The weather has been perfect lately (minus a few rainstorms late in the day) and I was thinking a weekend barbecue might be nice. Then I found these BBQ Invites from Tutta Lou Press and it solidified things for me. I love the colors and the type. I mean you really can’t go wrong with letterpress, can you?
To check out more of the Tutta Lou collection, visit the Tutta Lou Press shop.
Friday’s favorites.
Well, the post I had planned for this slot today has turned into a bigger project than I expected, so I’ll be saving it for next week (hint: its a mini tutorial). But for today, I thought I’d leave with some home inspiration. Little pops of chartreuse in a neutral room bring everything to life!

I think I have bookmarked just about every piece of jewelry over at Edor recently. Cindy, the woman responsible for this gorgeous collection, somehow flawlessly incorporates a dainty femininity with modern and understated shapes.
Everything from this jewelry line would make for a gift any girl would welcome. Including me, if anyone (hint Jeff) is interested. My favorite piece is definitely this little guy. What’s yours?
Special Offer: Free Shipping at Edor when you mention “papernstitch” in the message to seller during checkout.

This week, Room by Room with FormFire Glassworks takes a look at lounge chair with retro styling, the Neutra Boomerang Chair.
The Boomerang Chair was designed by Richard Neutra in 1942 as part of a California housing project. Made from a frame of veneered plywood and woven-web seating, the boomerang side panels balance lightly on the floor, held upright by rounded side rails. This chair is now in its second release through House Industries, and is available in maple or walnut with either black or natural color webbing. This chair is a little bit of fun in a neutral tone to blend into your modern living area.
Wood is the word of the day here on Room by Room, and handcrafters love it. A versatile material for items from jewelry to home furnishings, solid pieces and plywood panels make for some great artistic inspiration. A classic open media cabinet sits on tapered legs for a Danish modern feel. A solid piece of walnut is routed to create a frame for a favorite photograph. A dog dish and integrated food storage give your pet its own modern edge. Stained wood is carved to create triptych wall art with a light look, while walnut planks are beveled and assembled to create a side table for your preferred cocktail.
Next week I will choose a new iconic piece and give you my picks for accessorizing your modern home.
Today’s picks from papernstitch.com.
