Mother Magpie's

I am super happy for my mom, she is starting her own business called Mother Magpie's--it's a funky mix of her vintage treasures and DIY handiwork. I got the fabulous job of designing her logo, business cards and signage. We did a large rubber stamp that she can use on manila shipping tags, and the next item up for design is a banner.When searching for the perfect shipping tag image I came across this gorgeous site! It's called Olive Manna - Textiles & Paper Goods. I think I'm in love...go check it out yourself.

Okay, I must get tuned into handmadeNATION, and buy the book I have been eye-ing and believe is available at the Museum Store for my employee discount price of less 30%. Rockin. This poster, available on Etsy, is illustrated by this fascinating artist/designer I found by perusing the 20x200 site. Her name is Kate Bingaman-Burt and she has a kick ass blog called What Did You Buy Today?. More about THIS content on See Sarah Spin. In the meantime, her illustrations complete this rad book by Faythe Levine which explores the DIY explosion and the "new wave of art, craft and design."
