Gocco love

Many things inspired me to purchase a Gocco press, including the last post of the beautiful sugarloop prints. So finally, this weekend I received mine! Needless to say, I have been printing up a storm this weekend. Printing some lovely wedding invitations I've been working on for my cousin.



little lovelies

I first saw Sugarloop prints on my swap partner, Kristen's blog, and I think they are quite beautiful. You can buy Sugarloop prints here at etsy and she has a lovely blog here.

Dress up time!

I love these shots by Elisabeth Dunker, the quirky little illustrations over the shots are very lovely. Check out her other great kids photographs here on Lula.

Cuba

I've always had a fascination with Cuba. Perhaps, it is because I can't go there, or its because of the documentary Bueno Vista Social Club, the cool vintage cars they drive, or this book or that book, or these great works by Marion Deuchars.


"Don't you think daisies are the friendliest flower?"

This last weekend, I planted daisies in a pot outside my front door.
They make me happy.

Studio Luxe

I am working on designing my studio/office, it is lots of fun. Have any great ideas/inspiration? I'd love to see! For starters, I got this white t chair from west elm, it is surprisingly comfortable.



I like the idea of having some type of I don't know what you call it, command center? There has to be a better name... this one is from pb.



a little modernity for your palette

Owen + Vokes creates such amazing modern architectural works. I am always impressed and intrigued by such talented designers and architects from the land down under, because they have a certain style + grace + edgy sensibility that is hard to sum up in words. Although so called 'modern architectural style' has evolved over the years, to me, modern design feels clean, functional, fresh + hip.
