Mad for Apples and Pears

I have just realised lately I have a thing for apples and pears??

It's funny when a trend starts happening and you're completely unaware of it.
I love these 2 fruits, they are my winter favourites, but didn't really think of them in a decorative sense until recently.

First it started with these wire lanterns from Mozi. So cute aren't they?
You may remember them on a book shelf recently when I blogged about my home library.

Then I bought these adorable fabric baskets from The Spotted Barn.

Now I have decided to make some myself!!! Which is really exciting, I will keep you posted on my progress here as I want to design my own fabric for some.
Patterns from retro mama.

I did a quick search on Etsy and found these other little wonders. I am thinking I need those fruit memo notes.


What's your new unintentional love at the moment?

There is just something about them isn't there. I also find myself drawing to fabrics, stamps and cards of apples and pears. I love these ones too: http://www.madeit.com.au/detail.asp?id=266917 (no pun intended!)
