These Totally Get My Vote

Little Ant Design has a post up about some truly creative posters dedicated to getting out there and voting next week. Such a good find for your upcoming election parties or just to post in your yard, on your wall, in your cubicle (read your HR manual first...) etc.


I'm smitten with these. The first gets the message out with a new twist on the classic red, white and blue and it's pretty funny, too. Funny gets my vote every time. I love it so much I need to have a party based around it AND have it made into a t-shirt. Kudos to Jeff Bucholtz at Office, www.visitoffice.com.

The second is just a lovely little hippie mix of voting love by Shannon Knepper. I can dig it, man

Off to Dallas, Ya'll

Just a quick note to say I'm off to Dallas for a long weekend to visit family, friends and attend a little something you might recognize...



So looking forward to seeing Jenn from HWTM and attending this Hip Hostess event with my girlfriends that live in the Lone Star State.

See ya'll real soon.

Letterpress (Etsy) Love

Etsy never ceases to amaze me. I actually found these adorable letterpress items from lisa.sweetbeets on Flickr, and lo and behold, Lisa has an Etsy store where you can purchase them. Excellent news for those of you not lucky enough to have a retailer in your area that carries these gems.


Not only are these perfect to send but they offer some seriously good inspiration for party decor and themes. More inspiration can be found on Lisa's children's design blog, modeco kids, as well.

Enjoy these etsy delights! Did I mention they are eco-friendly? BONUS!

Thing One and Thing Two Are Here!

Say it with me, "Awwwwwwwwwwwwww."

Isn't technology grand? The boys were born about an hour ago and I already have picture mail on my phone!

Missing in Action

Apologies for the lack of posts. One of those weeks where it seems like everything happens at once. Hoping to bounce back (like the Red Sox did last night!!!) next week.

Thanks for your patience, and GO SOX!
