Sometimes there is nothing more peaceful than a sunny day in the park, grass tickling your skin as you lie back and simply watch the clouds flow by. This simple act evokes so many childhood memories. It is a pastime as ancient as we are- such a simple show of appreciation of life.
Today’s post is about, yep, clouds- those fluffy conglomerations of air and water and one of nature’s most ephemeral muses. This post also highlights a few lovely photos from our Etsy friends.

Looking around for lovely puffs, I stumbled upon a fun and quirky club: the cloud appreciation society. Take a look at their manifesto, it will make you giggle, then look up and sigh….
Ok, grab your blanket… lets go find some of our own….
In case you need a little more inspiration, here’s a few more cloudy treasures…
