Monday, April 4th, 2011
Derringer Friday is a duo of local independent designers creating rad ties and pocket squares in brightly-colored plaids, seersucker and madras. I absolutely love the combination of this last one pictured, the red cotton seersucka.
fancy birthday cards
Friday, April 1st, 2011
In conjunction with Pyramid’s 30′s Birthday Open House celebration on April 9, Pyramid Atlantic Art Center will be selling sets of letterpress birthday cards designed and printed by various members of our PA letterpress community. That’s my design above! All proceeds from the sales will go to fund Pyramid’s awesome programs and facilities! You can find pictures and links to some of the other cards here.
I printed some extra and will add those to my shop this weekend!
vintage eyeglasses
Thursday, March 31st, 2011
One of my gee whiskers cards was featured in this treasury on etsy alongside these gorgeous Vintage 50s Sapphire Blue Cat Eye Glasses. And there are even more gorgeous and unique pairs in the Vintage5osEyewear etsy shop including some men’s options too. I’m eyeing this pair, but hesitant to buy glasses via the web. Glasses are more of a try before you buy item. The shop does provide dimensions of the glasses, so I might just photoshop a few pairs on my face to see if they look good—that’s trying right?

Aled Lewis – Make Something 365
Tuesday, March 29th, 2011There are a lot of designers out there doing the ‘make something everyday’ thing. Unlike most however, Aled appears to be doing it well. These definitely got a chuckle out of me.

peru’s rebrand
Thursday, March 17th, 2011
What an impressive rebrand! The original logo is very outdated and the rebrand, designed by the Buenos Aires office of Futurebrand, has transformed Peru’s logo into a modern and unique icon—full of character. I love the application of the new identity on these postcards along with the use of the Bree font family which was specially created for Peru by TypeTogether. This new look is sure to make Peru even more appealing!
