SATURDAY'S SPOONFUL - a small dose of sugar, spice + everything nice

it is gorgeous today in cleveland. the perfect fall day: the the sun is shining, giving us the last glint of summer; leaves are changing; pumpkins are plentiful. 

i took this squash blossom snap at patterson fruit farm (midwest must - will blog more about "fun fest" tomorrow). the hue feels warm + inviting. like a sunflower, it's happy.

same goes for marimekko's autumn fabric collection. bountiful in pattern + color, all designs are influenced by nature. 

DIY DÉCOR

buy a few yards of fabric from marimekko's concept store + whip up some harvest-inspired pillow covers or even some cute cocktail napkins (they'd make great gifts too!)
