One side was a deep red with a white dotted scallop print and the other, a dark navy with a geometric, star-like pattern. Figuring they were from one of her many trips to Japan, I was thrilled to hear they were a gift from my cousin who picked them up at her mom/my aunt Elizabeth's spa. (hope I didn't lose you there)
So this past January, while on an uber-relaxing-spa-bday-vaca in Santa Fe, I made sure to pick up a set for myself at Ten Thousand Wave's boutique before I left.
Who knew that this one little pattern could have lead to an all out obsession with scallop print??
they no longer had red/navy so I got purple/green.. (which I'm more than ok with)

I've scoured the internet, looking for a similar dotted scallop/wave pattern with no luck.
Dotted or not, I love all these:
marine swallows fabric
red wave necklace by tatsuko
scallop earrings by avery winslow
scallop silkscreens..
adorable peacock notecards by anemone letterpress
cute combo
an old Fresh soap box on my shelf :)
For the longest time, I had plans for the re-design of my site to heavily incorporate this dotted scallop pattern but alas, when on the screen, it makes me a little dizzy. I'm still trying to figure out a way around it, maybe fuzzing/blurring it out a little? Then again, the crispness and simplicity is what ultimately drew me in...
