‘Somewhere In Utah’ polaroid landscape from Ethanollie
I was browsing the papernstitch flickr group and found this great piece from Ethanollie (who runs the shop Trampoline). I am very lucky to have these gorgeous polaroid collages in the next papernstitch exhibition (which opens March 23rd- and you can still submit your shop if you’re interested- the deadline is next week).
And then I stumbled on these two pieces…yeah! Great earthy tones, but still so fun and joyful. I could really use some new stationery. I haven’t written to any friends in a while, and who wouldn’t love a little note complete with mini horses.
Dala Horse Stationery Set from Papersparrow and Hair Clip – cherry blossom from Modern Bean
I am going to wrap it up this week, and to kick- start the weekend, here are my favorite posts from the week..
-New shop alert…The Busy Beaver (vintage furniture remixed)
-Jena from Modish opens a new resource for Crafty Business Types
-Room by Room- the Modern Bathroom
One of my favorite resources for books is a site called Book by its Cover, which is how I found out about this book, which I am now of course dying to get my hands on. But looking at books online will just never be the same as actually holding it in your hands and turning the pages (can you tell theat I am not a big fan of the Kindles?). Case and point…Last weekend, Jeff and I went to a BIG book sale and snagged about 30 hardcover books for $10! We wound up with a little bit of everything (mostly old art and design books, a couple on color theory, and a craft book or two) and probably picked up some books that we never would have thought to buy before, but when someone tells you that you can shove as many books into a brown paper bag as possible for $10, you accept the challenge. Right?
I spent a good amount of time scouring the art section and then meandered around looking for cool covers. Here’s a couple that I found above. I know they aren’t the greatest pictures, but I guess I can’t expect much from a camera phone. Have a cool pattern to share from one of your books? Leave the link in the comments. I would love to check em out.
