Message in a Bottle

How special and amazing service is this message in a bottle letter service by Miniature Rhino? (It is currently all sold out, I hope it’ll be listed again…)

I would cry if I receive a message in a bottle like this. It’ll be such a romantic thing and/or touching thing to receive / send… I’m getting lots of ideas and inspirations :)

I love that the message will be typed by hand on a vintage book paper using a vintage typewriter. Perfect.

I will be at the letterpress studio printing all day! See you guys all tomorrow :)

Curated by UPPERCASE

My print was featured in The Storque at Etsy! I am super stoked because it was curated by Janine from UPPERCASE — one of my favorite design magazines (I am a proud subscriber since the issue 1 :)), online shops, and source of inspirations! Make sure to check out all of her picks — so good!

It’s been super crazy busy around here, I am so tired as I’m typing this, with soo much more to do ahead of me, but reading what she says: “financial risk and incredibly hard work are all worth it if you are true to yourself and your talents.” makes me believe that this is all worth it!!!

Thank you so much, Janine, for not only including my print, but also your inspiration!

cabin + cub 2010 Desk Calendar

I’m loving this 2010 desk calendar by cabin + cub — how cute! I’ve been a fan of her mixed media collages, they are just so cute and fun to look at and to get these 12 lovely images for each month in year 2010 and the reusable wooden mini easel stand sounds too good to be true!

Porcelain Tea Light Delight

I was inspired by the die cut calendars I posted this morning and I found this beautiful porcelain candle holders from Wapa Studio and had an instant gratification. I am collecting white porcelains along with many other things I collect, and so these are really calling me…

Very lovely…
