it’s things like these that do make me nostalgic for the emerald city, and the time that i’d spent in seattle discovering every little nook and cranny of the city finding spots for hidden treasures i once coveted as mine.  not so much anymore with this seattle design guide from design*sponge; i personally can vouch that i’ve been to most these places, and for all my hometown heroes, this is a pretty exhaustive list of all things good design, food and the like.  and for my non-seattle friends, definitely bring this list in-hand if every planning to visit the city i called home for 11 years. see the list, here. 

spool no. 72, a favorite boutique, is featuring 20% off with coupon code ‘july’ through july 11.  a few that’s going on my wishlist, i.e. might be getting between now and july 11.

fruit flies come one day
becomes interesting toys
for corn to play with
