This past week flew by in a complete blur or maybe it’s just that one day seems to blend into the other. If it weren’t for putting together the Tuesday 10 every week, I’m not sure I’d have a sense of the day or week. While I hope you enjoy my weekly collection of links from around the web, know that I do this for me, more than you! 😉
Sometimes the most beautiful things are those that are less than perfect. There’s probably a life lesson in that statement. But I’ll save that for another day. Today I’d like to focus on burl wood, which is just that kind of thing. The intriguing, kaleidoscopic swirls are actually due to a mutation that causes an outgrowth of a tree trunk after some form of stress. The resulting marble like effect is striking while adding a beautiful depth and sense of calm to a space. Burl wood is the perfect mix of rustic vibes and modern elegance and I can’t get enough. I’ve rounded up some of my favourite burl wood accents below.
And just like that Easter has come and gone. I hope you had a restful weekend sprinkled with moments of joy. I actually celebrated my birthday this weekend and while it was definitely a new experience to celebrate it alone, there was a lot of goodness in it too. Namely, no pressure to make plans. I love a good party and love planning them too – just not when I’m the focus. So every year the thought of planning something for my birthday often leaves me paralyzed. This year that pressure was gone. And it was lovely.
