7th House on the Left

We’re kicking off this week with a giveaway from National Geographic’s NOVICA. Before getting an email from them seeing if we were interested in doing a giveaway, we had never heard of NOVICA. After learning more about them, the products and their overall mission, we’re really glad we did. Their mission is to give artists and artisans around the world a global platform to express their artistic talents and gain exposure to consumers. Their website is filled with stories about artists from around the world who’s livelihood has been changed from being able to have their pieces sold with NOVICA. They offer a ton of interesting and unique things for the home as well as jewelry and apparel. Each item is tagged with an “artisan story card” so you can learn more about where exactly that item came from and who made it. Pretty neat, huh?

happyweekend HAPPY WEEKEND

So, today is a very happy day. Not only because it’s Friday but because the rain has stopped – for a few days at least – and our lumber for the carport ceiling is being delivered early this evening. So, can you guess what we’re doing this weekend? Yep, Ash and I’ve got a date with 62 planks, wood stain and a nail gun.

What do your weekend plans look like? Whatever you’re up to, we hope you have a Happy Father’s Day and, of course, a happy weekend.

HAPPY CAMPER

I’m not much of a camping person. I really wish I was, but it just isn’t in my blood. I’ve been camping once in my life and that trip ended with a severe thunderstorm with lots – and lots – of lightning…. while in a pup tent. The next morning, we high-tailed it out of there and drove to the nearest restaurant with running water, clean bathrooms and food made with electricity.

That being said, I kind of wish I was a camper now that Anthropologie has come out with a bunch a new, and oh so stylish, camping gear…

I think my favorites would have to be the sleeping bag (why didn’t they make ones like that when I was a kid?!) and the Campfire Waffle Iron (genius!). So, while I might not be galavanting off into the wilderness, I think some of these things would be really great for an outdoor party. We’re hoping to have an outdoor bon-fire party in the fall but my head is already spinning with ideas. Also, I need an excuse to buy a sleeping bag ; )

This post was not sponsored by Anthropologie. I just have a slight obsession with things I clearly have no use for.
