fresh finds for hip spaces

I wrote about the illustrator of this lovely little book called The Cocktail over at Real Simple yesterday (link here). Her name is Kat Macleod and she has a few pillowcases and a pretty handkerchief for sale at Third Drawer Down right now.

I must confess, I purchased the book soley for the illustrations… Although the boozy concoctions look truly delicious. Some of the illustrations are so nice that I’m almost tempted to remove and frame them. But then there is this whole uncomfortable feeling I have about destroying a perfectly lovely book… So for now I will display the book on a shelf in my kitchen.

I know, I saw that same book at Anthropologie a couple of weeks back and was astounded! I did some research and it appears she’s been all over the place with folks raving left and right. I’m happy to have added to the raves- she’s fantastically clever.

I bought this book a while ago for the illustrations too. I’m almost scared of getting the book out for a girly cocktail night in case someone spills something on it!

I just saw some illustrations from inside that book on another blog… they are lovely! Might have to purchase it to see all of them!
