“Possibilities”
Daily PONDspiration [for the well-designed wallspace}…
The watercolor work of Mexican artist Geninne Zlatkis always inspires me with its whimsy and freshness. I particularly love her stylized birds. The color, the detail and the stories she evokes draws me in every time. Enjoy!
(and be sure to browse her whole etsy shop!)
Three Little Birds
I really enjoy pillows because they are a relatively inexpensive way to add a touch of great design to the common experience of sitting or resting. And, they are also easy to interchange, so they can bring freshness to a changing mood or season. I’ve been collecting images of inspired pillow designs for quite some time, and I’ve had a very difficult time narrowing them down to just these six. [Which probably means you’ll see another pillow post at some point!] Nevertheless, I really love the touches of whimsy found in each of these designs — perfect for the coming of Spring. Visit each of the designers for more stunning inspiration!

Hello & welcome! I’m Haley Montgomery, and I’m the designer and owner of Small Pond Graphics. I sometimes fancy myself a frog kisser— a documentarian coaxing poignant moments from unexpected places. This blog has evolved from those moments.
The small Pond FIELD GUIDE is part diary, part sketchbook, and part wish list – an archive of ordinary wonders. For years, this space has housed my stories – creative ideas, vintage inspiration, our forays into curious places, and the simple artifacts of quiet of conscious living. Through watercolor, photography, and illustrated tales, these pages uncover the blessing of ordinary days and the wonder found in authentic places and pursuits.
I invite you to open the boxes.
Peek into the drawers.
Rustle through the pages.
I’m honored to have you here.
