Let’s be honest, there’s aren’t exactly a lot of homages to Pittsburgh out there. At least not gorgeous ones like this Pittsburgh print from JHill Designs. I would have paid full price (I snatched up the medium), but this bad boy is on sale for 20% off through the end of the day in honor of the Steelers beating the crap out of the Cardinals in the Super Bowl last Sunday! Yay. Now I’m homesick.
I waited. And then waited some more. And now that February is here I’ve officially jumped on the V-Day bandwagon.
Is it a Hallmark holiday? Yes.
Does it make singles feel crappy? Yes.
Is there tons of cute stuff everywhere? Yes.
This year that last one won out. Take a look at all the pretties out there!
Super duper sweet personalized recipe cards for you or your BFF for Valentine’s Day! Love that vintage type and the layout.

Posted In kitchen, paper goodsSweet Kimberly of Ruthie Designs emailed to let me know about her newly opened Etsy shop. Her illustration gamut ranges from creepy-cool to stunningly beautiful and are available as eco-friendly prints and pillows. Even better (almost) is that they’re extremely affordable if you’re looking to add to your art collection!
A lovely little meal planner. Eight weeks or 56 days worth to be exact, each separated by a different patterned paper. For those of us who need to plan ahead in order to not eat cereal every night after work. (Guilty as charged.)
And equally lovely recipe jotters. A ring bound book with 16 hand-stamped 3″x5″ recipe cards. Use them for your favorites or your “I have to write this down now”s.

Posted In kitchen, paper goodsI’m sort of what you might call geography obsessed. I’m a big fan of state capitals and mottos are closely related enough for me to covet this poster from Two Eyeballs – The Fifty States and Their Mottos. You can also elect to go state pride specific with either a tee or block mounted piece.
On the work level one of my goals for the coming year is to become a better, more competent web designer. And I’m thinking this web design sketchbook (this year’s holiday gift from Hyper Interacktiv) would help me get majorly motivated.

Yes, yes, yet another calendar! I just can’t get my fill. This time it’s the Bryant Typography Graph wall calendar that I’m in love with. It’s the overlapping type that does it for me.

New Years is a tough holiday to decorate for in my humble opinion. But I’m absolutely loving this sweet Happy New Year bunting from hello handmade. Purchase the template and make one yourself – you still have time!
I saw this Perforated Calendar too late to include it in any of my round ups, but I had to share. If you haven’t seen it yet, this little gem has a perforated strip for each day to be torn off and discarded. I will never tire of innovative calendar design!
