OH MY GOD

Gold.Bunny.Ring. Too FUCKING cute.

This is probably one of the most practical items you can own:

I love how this subversive take on brass knuckles says, 'I love the environment so much, I'm going to knock your teeth out in order to save it.'

I also LOVE the awkward acid wash photo. I think the designer is trying to show us that totally cool Brooklyn hipsters wear his totally awesome cool shit!

Thanks J, for bringing these lovely items to my attention.

Caitlin Mociun makes a dress out of potatoes.

It is well documented that I love Mociun, and as an extension of that, I also heart Caitlin Mociun.

Her new tutorial on Refinery29 'Catilin Mociun Turns a Cheapy Dress Into a Printed Masterpiece Using... Potatoes!' makes me want to race out the door, pick up hundreds and hundreds of potatoes, and print the shit out of this Summer of Unemployment.

There's a new Decorative Plate up in this mother.

Welcome, Georgia Souvenir Plate, to the Lindsay Crammond Wall of Plates!

I think you will like it here.

Cats+Moccasins

Shown above are the top 2/3 entries of my 'Most Favorite Things in this World' list.

(Not pictured: Denim)

Cut-it-out !

I think these collections by Yelena Konovalova are AWESOME. I thought of you, Linzo, because of the Mociun jean+t-shirt combo. I wore the black and white tights, up top, in Brooklyn, and later to my chagrin (Thanks digital cameras!!!), I found that they DO NOT flatter my figure. However, I think they would look good on a 5'6'' ish blonde with a bob and skinny legs?

I'm listening to Stevie Nicks as I'm writing this post. Booyah!!

I would wear these to the Dentist...

Linzo, how about some flats to match your Tom's wintermint toothpaste?

Cute Headboard Idea

I am currently sans headboard, letting my pillows slouch against the wall like a trash-princess, and I've been thinking about cute headboard ideas. I want to make my own soonish, or as soon as I nest. I came across this embroidered idea posted on our bff blog, Design Sponge.

**In case you are wondering, that is a chain stitch, which is a very simple and fast-paced stitch with darling results.

Fauna & Fashion

Yesterday, while conducting a routine internet search for
'Cats in Victorian Costume,'

I stumbled across two quite spectacular etsy sites.

With great fondness, I present Grand Ole Bestiary:

Be warned: 'These prints are actual, bona fide, photographs exposed with light on a digital enlarger and developed on Kodak archival photographic paper.'

The 'Bunny Tea Party' is OBV my favorite, with 'The Catsby Twins' as a close second.


And, for your consideration, Berkley Illustration!





In my estimation, there ain't nothing better than a lady goose sporting a crocheted collar tied with a bow. Nothing.

It's nice to receive flowers.

On Saturday, a few students gave me flowers to mark my last day of teaching. It was all quite lovely until I realized that, as a card-carrying member of the 'I'm Not an Adult Yet' club, I had nowhere to put them. Despite squirreling away multiples of just about every other useless decorative item in this house, I. DON'T. OWN. ONE. SINGLE. VASE.

4/4 containers pictured above are regularly used for drinking, pouring, or water containment of some sort. Huzzah for being a 25 year old with way too much shit!

Why does this exist?

Nobody needs to wear a hood at the beach.

Unemployment is the Pits.

I enjoy the consumption of goods.
However, without steady employment, such things are unacceptable.

Exhibit A:

I would like to purchase this killer Mociun organic cotton tank.
It is priced, on sale at Creatures of Comfort, at a mere $40.
However, there is no $40 bill in my pocket. I'm not a thousandaire.

Insert Gigantic Whiny & Dejected Face Here

I'm considering prostitution as a forthcoming career move.

Dear Repetto Navy Leather Ballet Flat,

Do you want to go to prom with me? I'll let you get to second base.

There is nary a shoe more perfect than this.

Built by Wendy Suprise!

My boy rules. Thanks Jesse!! <3 Now I will mos def be wearing this dress on the pier (sans ice cream; its dry clean only...but on the Ferris wheel!)

My love affair with Dover Publications will never cease.

Rachel, might this be something you're interested in?

I am wholly uncomfortable with how adorable these are.

The very best thing about this?
They are commissioned drawings of pets.

That is:

I, MYSELF, LINDSAY ELIZABETH CRAMMOND, COULD PAY JUST A MEASLY PITTANCE TO HAVE MY DARLING DOLLFACES FOREVER PRESERVED IN PASTEL DAINTINESS.

Sigh.

Sarah McNeil, you rule.

The Award Ribbon called Polly

For those of you sitting in the back row, I have a feline named Polly. As such, I want nothing more than to purchase the above handmade yellow 'Polly' award ribbon, tie it around her thick little mane, and watch her prance about the house in it. And then, I would die of cuteness.

Detroit Flea Market!!!!

I got these pennants for a total of $6. The Denver one is my favorite. I need to move out west...*sigh*

Dana Lauren Goldstein takes nice photos

She photographs the youths. They have lots of energy. You can check more here.
