Glow-in-the-dark poster

This letterpress poster is made with glow-in-the-dark ink! Genius.

Wee onesies

My darlings, I had to come back to post about these: How adorable are these custom letterpress-printed onesies? Mav is selling them for the month of June only in her WEE pop-up shop. You get to choose your favorite colors and the wording. I love them; they'd make such great gifts! xo

Thank you cards

My baby shower is coming up this weekend (I'm excited), so I've been looking for thank-you cards in advance. Love this bright number!

P.S. I also have a box of these, but they're so pretty, I can't bear to send them away, which pretty much defeats the purpose.

Rad birth announcement

Love this birth announcement. The parents are so cool, and I love how the dad's hands are in his pockets. Very mellow of him. :)

Wedding Inspiration

For their save-the-date, this couple photographed themselves lying on grass, printed their wedding date on the suitcase, and sent out the photo as postcards.

Then they made adorable signs of themselves, leading the way to the ceremony. How cute is that? See more on Smitten...

Ship coasters...

...would be a nice place to put down a gin and tonic.

Happy December.

Cute. Do you guys send out holiday cards?

Michael and Emma's posters

Apart from having a slight obsession with their their wedding, I am also in love with Michael and Emma's posters. See their new shop here.

Mike and Emma's Wedding

Remember my friend Emma, of poofy headband fame? Well, she looked so pretty at her wedding that I thought we should take a closer look at the rest of the festivities...
First off, she married a graphic designer (smart call!), so they designed their invitations together. Their friend Catherine Thompson painted their incredible portrait. ("We wanted to marry her, too," says Emma.)

They typed each invitation individually. Very Wes-Anderson-chic.

They also made buttons of their cute faces.

Then they had the intimate wedding ceremony at Emma's family's house in New York. Emma wore a ban.do headband. Michael did not.

They're friends with Stephin Merritt (!!) who sang "Walking My
Gargoyle" as Emma's dad walked her down the aisle and "You You You You You" during the ceremony. Then a few friends read Frank O'Hara's "Having a Coke with You," David Sedaris's essay "The End of the Affair," and the last paragraph of Jane Austen's Emma.

Afterwards, they all headed down to Mary's Fish Camp for lobster rolls.

Emma and Michael are the cutest, laughingest couple. Wasn't their wedding amazing?!

Best of Last Week

A silver lining about returning from a trip is catching up on all the blogs and magazines. Last week was pretty high-brow: Did you see the mysterious house on Fifth Avenue, the vintage silverware that Abbey bought at an auction (la di da!) and these funny wine tags?

Breaking News: Print for Sale!

Remember this print from a while back? Remember how sad we were that it had sold out? Well, I have great news! The store relaunched this morning and has released fifty reprints for only $30 each. If you (like me) want to order one, act fast!

Letterpress Coasters

A little treat for today: I recently discovered the fabulous Minneapolis-based Papered Together letterpress studio, so I ordered some coasters. They arrived at my office today, and they are so cute! Now I will have to plan a dinner party...

So Good, So Good

I'm a huge fan of typographic prints, and I'm a hopeless romantic. Put them together and what have you got? This amazing poster. (Look how cool it looks in a house.) I would buy one immediately, but alas they're sold out. Anyone think they could make one??

Girly Notecards

Such lovely letterpress cards--and they're printed on Italian paper! From Ella Studio.

Happy Birthday, Mama!

It's my mom's birthday today! She is beautiful and smart and kind and wonderful. We're going to Paris in September. (It's always been our dream to go there together and now we're finally doing it.) Our plan is to walk all around the city, look at art, eat cheese and baguettes, people watch, drink wine, and take day trips to chateaus and the Champagne region. She's going to show me where she shopped for our baby clothes and where she and my dad went on dates when they lived there. Seven months and counting...I love you, Mama! Happy Birthday!!
