I am in love!

I was wandering around some decorating blogs.

One of my favorite is "the inspired room". ALL of her pictures are always beautiful.

Yesterday she posted about a company called "3-fine grains"


I just about died! Seriously, the pictures/produces were to die for. Too bad I think they are pretty freaking expensive.


I loved they way these pillows look, but it wasn't till I read about they products that I REALLY fell in love. They are basically German grain sacks from the early 1800's. They woman goes and finds them (apparently they are VERY rare). They are suppose to be VERY durable (I guess...they are more than 100 years old!) made from organic hemp Cotton. They have the farmers name, and date on them. They have been passed down, and stored. CAN YOU IMAGINE THEIR STORIES?





I mean...just look that this stuff! It is so rustic...yet soft, and friendly at the same time. It would make whatever room you put it in so...warm and loving. That is why I love antiques so much. I love to think about their stories. Where did they start out. Who have they met? Who loved them? Is that odd?
I might NEVER own one of these pieces...b/c I think the pillows are over 450$...and that is a bit much. But I will covent anyone who does own them!

WOW. I'm loving those pillows. And the chair. I dont think I'd pay that much for a pillow...even if I had the money. That's CRAZY! I'm too cheap haha. I like nice things, but I'm cheap & I hate spending large amounts of money on stuff like that. Maybe I'll change my mind one day haha. loving them, I hope you get some one day!

I love them. We should try and make our own. If she can track down the fabric so can we...I wonder how much she jacks up the price after she finds the sacks
