i spy!

5 things that have caught my eye this week:

1 // sap bucket collection via hatch creative. i mentioned during my first "hello neighbor" post that i'm really digging a good vintage collection. and i think i've landed on collecting sap buckets! i love all the fantastic colors and excuses for fresh flowers!!!  they also remind me of sweet memories of new england (and wade's love of maple syrup).

2 // vintage coffee can tiered tray DIY via brooklyn limestone. i've been looking for a cute way to store teas and all the coffee essentials. this is an absolute must!

3 // diascia hybrid via proven winners. the summer sun has taken a toll on our container garden leaving us with several empty pots. these whimsical flowering plants adorned the tables at mike and nicole's wedding over the weekend. excited to find out that they are hardy and "maintenance free", it's time to plant something new, don't you think?

4 // thai red curry soup via the culinary chronicles. there's nothing quite like a summer head cold! wah wah. it's way too lovely outside to be inside recouping. so i'm hoping a hot bowl of thai red curry soup will do the trick. of course - i don't want just any ol' bowl of red curry soup. i want a perfect recreation of the red curry soup at thai phooket (our fav thai restaurant in town)! time to explore a few recipes and create a perfect match.

5 // camping inspiration via scout's honor co. wade and i are planning a camping trip to celebrate our 30th birthdays (my big 3-0 is this saturday and wade's is the 27th). i've been scouring the web for a few fun ideas and stumbled upon this mini collection via scout's honor co. yes, please! based in vermont, their design lends itself to vintage new england. i'll have one of everything please!

happy wednesday. xo.
