National Stationery Show prep

It has been very busy here getting ready for the National Stationery show. I swear, the time just goes by all year and then bam, the show is here.

Over the next 4 weeks I have seven new letterpress notecards debuting, 3 new stamp sets of Arctic Animals, Paris, and Safari scenes, tea towels, wrapping paper, and if it can get done, wallpaper. Yes, finally, wallpaper. I had to surrender yesterday and say, it will all come together. For those of you who have not yet done a trade show, it is very important to remember you cannot get every thing in your mind done. But, you can get most of it done if you stay calm and enjoy the ride. I just keep repeating it is what it is.

Above is a sneak peek of my new fox.

SHIM + SONS

I recently ordered a lovely linen mousepad from SHIM + SONS and the package was so gorgeous. Glassine bag, red candy, washi tape, and very sweet tags to detail the work. Now, I finally have a well designed mouse pad!

Scout Regalia

Los Angeles based duo, Scout Regalia, is a multitasking design studio focusing on design and fabrication of space, furniture, home products, graphic identities, material processes, and sustainable living. And, they have won my heart. I love the SR Outdoor Table Set made of enameled aluminum and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified redwood.There are 210 aluminum colors to choose from so you can really customize the table.

Then, there is the SR Patio Garden Kit (DIY) including everything you need to construct a patio friendly garden of various sizes and lengths. The SR Patio Garden Kit (DIY) comes with powder coated heavy gauge steel brackets and a drainage textile made of 40% post industrial recycled content to help drain soil. Brackets are locally manufactured in Los Angeles and designed to minimize waste and maximize material. Also available fully assembled: SR Patio Garden

SR is dedicated to supporting local fabricators, and aspires to embody innovation, discipline, and inquisitiveness in all the work that is produced. Created by Benjamin Luddy and Makoto Mizutani.

Time to start that garden!!!
