I admit it. I’ve been a very bad gardener this year. I have not been outside weeding, pruning, and taking the time to help my garden grow. I never even put mulch down this year, and the weeds are growing like haywire. Everytime I look outside my window or pull in the driveway, I see it – the grass needs to be mown, the weeds need to be pulled, the flowers need more organic fertilizer.
Seeing these lovely outdoor shots from Heather Smith Jones makes me want to be a better gardener though. I feel inspired to get back at it when I see these photographs, they have such a lovely feeling to them. I love when a few simple shots can really strike a chord within you, and these certainly do for me.

This older post from Jordan Ferney caught my eye… I need to add summer dinner parties to my summer to-do list!

These sneak peeks at Geninne’s new home (being built by her husband!) are SERIOUSLY drool-worthy. I thought her current home was gorgeous, but this is incredible. What a view! Check out more images here on her Flickr.

Wonderful, inspiring work from photographer Mikkel Vang. His work has such richness and texture that I find visually haunting. The styling is also impeccable.
I can’t stop looking through his website. Found via inchmark.

So excited to find a wonderful ceramic designer via Design*Sponge today! Cynthia Vardhan’s work is so delicate, with tiny patterned details. I’d love to own one of her pieces. Check out her site here.

I love Mav’s recent post on 3191 Miles Apart with her list of “Must-Have, Must-Do, Must Feel List” for Summer. Like her, there are so many things I have to do during the summer months for it really to feel like summertime. It got me thinking about my must-have to do’s for the next three months (ugh, actually only 2 since June is nearing the end… this year has to slow down!). They are (in no particular order):
Eat the best salad on earth (*shown above)
Have picnics
Go to the beach
Eat lots and lots of watermelon
Drink homemade lemonade
Garden with a big floppy hat
Go for hikes
Take late night walks around the neighborhood
Spur of the moment ice cream runs to my favorite place, and drive home with the windows down
Make pizzas on the grill
Listen to “peepers”
Vacation on Cape Cod
Sleep with the windows open
Watch the sunset
Get really excited to hear the ice cream truck (I still do!)
Sit out on the back porch at night with my husband and watch the fireflies
Listen to a thunderstorm
Go to the White Mountains of New Hampshire
Have a summer reading list
Go to my local farm
Drink margaritas
Go camping
Swim often
Get a golden, sun-kissed tan
Eat fresh and in-season strawberries
What are your favorite summer must-do’s?
A gorgeous and sumptuous paper window display for Pia Jane Bijkerk’s new book, Amsterdam: Made by Hand. I still have to request her previous book from my local library, but I will surely be reading her second as well!
