Collection: The Owls Are Not What They Seem by Quiet Paws

All over the web, seekers of beauty and whimsy aggregate their favorite whatevers into collections that inspire. I found some of my own items nestled within these collections, and I thought I'd share them with you.

The most unexpected treasure I came across was this Twin Peaks themed assemblage by Quiet Paws. Unlike the Star Wars collection below, only one of these items specifically refers to the show, and yet together, these items represent it perfectly.
Tracey included in her post one of her favorite quotations by Agent Dale Cooper, and it's one of my favorites, too: "Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee."

So, grab yourself some coffee, a slice of pie, or some donuts, and look through these wonderful collections of little presents you can give yourself (or someone else). Enjoy!

The Portland Aerial Tram recently celebrated its 5th year, just in time for a couple of tram shots in my 36 Views of South Waterfront series. This one, #30, is from the waiting area, and #28 was taken from inside the tram itself (as was #27 from the last post).
This series was also featured on the:
How 'bout that? Also, I just learned, the two tram cars are named Walt and Jean. How 'bout that?
Only six more photographs until the series is complete. Click on any photo above for a slide show.

Well, I did it! My serene photo won the Captivus Living photo challenge. Thanks for voting for me!

Chic & Green is a blog of "indie shopping style and all things lovely" - an apt subtitle, indeed. Karley of Loubird Handmade has a keen eye for classy items out there in the handmade and vintage world.

One Sydney Road
Piper Toth shares indie finds on her website, One Sydney Road. This post, on which I find a photo that can never be retaken (the churchyard in question has rebuilt their fence), Piper's modern taste in design shines through.
