felt bag

(image: pincorporated)
I have a soft spot for felt, especially industrial felt bags. There is something so cold, yet warm about felt. It’s itchy but cozy at the same time maybe.
Pincorporated is a beautiful shop with lots of things I’d like to own, but this bag is one of my favorites. I like the little cross […]

take five: keara, owner of oak boston

Oak is full of handmade items that you need to own, like, yesterday. For example, these pebble earrings, $25.

fashion is art: owl jumper

(image: stars and infinite darkness)

Light grey only, sizes small to large. $105

Runs slightly big, 30″ long. From Gentle Fawn. Only […]
