Saturday
best bench.

an amazing bench in the backyard of one of one of savannah's more well-to-do citizens. it's kind of hard to tell from the picture {and from peaking in through their fence} but it must have been at least 8 to 10 feet long!

knitting hasn't completely won me over yet, but i love this knitted mountain from swedish design firm little red stuga. it's 2 feet tall and represents the tallest mountain in sweden, kebnekaise.

i'm feeling a little better, but i needed a binding break! i should have just kept on truckin' with with projects because looking at the internet is dangerous...i want this dress at jumelle SO BADLY. i even like how the model is all..."are you serisouly gonna pay a whole month of rent instead of buying this perfect dress that you'd wear everyday with everything? ew."

"at least your colleagues give you flowers when you have something to celebrate. that never happens if you're a designer. who'd want to ruin a perfectly good vase by putting flowers in it?"

i recently found out that savannah has its own sacred harp society. i've enjoyed and appreciated the style of sacred harp/shape note ever since i got harry smith's the anthology of american folk music {which i highly recommend} and i really want to go to one of their meetings, but i'm too nervous to go by myself!
