Although I don't normally gravitate towards things that are black & white for my home, I can appreciate the simple statements that graphic prints provide. I love this numbers pouf from Land of Nod, and think it would make such a fun piece for a living room or play room. And the teapot print would make an adorable addition to a kitchen!

Also, I had a very nice time at the wedding this weekend, thanks to all who asked! It was the first wedding I was in, and I have to say...that's a lot of stress for just a few hours, huh? ;)

Today, I'm really loving the soft & feminine vibe of this product & print. That flamingo print is so soothing and has me wishing for cool, dreamy weather. I'm thinking a picnic and using these tea towels as placemats!

There's something really special about simplicity done right, and today's post definitely highlights that. I love collecting mugs, and the simple stripe of this jumbo much is perfect. I could definitely see this mug in the kitchen of the stylish lady who owns this sassy print.

I also can't help but love this color combo of teal and purple - it really makes a statement!

If you haven't seen Mark Brooks' work before, you're missing out. This collection of posters has some of my favorite works by him. I love the geometric patterns of the below poster, and the muted colors are gorgeous. And I'm sure I can't be the only one who has coveted these walnut serving boards by A Sunny Afternoon, right? What a great statement piece that would make in any kitchen!



Do you have any kitchen pieces you're coveting?

Wow, can you believe that Product & Print has been around for 50 weeks??

This week I'm all about traveling....seeing everyone's vacation photos (and this beautiful illustration), I can't help but dream of some foreign places! Of course, I would travel in style with these luggage tags (and get the matching passport cover as well!).



Where are you dreaming of traveling to?

Ever since I saw this Annual Report cover by Oliver Munday, I knew I wanted to feature it in this column. I knew that the fun, fresh colors of this iphone case would match it perfectly. You can't help but feel more cheerful looking at these colors!

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how delicious this week's Product & Print is? I just adore the type poster by Jaymie McAmmond. The type work is phenomenal, and who doesn't love a good poster about coffee? I would totally bake this chocolate espresso cake and enjoy it while sitting under the poster :)



Does anyone have any good coffee/espresso recipes they can share?

Jenny Liz Rome is such an amazing illustrator, and if you haven't seen her prints, you need to check them out. This print is definitely one of my favorites. I think the girl who's wearing this pretty pink frock. I also think I want to be that girl :)

I've been marathoning Mad Men recently, and I've been obsessed with vintage ads and the aura of that area. I love the way this week's Product & Print turned out - this illustration from the talented Two Arms Inc caught my eye immediately. I love the circus vibe of it. And how great are these mid-century basket chairs?

This week's Product & Print is a bit different...the product are these amazing business cards for Brad Gorski by Sarah Drake, and the print is the gorgeous Frontage font by Juri Zaech. I've been watching a lot of Mad Men recently, and these colors just scream 1960s :)



Ps...the font is free! You should probably go download it if you haven't already.

I love illustrations that are simple and use only a few colors. This Fruita Blanch branding done by Atiups is amazing. The print is gorgeous that I couldn't stop staring at it! And matching with this print are the slightly-vintage mason jar peach jams from Martha Stewart. Peaches are so perfectly summer to me.



Anyone else a fan of peaches for the summer? What's your favorite summer fruit?

It's time for another round of Product & Print! This week I was completely inspired by the looks of Sass & Bide Resort 2014. The futuristic aztec warrior vibe of the top matches up well with this typography work by Mats Ottdal.



Happy Tuesday!


Oh, and PS - did you notice I changed up my layout?! I finally did it! I mentioned that I wanted to focus more on illustration than I have been, so keep your eyes out for more illustration posts, both personal and found :)

The Triangimals project by Pasquale D'Silva is one of my favorite ongoing projects. The geometric nature of these illustrations pair perfectly with this fabric quarter.



Also, I hope to start sharing more illustration on my blog, both personal illustrations and found ones. I'm hoping to launch a brand new re-design in July, and I want to feature more illustration than I have been in the past :)

I am completely in love with this branding for The Ice House by Bethany Sandberg. It's so fresh and yummy, and perfect for summer. And it pairs perfectly with this little sorbet dress...she's ready for warm weather & fruity treats!

I really love this honey vanilla suryp recipe - I'm a big fan of honey, and a bigger fan of vanilla, so this is perfect for me! I can see this being served in a fancy drink at a party using a similar invitation to this save the date. I love the bold type on the first side and all of the charming hand type details.

How punchy and happy is this digital illustration drawn by Jason Wong? It's so in-your-face and I love that. I chose to pair it with the more subtle DNA tea towel form Cotton & Flax. Imagine eating brunch on a bright sunny with that illustration hanging and using those tea towels...yes, please! Plus, the citrus colors in that photo match up so perfectly with the print!

These colorful invites caught my eye immediately. Obviously I love that pink color, but the use of type and that black & white photo is beautiful. The couple with that wedding invite would also be using these princess straws on their day...and maybe some black & white ones too.

Oh boy, it's another week isn't it? How these days are flying. This week is featuring this dress and beautiful print. Both are so perfect for this time of year, no? I would definitely be wearing this dress all year!



What are you currently loving at the moment - any prints or clothing?

I've had this print bookmarked for quite some time, and it it just makes me want to plan a whole party around it! I would love to throw a fun, vintage-type garden party with lots of outdoor games (bocce anyone?). Wouldn't it be fun to serve drinks on these confetti felt coasters? If only I had the space to entertain a party like that...

When I saw this design by Erin Fuller, I knew I had to share. It's just cool. I knew the accompanying product had to be of similar coolness. The ALC Pre-Fall 2013 collection is just that. The woman wearing these clothes would definitely be going to that show, and taking the poster home with her to hang on her wall.
