I have a confession. One of (many) nicknames that my friends call me is 'Grammar Nazi'. Something which I at times was ashamed of but am now so grateful that my parents and namely my paternal grandmother (who is still with us, living alone, driving and quick witted at a ripe young age of 87) instilled in me and my siblings. Or rather drilled into us.
I am forever correcting people's "Emma and I"'s etc. Incorrect tenses really drive me up the wall. Oh and do not even start me on 'brought' and 'bought' - how do people not know these things?!!!
Anyhow - I digress...this week's Tuesday's Object of Desire are these charming prints from etsy seller Every Eskimo. I would love to have a library one day, and I would love to have these adorning the walls of said library. These gorgeous (oak?) frames had me at hello also.
But alas at the moment what is above and beside my desk (which is housed in the kitchen/living area of the cottage - no seperate study for moi!) are windows - which isn't a bad thing, they overlook the garden so it is quite nice. I just get a bit jealous when I see beautiful inspiration boards and displays sitting proudly above peoples desks.
Every Eskimo has some great vintage finds other than these gems (which have sold, of course). Check it out - the vintage section of etsy chews up the majority of my internet download these days!
