Today’s find is something fun, yet practical: self-inking rubber stamps. Stamps are a great way to personalize your letters, stationary or gift tags. I love the simplicity of Note Trunks designs. These two below are my personal favorites. I must buy one, but how can I choose? Feel free to vote in the comments section…

Alice in Wonderland is one of my all time favorite stories, and when I am looking for inspiration, I naturally draw from the things I love. I bought these great Alice inspired gift bags on etsy, and that is what really got my creative juices going for today’s post.

This theme is great for a winter wedding, but could easily be modified for anytime of year. And who says its only good for weddings? This would be awesome for a shower or dinner party too! Just imagine those adorable “drink me” tags on your cocktail glass. “Eat me” tags are also available at pinkcherrymama’s esty shop. I can just see little cupcakes adorned with those!

And for those of you who LOVE Alice in Wonderland as much as I do, be sure to check out the new movie trailer. It hits theaters and IMAX on March 5th!

How adorable is this vase? Pretty Random Objects Etsy shop is filled with these little gems. In addition to the teeny, tiny hampster planter, she also has vases in the shape of a bear, a bird and a bunny. They are all so cute! What a great gift for a baby shower (or just a sweet looking addition to your coffee table?)

Today I found beautiful notebooks and journals made of salvaged, antique wood and recycled paper. The texture is just amazing and each item is handcrafted and unique. I love the fact that no two pieces are the same. You could buy one for yourself and give another as a gift and not be concerned about them looking the same!

I am so in L-O-V-E with this scarf that I found on Etsy today! At first the price seems a smidge steep, but it is so sculptural and unique (and no doubt handmade)! Besides, I’ve paid more in the past. I think I will have to acquire this soon…
