I think you'll be hard-pressed to find any ornaments that are much cuter than the ones in the Cuore Etsy shop. Swoon!

I am taking the weekend off, but I'll be back Monday!

I love the nature inspired work in the Aliette Etsy shop. The delicate color palettes with their subdued hues really add to the lovely simplicity of the pieces. Prints of all the pieces are available here.



The holiday ornaments in the Peppersprout Etsy Shop are divine! At first glance they appear to be normal snowflakes, but look closer and animal silhouettes- deer, birds, even foxes and polar bears appear! The trivets are gorgeous too!

Three of a Kind opens on November 20th, at Lab X Gallery in Australia with pieces by three wonderful Australian artists:
Beci Orpin, Madeline Stammer, and Irene Grishin-Selzer of Iggy and LouLou. This is one of those International shows that I am super sad to be missing :(


Amanda Spicer is a self-taught Canadian artist whose work has recently caught my eye. Her paintings have a way of pulling you in with their initial innocent narratives, but there is more than meets the eye. From her website: "Drawing inspiration from Tarot, Fairy tales, nightmares and mysteries, mixed with a light dose of humour,The narrative illustrations that she creates have come from a far distant corner of the artists imagination. Where they are going, is open to your interpretation."
Visit Amanda's website here, and her shop (where prints are on sale!) here.



There's a great selection of limited edition prints in the Poster Child Prints online shop. Pieces from artists like Friends With You, Amanda Visell, Dalek, and lots more.


The preview pieces for the new show at Rotofugi look awesome!

I hate watching media content on my iphone and having to hold it- but the new (and super cute) product iBend does that for you- and it's so slim it also fits in your pocket!
The two designs by Meomi are especially awesome!


'Natural Wonders'
Jeremy Lynch, Kevin E. Taylor, James Roper
Friday, November 13th, 7-10pm
From the Press Release:
LeBasse Projects warmly welcomes Jeremy Asher Lynch, James Roper and Kevin E. Taylor to the gallery for a three person show of new work. Though very different in their approach all three artists bring us their outlook on the changing environment and world around us.
UK based James Roper's work explores a variety of subjects including the restraint and release of energy found within complex structures such as the human body. Florida native Jeremy Asher Lynch's mixed media works often juxtapose both illustrative and abstract techniques while creating beautiful paintings which often carry a darker subtext. Kevin E. Taylor comes to the gallery from San Francisco where he has been working on a series of paintings that force the viewer to re-examine the relationship between man and the natural world around him.


I'm also an illustrator, and make super-cute products with my mom at our company, Bored Inc.
Thanks so much for visiting, have a great day!
