Coolest Boys Wallpaper

I was reading decor8/Holly Becker's post today on PaperBoy Wallpaper out of the UK, and I just want to kiss her for that post! I LOVE LOVE LOVE their shadow puppet wallpaper. I don't even have a little boy, but think it would be so fun and refreshing to have on a wall.

Thanks for the find Holly!

ps - you can currently purchase their wallpapers from Not on the High Street.

An array of her images are available as prints, notebooks etc through her Etsy site, and large size, limited edition prints are available on her website, The Animal Print Shop.

Paper Pastries

I had the pleasure of meeting Margaret, the designer of Paper Pastries, at Renegade in Los Angeles this year. She has a really cute line of products made with stamps designed by her.

I'm a great fan of her Communication - Signed, Sealed, Delivered Stationery Set, as well as her labels and bookplates. Can't wait to see more of her work!

Listography!

I may be new to the Listography bandwagon, but it's such a nifty website and tool!

If you're a fan of lists, and compile lists of everything (favorite songs, restaurants to go to, places to visit, birthdays, favorite bubble gum), Listography provides an online place to create a database of your lists. From the mundane to do's, all the way to a random list topic generator, they have you covered.

And for the old fashioned, the paper versions of Listography are published through Chronicle Books.

Urban Outfitters -Tree Pillows

I had posted a while back on the tree/branch bedding they had over at West Elm, which is sadly no more. But I stumbled across these panoramic photos of trees printed onto pillow cases, over at Urban Outfitters. Might be great if they had a duvet cover to match.

Renegade Craft Fair - Los Angeles

Whew! I'm still pooped from Renegade last weekend!

It was great to meet so many people who's work I've seen everywhere, and also to put a face to the name.

Here's a few of the fun folks I saw:

Paper Pastries

Erin Dollar

Sycamore Street Press

Dee and Lala

And of course, there were many many more! If you ever get a chance, you must visit a Renegade event, if only to see some of this great work in person. And of course, to support handmade work.

I should have some of my new products that debuted at Renegade up in the shop soon......

Rare Device/Aimee Wilder

Geoff McFetridge

Graphic Designer extraordinare. Artist. Director. And just an all round awesome jack of all trades.

Known for much of his design work with the defunct Grand Royal Magazine , X-Large Clothing, as well as projects with Nike et al, and his beautifully simple title sequences for the Virgin Suicides, Geoff McFetridge has been building his body of work to include wallpaper, through his Pottock Prints imprint, and sometimes very limited edition, hand screened cards.

The wallpaper is more easily available through his own Big Cartel shop, as well as in some stores, but is amazing since it's eco friendly! Hand silk screened in Los Angeles, the wallpaper is printed on recycled paper utilizing waterbased inks, which is nice to see for a change. 

So for those of you that love contemporary graphics, or even art, Pottock Prints, might be the way to go, especially with its easy on the wallet pricing.
