Found Type: Mermaid Oyster Bar

Posted on November 23, 2010 by Hijiri

Great hand-lettering of the Mermaid Inn (Oyster Bar) chalkboard in West Village. Caught my eye. Sounds good, too, right? :)

((It was a night time, sorry for the dark and blurry photos…))

I LOVE their logo from the second I saw it, designed by the amazing Louise Fili. This is the store sign of the Oyster Bar.

and I love their matches, too. I usually take home few to light candles at home :)

and their food? SO GOOD!! There, it completes everything.

Off to printing! See you tomorrow. xo Hijiri

Found Type: Wine Chalkboard Sign

Posted on October 27, 2010 by Hijiri

Found this great handwritten chalkboard sign in front of Blanc & Rouge — a wine shop in DUMBO. Isn’t it lovely? Love the cursive type and decorative lines. Very nice!

On the back is a “Gin made in Brooklyn” sign. This side is cool, too.

By the way, did you see the font day over at Design*Sponge yesterday? I LOVED it!!! :)
Have a great day, everyone. I’m off to printing all day today…

Passed by the galapagos art space in DUMBO, Brooklyn. (I have to go here sometime very soon, it looks so cool!)

Cool storefront letters:

Mini Goals Chalkboard

Posted on October 8, 2009 by Hijiri

I was reading this article on etsy, but I couldn’t help looking into MaryKateMcDevitt’s shop before I finish reading the article… these mini goals chalkboards are super awesome! I love the hand lettering, the design of the chalkboards and the concept so much! I need one, I can’t decide which one yet, but I thought it was such a cute way to motivate yourself with mini goals everyday. They are “mini” goals so it’s not overwhelming, which makes easier to accomplish :)
