Serpentijn Art & Athletics

One of the things I'm most grateful for in my life is knowing ubersmart, motivated, kind people.

Case in point: one of my favorite people in the whole world, my buddy Jason Reimer, recently launched this amazing little company – Serpentijn Art & Athletics.

Serpentijn was founded In 2015 to make a positive impact through art and athletics, based on the belief that both play a vital role in learning and living life to its fullest [...] 10% of each purchase you make goes to a worthy non-profit organization, selected by you during checkout.
Serpentijn's first products include designs by illustrator Keith Negley and painter Barbara Ignatiev.

Comma Workshop quilts.

I think I posted these before, but I don't care. I could not be more in love with Comma Workshop's quilts. COULD NOT. I covet every single one.

Bear braid rug.

Ever since I saw this in Dwell magazine last year, I've wished someone would make one of these. A perfect illustration by Craighton Berman.

Dove pillows.

Not that I would EVER pay $180 for a pillowcase - but these are absolutely lovely.

I hate clothes shopping, so I *love* this idea – just buy an entire wardrobe of essentials at once. (Kinda like grown-up Garanimals.)

A core wardrobe of ten pieces for your year made of organic and recycled fabrics.

Bedtime Story Pillowcase Set by David Shrigley

I heart David Shrigley.



A Bedtime Story
One day I was walking in the woods when I heard the terrible roar of a monster. It filled me with fear and I ran back to the village to alert the community. At first some members of the community did not believe me (as my reputation is that of an idiot) but then night fell and the roar of the monster was audible to all in the village, louder than before. It was dlear to all of us that the roar was that of a monster that was fantastically large, one that could come and eat us all if it chose (so awesome was its roar) thus it would be futile to battle with such a mighty beast. We resolved to make a sacrifice to the gods in order to appease them and bid the monster leave us. We placed all our harvest on the altar but lo! The gods were not appeased and the monster's roar grew louder. Then we placed all our chickens on the altar and sacrificed them but lo! The gods were still not appeased and the monster's roar grew louder still. Then we placed our cattle on the altar and sacrificed them but still the monster stayed. Then we burned our homes and our possessions but still this did not satisfy the gods. Thus there was no choice left but to fight the monster ourselves. We covered ourselves in warpaint, took up our spears and rain, chanting and screaming battle cries, into the woods. We could hear the monster's roar away in front of us at a clearing in the woods. In the middle of the clearing was a huge bush; obviously it was the monster's lair. Our hearts pounding, we ran behind the bus to face the monster. To our astonishment there was no monster but some large loudspeakers and a tape recorder; the source of the roar. We later found out that they had been put there by some scientists from the university of Bristol who were studying our behaviour.
The End

Kate Spade Strand collection.

I do love me some Kate Spade. This story collection looks lovely, and I definitely want that tote.



in collaboration with strand bookstore, a new york legend in the literary world, we commissioned short stories from seven female writers. we asked each author to incorporate the phrase, "she is quick and curious and playful and strong" at some point in their story. the end result is a charming collection we're excited to share. artfully designed in a limited-edition set, it's a lovely gift to give (or to get).

Dan Golden pillows.

Unfortunately they're FAR too spendy at $150 a pop, but I love them.

Mint pillow covers.

I've gotta give a shout out to MintDesign for her pillow covers. I'm ordering a second today of this particular design. With a $5 Target pillow insert, the whole thing put me back 20 bucks. The one I have is gorgeous, durable, washable and really nicely made. Plus – the color pops like you wouldn't believe.
