Flickr Curator: Poppytalk.

This week's flickr curator set comes from Jan of Poppytalk, one of my all time favorite blogs, and Poppytalk Handmade - curating the best of etsy. As I think I've said it, like a million times, but Jan has a great eye, and curates the best of the best of handmade goodness, so it's no surprise she has a great eye for selecting a great set of flickr faves.

Here's what Jan has to say about her flickr faves: "I've been really, really picky with my favorites and so some of them are really old - but I pick them only if I absolutely love them and will never not love them (basically), and that I love the way they all work together and strangely enough have some sort of connection to each other. It's sort of like the furniture in your house. If you really love it, even though it may be from a different period or style than other pieces you love, they all somehow work together."

I feel the same way (about the "if you really love it..." bit). Faving things that I really, really love on Flickr has taught me so much about my own aesthetic.

You fave one photo here and another there, keeping it strictly to what you LOVE, and then you can look back and have an amazing clear, concise picture of things that are "so you!"
