I love this Minimal Black Heart print by the big harumph! Made with hand-pulled linoleum cut — love the texture and interesting pattern. Makes me want to work on some linoleum prints… :)

Leanne Marshall Takes on Fashion Week from Etsy on Vimeo.

NY has been busy with Fashion Week, I saw this video Leanne Marshall Takes on Fashion Week and my thoughts are with her and all the independent designers who are doing their collections by hands with original ideas and sleepless nights. Very inspiring.

With this, I am saying hello to the (hopefully filled with sunshine) Labor day weekend :) If you are in US, have a great long weekend! It will probably be a working weekend for me… but I will also try to enjoy my quiet time before the baby comes…

See you on Tuesday! xo Hijiri

Yesterday, one of my Live What You Love prints was featured in “The Experts Agree” with bunch of other awesome prints (thank you so much!) — I liked all the prints and especially, this Good Life print caught my eye, it’s all made with linoleum and letterpress printed!

Love the typography, too! I can hang this in my kitchen… :)

Yesterday was our baby shower day! Aww it was soo fun. I want to do it again and again :P We had it here in our loft apartment with our lovely friends’ help (THANK YOU SO MUCH, Mio & Masa!!), it was nothing traditional, coed brunch party just like we wanted :)

I ordered these cute cupcake liners, baking cups and paper bags (aw, the paper bags didn’t get to use, but will be used later!) from Hey Yo Yo — great party supplies shop on etsy! I visited their shop many times prior and wanted to get each one of them, they are all just so cute and fun, makes me want to throw a party all the time!

If you are planning on even a little get together, I would suggest just looking at their shop to get an idea or purchase something fun for your special/non-special occasion :)

Photos from the shower will follow later…

Happy Type Friday! xo Hijiri

Came across these vintage inspired radio wire place card holders. Very simple, but unique and cute, don’t you think? I have so many little papers around me all the time, this might solve it beautifully…

Also, cute for a party, too! (via Sugarpush Vintage)

Happy Monday :) Hope you had a great weekend… I wanted to start the week with these cute bunch of rainbow love by KraKra Craft — makes me happy just looking at them! <3

It says “If you wish, hearts can be attached on a cotton string to dangle around or be assembled into mobile or alike.” — this will be the cutest little decoration for my little one…

I’m on my 3rd trimester already (time flies soo fast!) it’s true I look at baby stuff more and more now… :) This wooden dachshund rolling toy is just too cute not to post. Love the simple design.

Check out more handmade eco-friendly wooden toys from Buddy and JoJo.

and how cute are these baby cards?! Love <3

Very inspiring for my next card line, too… :) Happy Friday! xo Hijiri
