I adore all the things in this shop ...

I always love linen...and add that with simple type, I'm bound to like! :]

type designer

I came across the Flickr account of the guy who designed Feel Script + discovered some of his other work ...
 

He has some serious talent!  I love his work. 

i *heart* letterpress type

In letterpress you can either use old school type or get plates made of essentially any design you want.  While I plan on using mostly plates, I knew I wanted to use type as well.  There's just something about it I love ...

I found this great sans serif on Ebay + just love it.  You'll be seeing a lot of it from me. :]

Shop to be updated with my first round of letterpress stuff within a week or so!

lamps

Here are two lamps I'm loving + will likely buy ...
One for my work space + the other for our guest room.  Love them!

american eagle

Its 90-100 degrees [!] here which has kept us indoors most of that last few days.  Today we ventured to the mall so Ike could run around + blow off some steam.   We walked by American Eagle + a few things caught my eye so we wandered on in ...

I've never been in that store but admittedly there were a few cute things.  I love my long cardigans, so I think I'll keep my eye their cute one + scoop it up once it goes on sale. 

very hush hush

How cute is this little shop + gallery that operates out of a little Airstream trailer ...
Too bad their in Calgary, Canada, otherwise I'd definitely visit!

muscari

I just love the work + photography of this wedding accessory designer + Etsy shop ...
The details, creativity + craftsmanship looks incredible.

Hope you had a good weekend!  I've recovered from my over stimulation + have had chance to go back + enjoy a bunch of blog posts.

dc flea + antiques

I went to the big DC flea + antique show yesterday + came away with a bunch of goodies.  My little finds are my favorite ...

Wood letterpress type + vintage ribbon.  I think I might go back tonight before the show ends to see if I can score any more goodies.  The DC flea will definitely be an annual outing for us! 

over stimulated

I feel like this week in particular there were soo many pretty things in blogland.  It was to the point where I was over stimulated + couldn't quite appreciate it all [is that strange or does that happen to you?].  So, today, I'm taking a blog break + just leaving you with these peaceful + pretty interior shots ...
Aren't those beams fabulous?  And there's my dream chair.  White always seems to calm me. 

Happy weekend!

i *heart* a good script font

I seriously find a lot of joy when finding a great font -- especially a good sans serif or script  ...I've been eyeing these two, Feel Script + Sudestada, for quite some time.  And today the lovely Jane reminded me how much I love that Studestada + I went ahead and bought it.  It will be perfect for some wedding projects I'm working on among a few other things.  Yay for pretty fonts!
