Fashion Fix

Today sees me drawn to the beautiful elegant lines of fashion illustrations for my creative fix. The use of minimal lines, fluid movement and sweeps of colour make for very restful viewing.

Typography Scrabble - Andrew Clifford Capener

This limited edition Scrabble set is absolutely gorgeous... and available on pre-order HERE.

This walnut and birch set would make an amazing gift for any scrabble or typography enthusiast. Andrew's purpose of this project was to revive an old, but loved game. His idea is to excite people about typography by giving them the ability to choose what font their scrabble set would come in. The set is available in the font of your choice or with an assorted font pack. 

Love it... love it... love it

Key Issues

My new favourite thing to admire is beautiful keys. I took part in a 24 hour Universal Design challenge last week... more on that a little later... and one thing I spent a lot of time looking at was keys. So gorgeous, so simple, so chic.

Erickson Beamon

I love the idea of having a room with a high ceiling and a fabulous chandelier hanging from it. This one by Erickson Beamon is so incredibly beautiful and decadent looking. It would give a huge touch of glamour to any home. 

What Would You Do?

If you could be sitting here what would you be doing?

For me - it would be a Sunday evening, a group of friends who came over for a lazy Sunday lunch would have just headed home and I would be left to curl up with the papers and a scaldingly hot cup of tea. I would probably stay reading the style supplements until the room has grown dark and I haven't even realised.

Big Bad Wolf

The 'Big Bad Wolf' print by TugBoat is reminding me to definitely make sure that I make time to go see Red Riding Hood, only 5 more days until it's release here in Limerick on April 15th.

Check out the TugBoat Blog for more great prints.

Were Ya Born In A Barn?

I want, I want, I want.

I am loving this kitchen so much - from the wide floorboards to the kitchen stools and the ceiling beams too. You can check out the rest of this house below - isn't it gorgeous?

Buckle Up

I am loving this idea from Thabto. 

It's a reconditioned car seat buckle transformed into the simplest way to make sure you don't lose your keys. I'm not the worlds worst when it comes to misplacing my keys but I still think that this would be a cool addition to my front hall.

Felix Blommestijn

I love Felix Blommestijn's take on a deck of cards. You can follow his work here as he adds more cards to his deck.

This Is A Card

I am in love with these cards from Wit & Whistle's Etsy shop.
She makes such smart, sassy cards. The uterus card is my absolute favourite.

She also has a great blog if you feel like taking a look here.

I really love this idea for storing your bike but unless you have a really clean neighbourhood to cycle around I can't see it being very practical at all.

So true.
