Interweb Finds: Crazy quiet, an artful home & more

Is it just me, or is that one of the best quotes ever? When I happened across it recently, it was like a smack in the face—the good kind. I needed that perspective. And I’ll try to keep it in mind.

Now, let’s see what the interwebz have been up to lately…

Sometimes, all we want is a little peace and quiet. But apparently, the quietest place on earth will drive you crazy.

Love it or hate it, the ombre trend is still going strong. Check out these cool rooms that incorporate dip-dyed ombre wallpaper into their decor. I’ll take one in every color.

Recently, Shoko introduced her readers to the photography blog My Dad Takes Pictures. These film photos spanning 30-plus years illustrate the beauty, tragedy, and complexities of life.

Talk about coolest parents ever. Check out this insanely awesome Apartment Therapy house tour featuring kooky art and zany decor. (Click “Enter House Tour” to see all the photos!)

Think looks don’t matter? They shouldn’t, but this writer had to change her appearance at work to get ahead.

I just finished reading Patti Smith’s National Book Award winner Just Kids. Here are 25 lessons for creatives from her incredible true story.

Lena from Musings took these shots of adorable/hysterical horse faces.

And finally, a video featuring some incredible raw vocal talent.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

  1. Hmmm, I seem to be only living in the present and the past…but that’s nothing new =] I love that quote!

    Also, I got your snail mail!! It really made my day, and seriously, TATTLY?! I have been wanting something from there forevaaaa. And the fortune = perfection, when I make my inspiration board (a real one, on my wall, not on Pinterest), it’s going up on there, stat. Ugh snail mail is the best.

    • Yay! I’m glad it got to you safely and that you liked it! I had so much fun picking out each little thing. The store where I got it all is one of those places where you want to buy allthethings. It has serious potential to do damage to my bank account, especially come Christmastime.

  2. Oh. I kinda love how you gather all these cool stuff for us.

    I’m very appreciative… and lazy.
