reader collection showcase: how now design


We loved the submissions we received in response to our What Do You Collect? post off, and we think you will, too. Our first showcase of collections comes from Abbey Hendrickson of How Now Design, who also runs the blog Aesthetic Outburst. We adore her display of Fischer-Price Little People “Moms,” and also the way she displays certain collections: vintage birds on a tree branch, souvenir pressed pennies strung together in a modern wall wreath.


Visit How Now Design’s Etsy Shop — and maybe jump-start some collections of your own — here. And be sure to peruse her entire roundup on her Flickr Page. We’ll feature more reader collections in coming weeks.
