Done by Rudi de Wet, this was certainly a labor of love. Although I wouldn't pick this for myself, it's definitely something to appreciate. Right?!

I am seriously drooling over this poster! I have a serious crush on the national park posters that this is modeled after, and that is why I LOVE this one! High five to the Jon Reese, the graphic designer AND the couple who decided they wanted their invite to look like a vintage national park poster!

Kevin Dart, an illustrator gets married to a cute asian gal & this is what their invite looks like! I LOVE the little couple in this poster, with a capital L.

Thinker: Dinner Party Guests

If you were to host a dinner party, who would you invite? (living)

Characteristics of my possible guests should possess are captivating stories, some sort of unique talent which = I would learn something from them. After thinking about this long and hard, I came up with a handful, of some of the most interesting people around:

1. Alice Waters  (Chef & the mother of fresh/ local food movement)
2. Mia Michaels (Dancer & Choreographer)
3. Al Green (Singer)
4. Keith Johnson (Global shopper)
5. Bill Cunningham (fashion photographer)
6. The Morning Benders : Chris Chu, Jon Chu, Julian Harmon & Tim Or (Band)
7. Brad Goreski (stylist)
8. Carsten Peter (National Geographic photographer)
9. Kristi Yamaguchi (Olympian, My hero!)
10. Andy Spade (designer, total genius) 

Party Poster, Ep. 14

Not entirely sure if there is anything as aesthetically tingling as some well done letterpress. This poster, by Christine Park, is simple and memorable. I'm in letterpress overdrive because I am about to get some sweet sweet business cards designed by the lovey local ladies at Seesaw Designs.

How sweet and simple Eleanor's work is.  Just Eleanor is a total genius! Some of her work gives off a Charley Harper vibe. You must check out some of her work via website & etsy store.

"That's the Way Uh Huh, Uh Huh"

How insane are these disco-tastic invites, that are STILL in the packaging?! I found them on Etsy yesterday. I thought it was time to do another tabletop theme!

You know that cute design couple, ellothere, from last week's party poster??? Well they've done it again with this wedding poster!

Gilded Gold Table Inspiration

First, let me just say, this took me a little bit of futzing to get everything nice on here. The good news is, I learned a few new things!!!!!

This table inspiration came about last week, when I found these AMAZING Waylande Gregory plates on my pin feed, via Creature Comforts's Ez!

 

(etch pendant lights, flowers, raw wood table, crocodile textured chargers, animal plates, gold scale glass, gold utensils
