Smock Paper

Labels:

Smock paper sent me samples of their work, and I am blown away by their loveliness. Besides being an extremely ecologically savvy company, using vegetable and low-voc inks and an entirely wind-powered facility, they use beautiful bamboo paper. Their attention to detail is impeccable, and their line is gorgeous something I wish I could show you up close and personal. Check out their letterpress work here, and if you are in the market for pretty wedding invitations see their selection. Thanks Smock!

A Fine Day

Labels:

music

Sometimes I cannot get enough of Norwegian superstar Erlend Oye's voice. You've probably heard his voice from the band Kings of Convenience, (check out their sweet video here) and more currently the band, the whitest boy alive. Hopefully this clip will brighten your Monday as it did mine.

Ellen Raskin

Labels:

books

Here is my favorite book find of the week, "Nothing Ever Happens on my Block" by Ellen Raskin. (yay.. only $.25 again.) I dig the thin black and white line drawings with flashes of bold color throughout and the quirky story adds to its charm. Ellen was an extremely gifted artist, designer, and writer, who won many awards during her lifetime, including the Newbery Award for this cover. She stated, "I try to say one thing with my work: A book is a wonderful place to be. A book is a package, a gift package, a surprise package -- and within the wrappings is a whole new world and beyond." Love that quote.

Kid's room

Labels:

I like this kid's room from Cookie. I think what makes it appealing is the fun rug, and slightly unexpected color combinations. The ripped up Olivia book on the wall is a nice touch too. (via a new favorite blog A Merry Mishap)

This tape timer designed by Jozeph Forakis found at the MOMA Store is super clever. Pull the ring up, and as time goes by, the tape will lower and loudly ring when time is up.

Kettle Chips packaging

Labels:

I am not usually a big potato chip girl, but on occasion I will reach for my favorite kind... Kettle chips. On the Dieline, I spotted Kettle's new exotic line; what a packaging delight, and some of the flavors sound quite interesting. I don't know if they sell it anymore, but you used to be able to order the whole passport chip collection here.

I came across little people today. Slinkachu, the master mind behind the project, places real actual little people scenes all around London to leave them as he states, 'to fend for themselves.' His upcoming book, "Little People in the City - The street art of Slinkachu" can be pre-ordered here in the UK. Be sure to check out his other scenes too.

Have a Happy Weekend!

Labels:

music

I am digging the vibe of this super fun and happy music video, "Run Run" by Those Dancing Days. It reminds me of grade school when kids played horsey with jump ropes. Did you ever do that? The whole clip makes me want to jump up and have a fun weekend. It is officially summer tomorrow... ya-hoo!! Have a good one. (via here)
