Treasures from the Grand Tour

We saw this little knit cactus while on a trip to Buenos Aires recently, and couldn't pass it up. The artist was selling them on the street, and had many different versions, but this one with the ladybug caught our eye. The nubby yarn and bright pink flowers paired with the hand painted pot made us love it even more. Being from California you know our affinity for the cactus. This lighthearted item will remind us of our trip to vibrant South America every time we look at it.

Treasures from the Grand Tour

We recently picked up this lovely little shell on a visit to Cooper's Beach in South Hampton, New York.  We were there for a photo shoot and couldn't believe that we found such a perfectly intact shell lying right there in the sand.  We are going to preserve it and add it to our collection of beach objects.
