of the fancy decorated Easter eggs. I have postcards of decorated Easter eggs from several countries, but the only Ukrainian egg cards that I have are actually from the U. S.

The first two cards are from the Ukrainian Gift shop of Minneapolis. The third card shows eggs decorated by Lorrie Popow of Arkansas.

The YouTube video shows Ukrainian Pysanka postcards (the link works but wouldn't embed here).

Striped pattern for home decoration | Interior painting + Decorating

Interior painting Striped pattern for home decoration:

"Striped pattern most widely used in interior painting, using different colors to make the vertical or horizontal lines on the wall interior. Interior painting with horizontal lines will make your room seem wider because of the effect of extending the line. Vertical pattern style is rarely used, but if you like this style, this style will impress the interior feels more cramped."
