I know there hasn’t been a favorite friday for a couple of weeks but I’m making it up today by showing off some really unique things that I love. My friend Aimee showed me an etsy shop this week that is VERY cool and you should take a look at. The shop is by paperedge and she makes these BEAUTIFUL silhouttes that you can by as prints on etsy. You can also have a custom one made of your child. How cool is that?

I also found this darling etsy shop this week from an artist called greentrikepress. I’m really impressed by her book making work. It’s unique, practical, and beautiful all at once. Check out the darling stitching on this beauty!

My next is a dresser from Pier 1 Imports. While I’m a modern girl at heart, I really love the mixing and matching of things that feel old and traditional with things that are clean and modern. This would definately be a piece I would add into my home for character and warmth. It’s called the Alani 2-Door Chest. I like how feminine it is.

Okay, next up is maybe a little ridiculous to add to the favorite 5, but it’s been on my mind this last week so it must go on! Number four on the list today is the fabulous Airstream. The link will take you to the DWR 2009 airstream. Um, I’m not posting the price tag here.

It is has been on my mind because our next door neighbor (I will name him intellectual-fix-it-guy) has been working on an old airstream for the past several months. And with summer here, it’s hard not imagine all the adventures to be had in that thing:). Getting an older Airstream (apparently) is quite a deal and won’t cause you to commit a bank robbery like the brand new version.

Okay, the final favorite 5 may be a cliche at this point (I’ve seen it on SO many blogs for the giveaway), but I can’t help it. My new Madsen bike is the belle of the ball in our family. Yesterday, I even rode it in the rain to pick up Siri from a playdate. In all it’s light blue glory, I’m more than ever impressed with the design. As far as I’m concerned, it’s the Eames chair of bikes for mom’s and I’m SO happy to own one.

And that is the end of Favorite Friday for me this week! I had originally planned camping with my family this weekend, but the rain put a stop to it:(. So now I’m working on the contingency plan…tents in the living room and hot dogs via microwave anyone?
