Print At Home Valentines!

We just uploaded a variety of diy Valentines to our Etsy Shop. We are slowly but surely developing our paper line and this is just the start. If you are looking for some last minute cards for the upcoming holiday check them out. Happy Valentine's Day!

Beautiful Couture Show

I just saw this yesterday on Poppytalk and have never seen a runway show more beautiful and I am not talking about the clothes. Look at the runway and interiors themselves.

At the Chanel Couture 2009 Runway Show the entire space was covered in handmade paper flowers.

Everything was covered...from the 32 columns, stairways, table rounds, and railings.

The article reports the 7000 flowers took 4800 hours of work. It makes me so happy that someone had the patience and grand idea to see this through. It is absolutely stunning.

More details and photos can be found here.

Pretty Stationary!

I love cards, notes, journals and everything in the paper world. Here is a post showing a few of my favorite paper products. I'm sure there will be many posts about it in the future.


Elum
I’m sure you have seen their stuff here and there but I think it is absolutely beautiful. http://www.elumdesigns.com


Hammerpress
Hammerpress out of Kansas City has a great selection of unique stationary...my favorite above is perfect for everything. The letterpress and design studio not only creates stationary but also wedding invitations, posters, cd packaging, art prints and more. Sounds like a fun place to work! http://www.hammerpress.net/


Apiary Design
A studio in love with handwritten notes, color, and vintage damask-esque prints. A wonderful combination. http://www.apiarydesign.com

MUSIC!! Music gets me through everything… work, a bad day, a good day, working out…etc. Pandora is a great internet radio service that helps you find new music based on your current favorites.

A Few of Melissa's Favorite Things

My favorite show in the world, Project Runway! The fashion creations are inspiring and the people are fun to watch too. I wish this show were on year round.

Cupcakes make my world go round! I love making, decorating, eating, and gifting them. They are the perfect treat for any occasion.
