Office Letterpress Print.
This limited edition Office Letterpress print was created specifically for EightHourDay’s fifth anniversary. I’m a huge fan of both the company’s work and their philosophy. Oh, and an office supply junkie. And a fan of yellow. Looks like it’s just meant to be!

Pravina Studio.
These purses and handbags from Pravina Studio have my name written all over them! Well not really, that would just be weird. I love the clean, modern lines and textiles Diana uses to create her one of a kind handmade bags. And being a museum curator herself, she definitely knows a thing or two about meticulous attention to detail.

For the Birds.
For the Birds might at first glance appear to be a kicky installation, but nope, they’re actual bird houses. A collaborative effort from San Francisco artists Luke Bartels and Jeff Canham combining craftsmanship and humor, this seedy pun intended village is comprised of eleven bird businesses such as The Condor Club Peep Show, Night Owls Bar and Pigeon Hole Motel. A little posh for the aviation nation in my neighborhood, but so clever. {via Kitsune Noir}

Shabby Apple’s Bridesmaid Collection.
Shabby Apple, whom I adore, recently launched their bridesmaid collection. Every single dress is handmade to order down to the details. The silhouettes are flattering to most body types, there’s a huge range of sizes and they’re affordable. Win, win, win. And do chic you don’t even need the excuse of a wedding to add one to your wardrobe!
