Gallery Wall






We’ve been leaning our photos up against the wall for years–we actually really liked all the layers we could make. But conscious of forthcoming little hands (which could pull down these stacked photos) we decided to actually hang the images, and start a gallery wall.

We didn’t want to create an endless number of holes, so we grouped the frames on the floor first, and then used paper cut-outs to see how the assembly would look once hung. It wasn’t as much work as you might fear, and I think it turned out pretty well–with no extra holes!

Nautical, Dude!

After the earlier whale excitement, I was looking around and found this stuff. I think it’s great.

 And speaking of cool T-shirts, this Montauk-inspired company, Local Knit, makes me look forward to another trip out to the tip of Long Island!

Happy Mother’s Day weekend!

Here are some links and news we wanted to share:

Check out our beautiful mothers, on baby mine.
And here I am at 27 weeks.

Also, a few months ago, I edited a revised edition of a classic homesteading text–Building Country Comforts–for my publisher, and was so excited when Ashley English agreed to write a foreword. She writes about her own homesteading adventures on her blog, Small Measure, and contributes a weekly column on Design*Sponge. We worked together just before she had her baby boy, Huxley. If you have some land and are interested in the nuts-and-bolts of homesteading, she’s hosting a giveaway on her site through Monday.

And Aron and I were so excited to see Hither & Thither honored as a top travel site on Babble! (Thanks so much to whomever nominated us!) As always, our travelogues are linked the column to the right.
Happy Mother’s Day!
Have a good weekend!
