First Blueprint, then Cottage Living, and now...Domino. What is a girl to do? Well, honey, now you can't give me a hard time for archiving every single issue of Domino that has ever existed! Oh tear...

I like it a latte!


Did you know you can actually purchase a latte cup and saucer from The Beverly Hills Hotel without actually staying the night? Cute, huh? I think I'm going to fill the cupboards of my dream pink and black kitchen these little sweeties!

Rebecca Thuss

Most of you know about my obsession with Martha Stewart's work. Truth be told, I actually do know she doesn't come up with all of these wonderful ideas all by herself, but has an incredible team of people behind her who do. Can you imagine the brainstorming sessions that must go on in that place? I get all hot and bothered just thinking about it!

I just learned about Rebecca Thuss, previously a Style Director for both Martha Stewart Weddings and Blueprint (RIP). She has since joined her husband, Patrick Farrell, in their multidisciplinary photography and graphic design firm, ThussFarrell. I have inspiration journals full of her work, and so it was so exciting for me to put a name to the inspiration. So, I thought I'd leave some eye candy for you today of her work that has inspired me in the past.

Lucky me! So, I was going about my business today, and opened up a daily email I get from Daily Candy. That is where I learned about Ecofont, a brand spankin' new typeface designed by Spranq that is actually kind to the environment! What? Yep, it's true! Each letter actually uses 20% less ink, which means fewer ink cartridges end up in the trash. Download Ecofont for yourself here...lucky you!

Fresh 2009 Calendar



No, you are not having a nightmare about your college Organic Chemistry class! To start off the New Year, I wanted to share a great printable calendar I discovered a few years ago in the now out of print Blueprint Magazine (tear!). All it takes is card stock, careful cutting, and some tacky glue (don't make the same mistake I did by using super-glue...you'll glue your fingers together, which is quite frightening). Download yours here. Happy New Year!
