Inspired Artist: Four Crows Art

I love these cheeky little bird prints by Four Crows Art (spotted on etsy's front page).  The pairing of Mid Century iconic pieces with cute little bird silhouettes is unexpected and sweet!  See more right here.

1 + 1 = A Simple Gift 2 Give

Try this little idea for Mother's Day or the next time you need a quick gift for your child's teacher, your grandmother, secretary, etc.

1. Use this easy Tissue Paper Flower tutorial from Martha Stewart - adapt the pattern size and colors to compliment your mug.
2. Pick up an artsy coffee mug such as this Lines & Circles Mug from GoodShapeDesign, fill it with tissue paper flowers... and you're done!  Cute, right!

Over the weekend you might like to take a moment to browse through some of the amazing and inspirational photos found on flickr.
These are a few of my recent personal favorites.  Follow the links to view the full sized images and see more from each artist.

1. bird, 2. Domino Magazine, 3. Memo, 4. Josefines toy......, 5. photo-a-day #114 april 23 spring flower, 6. little gift, 7. "Three o'clock is always too late or too early for anything you want to do.", 8. Untitled, 9. cozy.corner
