This magazine cover has been sitting on my coffee table all month (under a stack of crumpled newspapers, a faded floral headband i wear all the time, an orange comb and some takeaway menus ive been meaning to stick on the side of the fridge) the cover has slowly grown on me like a friends pet cat, I didn’t really like it that much to start with, it was ok, it didn’t offend me but it didn’t really APPEAL to me or grab me in any way either, it was just always kind of there and in your face and the more i looked at it the more interesting it started to become until now nearly 3 weeks later i actually have come to like it (the mag cover I mean AND the cat). So anyway I’ve found that I have been attracted to certain items lately (like yellow lounges, faux fur, cane armchairs and unusual pendant lights) when I have been sourcing bits and bobs for clients jobs (of which i have had 3 this month) but it was only when I went to do a cleanup of my desktop items that it dawned on me just how much this cover has subliminally influenced me. Just take a look at the below images and you will see for yourself, I have replicated parts of this cover without even realising it!

Also whilst browsing the net for basket type baskets i came across a gorgeous little blog with lots of things I like, it is called Design plus you and has lots of good reads to be had.
