Paper Sparrow and their shop Cottage Industry

Oh, my -- the Cottage Boutique at INfusion Tea, in Orlando, FL is just darling. I think there are multiple artists here so there should be some really great stuff to look at if you are nearby. The light colors of the wood frames, the cool art, and the dusty blue walls all compliment each other so well. I love it!
