Happy Friday, all! Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? Nick and I are going to hang out with some friends Sat night, and I’ve got a big run on Sunday morning, so I skipped my swim this morning in an attempt to recover from this week’s Booty Camp (that’s a boot camp, but just for ladies ;D) punishment.

This week’s faves are sweet, fruity and colourful… with a little dash of fun. Enjoy – and hey, if you leave a comment, make sure to let me know what your fave is out of my faves, ‘kay?

Also – remember, if you make something that fits into one of these categories, feel free to tweet me – @JessVanDen – using the hashtag #EDFridayFaves  – and link me up to your awesomeness!

Adorn

{Kimono Reincarnate}

I love the laser-cut designs by Brisbane local and my friend Melanie from Kimono Reincarnate. So sweet and delicate!

Craft

{Vertical Gardener}

How darn cute is this? Imagine a whole tiny army of these taking over a windowsill – or perhaps randomly dotted in secret places around your house. I don’t have the best track-record with greenery, so this would be a perfect fit for my terribly laissez faire gardening style.

Style

{Alice Nightingale}

Another Brisbane local – and a brand I always keep my eye on – Alice Nightingale – has released a gorgeous fruit-inspired summer swimwear range this year. This retro pineapple two-piece is my fave – so fresh and fun!

Food

{Stylepot}

Peach and elderflower sorbet with lemon mascarpone cream. It also has Moscato in it. Do I really need to say more? I WILL be making this.

I think it would be very hard to damage this gorgeous packaging from Amelia Rope Chocolates. It’s so darn pretty! But who am I kidding, right? If it keeps me from my chocolate, it’s not going to last long…

Art

{Wallpaper by Jon Burgerman via Freshhome}

You’ve probably seen this before – it’s been around for a few years now. But I’ve always thought it was a fab idea – wallpaper you can colour in? Brilliant.

{Ghislaine Viñas Interior Design via domosfera}

How awesome is this? Cloud-shaped neon lights for the bathroom. It looks so incredibly plain, but with the addition of those lights, the room takes on a big dash of… yes, I’m going to say it… whimsy.

Photography

{Sweet Paul Magazine}

Truly gorgeous. I haven’t had a chance to read the current edition of Sweet Paul yet, but it’s on my list.

Printable

{Minted Strawberry}

After Christmas and New Years, there are often people in our lives who deserve thanks. So, here are some printable cards to let you do just that.

Inspire

{Yellow Button Studio}

Many days when I wake up, I most certainly do NOT feel as though I can move mountains. I can barely move myself out of my comfy bed! But really, I know – deep down – that I can. I was raised to believe (thanks Mum and Dad!) that I can do anything I put my mind to, and the Universe would get out of my way – or possibly even help me. Perhaps you need a reminder that you can, too?

Have a fab weekend, all – I’m off to do an 11k (!!!) run on Sunday morning – the furthest I’ve ever run. My only goal is to finish – and hopefully to run the whole way. Wish me luck!

{And if you’re in Brisbane, and feel like a challenge, it’s the Resolution Run at the Botanic Gardens, I think they still have a few spots left.}
