Envision has moved to EnvisionBlog.com

I'll be updating our new site as much as I possibly can!

Pigeon Vase @ Three Potato Four

Where: Three Potato Four
What: Ceramic pigeon vase
Who: J Mendicino
Price: $60.00

I am eyeing this little pigeon vase (I have the perfect place for him on my buffet). It is 6" tall and created by San Francisco artist J. Mendicino and available through Three Potato Four. (Also available in 4" size for $45.00)

Apologies

I haven't been updating much lately due to moving house! Bear with me, I will be back ASAP.

Wallpaper

We had to decide fairly quickly about the wallpaper for the new SixOneSix shop (which is nextdoor to ourselves!) but this is what is going in. Harlequin Decadence in Passion.

We were going to purchase it in a store locally but found that we more than halved the price by purchasing from the UK (Saved $600). So thats what we did, and it arrived within four days.

The wall preparation is no fun at all, lining paper is slippery and slimy and just downright bad to work with, but we wrangled it into place for one of the walls, one to go. Then the wallpaper goes on.

Anyway, I like to look at this picture to give myself hope that it will turn out to be beautiful after all the pain of putting it up! I wish I didn't love wallpaper so much!

Chip Chop is having a sale!

Ooh! Chip Chop has a sale on selected stock! Get in fast and get your Chip Chop cheap or it might all get snapped up.

I like the "And It Was So" tote ($79) from the Psalms of Summer collection. It's just a lot of fun!

Check out the "surprise" section of the Chip Chop website for a bit of a chuckle with the random happenings in Chip Chop land.

My Folk Lover

While looking at some of the new items on Etsy, I came across the wistful, whimsical and beautiful works of art by My Folk Lover.

Everything seems to be magical, as though the girl in the images she creates are living in a fantasy world of make-believe while seeing strange and wonderful sights that are fun and playful.

Pictured is the "Dig Deeper" print which is an original ink, watercolor and collage drawing. Available for $15.00 in the My Folk lover Etsy shop!

Hoot hoot!

I absolutely ADORE owls and anything that has an owl on it or in it. So when I checked out the Etsy featured items and saw this gorgeous hand cast owl ring I had to mention it!

Completely hand finished, this heavy sterling ring is made from a mold of a vintage button. (There is a necklace featuring this owl too if necklaces tickle your fancy!)

You can purchase this lovely owl ring for $90.00 from bronzegirl1's Etsy shop!

Chic Vinyl Accessories

Chic Vinyl Accessories has some gorgeous clutches, handbags and wallets! I especially like the Vine Wristlet ($17.00) which is available from the Chic Vinyl Accessories Etsy shop.

Cozy Corners

When it comes to furnishing my new place, I hope to have some spare corners for chairs and cushions, somewhere nice to sit.

I think I kind of love the Lillberg chair from Ikea. I want a stylish rocking chair and this may be it, plus it has a funky bold print.

As soon as I move in (February!) I will be posting some photos for a before and after. But, it is renovated inside already. So the photos may not be shockingly different. Just my own touches here and there to make it home.

Bosom Button

The Bosom Button is a godsend for those who don't want too much cleavage but want to wear crossover dress, wraps or low cut tops day to day, or out for a night on the town.

Howlindoggie

Another cute little Etsy find, a Moeko pendant by Howlindoggie. I am seriously considering snapping up this little number. I love Japanese blossoms. It would look lovely on a simple dress or top.

Be sure to check out the other designs in the Howlindoggie etsy shop too.

Rachel Stephens Photography

Women grow up thinking that magazine models are what they need to aspire to be. This means most women feel unhappy with their appearance sometimes for their whole lives. I know I'm definitely behind anybody who wants to raise the self-esteem of women today because I know we all need it after being bombarded with images of perfection in magazines every day.

Rachel Stephens Photography is all about changing the way we see ourselves. Photographs are created just like in a fashion shoot. Glamorous locations, professional make-up and the result is magazine worthy images that make women feel as beautiful as the models in the magazines, sometimes for the first time ever.

Check out the Rachel Stephens Photography website to find out more.

Busy busy busy

I haven't posted here in a little while because I have been organising the purchase of a new apartment, and it has been taking up a lot of my time! I will be back posting again in the next few days with move interesting finds for your home.

Calling Cards from Pressa Russa

I stumbled upon these pretty little calling cards by Pressa Russa.

They can be found in the Pressa Russa Etsy Shop, which is full of wonderful and unique stationery.

I just love the coordinating sleeve to store them in. They're perfect for keeping in touch while you are on the go.

Bored Inc!

I walked in the door to find this delightful little package waiting for me, full of goodies from Bored Inc. So cute!

I think I am in love with everything they design. Even their packages look irresistibly cute!

I recently wrote about their nesting doll wall decals on here, which are even more adorable in real life. Browse their website for more of their Decorama range to find something that will suit your home style, or even that perfect piece of jewellery to brighten up your outfit!

Clare Nicholson

I found Clare Nicholson's beautiful prints and designs through Betty and Jeff, and I found out about Betty and Jeff through the Modish blog!

The print pictured (Secret Garden) is $90 AUD but well worth it for such an intricate piece that would work so well in a vintage inspired room that needs some hints of colour.

Check out her website for more beautiful designs. Pillows, wall hangings, badges and cards which all feature her delightful patterns and artwork.
