Things I Love Thursday

This darling sewing room adornment by the ever so talented Paper Sparrow. I really want to do something like this is my own craft room, though I'm admittedly not much of a sewer (yet!)

I want a hammock to lounge and read in SO badly... I'm especially in love with the beautiful hand woven versions from Hamanica

I think these delicious looking cake batter pancakes from How Sweet It Is would be an excellent birthday morning treat! I think I might make some for my upcoming special day...

This crocheted doily dress featured on Bridal Snob is BEYOND adorable... I'm so in love with it, it makes me want to get married all over again! Maybe a vow renewal in the future?

I feel like I may well be the last blogger alive without an instant camera, and I feel a serious need to remedy that! Isn't this 70's Rainbow SX-70 Instant Land camera at WellWudJaLookAtThat a beauty?

I am absolutely jumping on the bandwagon with all things Mason jars, and I adore this easy peasey DIY Tinted Rainbow Mason Jar tutorial over at Momtastic. I can't wait to try it out!

I am swooning over this little vintage kitchen with is a part of Sugar Mama's Bake Shop. It is my new inspiration for my own kitchen- I love the touch of hanging the cute aprons up like that! (picture taken by  Thompson Family)

My obsession with 50's day dresses shows no signs of receding, and this week, I fell in love with this blue little beauty at Shop REINVINTAGE.

Pretty sure this may be one of the cutest things ever. I can't get over how precious they are!

Are these crochet pansies at Ravelry the cutest darn thing ever, or what? I would love to learn how to crochet so I can make bouquets of these! If you already can crochet and want to make these, click the link! It's a free pattern :)

I am DYING for this gal's hair! Isn't she absolutely stunning? I've never seen blue hair done better. Her blog, Cotton Candy Dreams is darling. Check it out!

If you don't feel like weeping, DON'T watch this video. It depicts a 29 deaf woman hearing her voice through cochlear implant for the very first time. It is so sweet and so touching! Science is AMAZING.

This is my favorite video ever- I watch it whenever I'm feeling blue- maybe it will help you too!
