- Incredible picture from Gothamist.com. Crazy storms hit Brooklyn (and here in Columbus) on Thursday. I personally love storms so this photo isn’t too depressing for me. If it is for you….I apologize! Just be glad it’s not like this today.

- I agree with Caroline. I could live in this sweater.

- The Brick House is one of my favorites for home inspiration. I love this post about refreshing vintage wood.

- This back-to-school wish list is adorable. Sometimes I actually miss homework. Weird?

- These prints are amazing. Typography and truth. Nothing better.

- Stamps of disapproval. I’m all for motivation and encouragement but these are pretty great.

- Grey, letterpress, and pretty stamps. All of my favorites.

- These swimsuits are killer! Gorgeous.

- Minimal design meets dish washing. I love this alternative to my current drying rack.

- I have a love for pretty wallpaper. Someday I’ll choose a pretty pattern like this.

- If this doesn’t inspire you, nothing will. Check out this completely renovated apartment.

- Go For It Design and custom type. Wonderful.

- Photos of this house caught my eye. They did a great job of utilizing wood throughout the home.

- I love birthdays. And these photos.

- I always go back and forth between having a tattoo as a piece of art or having one because it represents something very important. Either way, I love these tattoos.

- This video made me cry. Life is a beautiful thing.

- A wonderful, fresh approach to scrapbooking. Love it.

- I found a link to this awesome Mad Men photoshoot. It may be old but how gorgeous is January Jones?

- Have you heard of We Are Hunted? Check it out.

- Richard Renaldi’s work. Touching Strangers.

- And I’m so excited to see Urbanized next year! If you haven’t seen Helvetica or Objectified…do it.

I spent my weekend helping friends move, however, I wish I had been sleeping like in the photo above. So many links for you this week. Enjoy!

- Pink and Gold wedding invitations…*sigh*…I love them.

- I’ll let you know if this is delish later. Ice cream + anything can only be wonderful. Especially in this heat. Also this. Peach. Yum.

- Just another reason to go to London.

- It’s true. It’s the simple things for me.

- Old nightstand…or a new desk?

- Painted driftwood. I love it.

- These Hammerpress posters are wonderful.

- Making memories with your old school camera. I’ve been doing that. Take a look.

- A great way to show your love of books.

- I’m finding my own taste in jewelry. This is an example of exactly that.

- You can now show your portfolio on Linkedin.

- Photo above taken by one of my best friends, Kellyn.

- I want a banquette when we finally own our own home.

- These posters are some of the most visually entertaining pieces I’ve ever seen.

- Can’t stop listening to this album.

^Photo of a windmill farm that I passed on a recent trip to Chicago. Something about windmills always stops me in my tracks.

- I’ve recently found a lot of blogs posting AMAZING invitations lately. It motivates me to always be thinking of new ways to interpret an invitation. Check out these, and these, and these, and these, ohhh and lastly these.

- I like the monochromatic cover along with the use of stamps in this little book.

- Letterheads are SO difficult to design (solely my opinion) and I absolutely love this one.

- Another cute book.

- Seth Godin on “When a Stranger Reads Your Blog.”

- I love this ring so much I “starred” it twice in Google Reader without realizing it. Growing up, I always wanted turquoise in my wedding band but I never thought it could be done well.

- My husband and I painted a wall in our old apartment with chalkboard paint but I think the first photo is a much better alternative.

- Loving the work of AFOM and Charming Baker.

No Monday link love today! I was with family all weekend and played “catch up” all day. Check back tomorrow for an interview with a very talented fine artist! xo.

I promised myself on Saturday that I would try to be consistent with my Monday link sharing! So here you go:

The photos above are from my trip to England in 2007. Lately I’ve been wanting to go back. A lot.

I know POST 27 has been making the rounds in the blog world but if you haven’t checked it out…DO! Beautiful website design and amazing products.

I’ve been dreaming of nail polish this color. Now I know where to buy it. And this. Thanks for sharing Kate!

I perhaps have been LITERALLY drooling over this map. I think I shared this on Twitter but it’s worth repeating.

Adam shared Creativebe with me last week. Fun apps and a great way to store your recipes.

One of my favorite Flickr sets!

I’ve been designing custom and altering basic WordPress themes lately. This has been handy.

Lastly, I’ve been reading about Dr. Johanna Budwig’s Budwig Diet. My 12 year old sister was diagnosed with Celiac Disease/thyroid disorder last year and is currently taking on the flaxseed oil/cottage cheese supplement in her diet. I’m really excited about it and interested to see what happens. She’s only twelve years old but she has the maturity of an adult and she is one of the people I admire most.

Have a wonderful Monday!
