favorite things . Holiday Leftovers

If you’re ready to get in to the Christmas creative spirit, check out Collage Lab! I just ordered myself a pack of their “Holiday Chock Full of Paper” packs. It’s leftovers and scraps from old paper ephemera with a holiday theme — vintage papers, cards, ribbons, etc. You never know what you’ll get, but that’s such a HUGE part of the fun. I also love these packs of red, green & black letters and numbers from old graphic designers’ text kits (before the days of computers, kids). Oh the possibilities for holiday fun!

favorite things . Chairs on Pillows

Today I’m craving these great pillows from Inhabit featuring illustrations of iconic Modernist chairs printed on throw pillows. The silhouetted graphics really capture the beauty of these chair forms. (I think they’re bringing out that perpetual architecture student in me. Sigh.) The pillows are hand-printed with all environmentally-friendly materials — completely recyclable when they’re worn out. Plus, the color. Enough said.

Experimenting with my Sketchbook Pro app again using a still-blooming azalea in my office as the guinea pig. Happy weekend! Do something creative with it!
