Orange zebra bracelet and green elephant bracelet from Furbish Design Studio.
just gorgeous type
I should really start a tumblog for this sort of thing. via a bit late.
things that I bought that I love, part 3
So, I’ve had this fascination with Pantone ever since I saw my first swatch book. I was completely blown away by this very concise set of colors that could universally be identically reproduced by any printer, anywhere in the world, and how infinite the selection felt. This was during my [...]
Keepin’ On, Carry Calm
So I understand that “Keep Calm and Carry On” is more or less over.
resolution
The last time I made a New Year’s resolution was at least a decade ago, and I think I resolved myself against New Year’s resolutions. Kind of like giving up Catholicism for Lent. Anyway, this year, inspired by unclutterer.com, nubbytwiglet.com, and my paid-off credit cards, and abetted by the Harvard [...]
impossible. cool.
I’m now learning the proper terms for things I knew by rote or instinct. I’m learning to appraise images in an entirely different way, or at least to articulate what I’m seeing differently.

Meet Evelien Lohbeck
Noteboek from Evelien Lohbeck on Vimeo. It’s rare that I come across a piece of art that I’m jealous I didn’t make, but this is definitely one of those moments. (via gizmodo) This might be a good moment to teaser the fact that the boy and I are deep in [...]
Cute!
I wish they had these when I was lil… Check out My Little Predator, My Little Alien, My Little Han Solo in Carbonite, My Little Skeletor, My Little Edward Scissorhands and way more at artist Mari Kasurinen’s website…
yes, I want this too, please
So, with this being a recession and all, I suppose imaginary shopping is the best way to go when it comes to luxury goods. In which case I’d shell out the big nonexistent bucks for one of these conjunctive lovelies: A deluxe carrying case for an ampersand, designed by Marc Johns.
gorgeous retro book design
Ohhhh…pretty! (Some favorites from the much-larger “I Can Read Movies” series by spacesick.)
