Well-worn wood for the home

Love the look of incorporating a naturally-distressed wood wall or piece of furniture into the home -- gives it that lived-in, rustic homey look I crave.

Friday Find: artwork on etsy


Absolutely swooning over this abstract seascape by Vermont-based artist Amber Alexander, which I found on etsy.  Here's her complete shop, which ranges from paintings of whimsical animals, people, and nature, to landscapes like the one above.
