sneak peek

a preview of my sister's letterpressed invitation! the first image is of the first run of the press (i did two more after). i love how clean and sharp the lines are! i fell even more in love with letterpress after that first pull... the second image is of course buttons! after creating some festive buttons for a friends graduation last year i knew i had to make more.

more photos to come once i know people have received theirs in the mail :)

savory deliciousness

holy moly these savory cupcakes look good! going to have to test the recipes out this week!
ming makes cupcakes also has recipes for sweet cupcakes and cookies that all look equally amazing! check it out :)

renegade!

rode by the renegade craft fair today and was blown away by the amount of people creating such amazing beautiful things AND by the amount of people who were there to support it! i have never been so tempted to buy so much in such a small amount of time. way better than a mall!

such beautiful elaborate set ups!



one of my favorite artists Sarah Neuburger of The Small Object was there and I stocked up on some stamps and notecards :) the characters she creates are so adorable!


how elegant are these cups and dishes? i covet the gold lip platter.


sycamore street press has such sweet cards.


funny little couples :) more photos of the vendors on my flickr site!


This was such a great Saturday. I got to enjoy some time outdoors on my bike, spent time with friends, and immersed myself in lovely craftiness! Ended it by lounging in LIC park watching the Manhattan skyline...what a day!

yum yum

how cool are these flavors??? the ramen is a MUST try.
love the simple packaging too.
