The first thing I’d like you to consider today is this article from The Review Review by Michelle Seaton (I found this after it was tweeted by @Explorer – a great resource that you should follow).

Looking For Awesome Gifts That Give Back?
Just found this gem – Ugmonk, a t-shirt (and other things) company that not only has SUPER cute shirts and such, but is also giving you 10% off for the holidays AND feeding a hungry child with each purchase. The typography and cleverness of these items makes me a teeny bit jealous, like “why didn’tContinue reading “Looking For Awesome Gifts That Give Back?”
Yes, I’m Back
This morning I’ve had the song “Back In Black” By ACDC stuck in my head, because really – is there a better come back song? I feel like it’s fitting for my comeback from the world of a 9-6 job, to the world of total freedom and doing whatever I want. So, now thatContinue reading “Yes, I’m Back”

Design On Fire
First, you should know – I LOVE the hunger games. I thought the series was really well done, and the movies didn’t do such a bad job either.

Flag Day – A Design History Snippet
Below is a really interesting post I ran across about the design of the U.S. flag, and it’s a history I’ve never heard before. You usually get the Betsy Ross story and the cute little cartoon of her sewing in a rocking chair, but I think this is MUCH more interesting. Enjoy! You can readContinue reading “Flag Day – A Design History Snippet”

Happy Mother’s Day!
I actually got my Mother’s Day gifts purchased and in the mail way ahead of schedule this year, which is awesome. I purchased from Etsy which saves me a lot of time not having to mess with the shipping myself, and now all I have to do is send the cards and call on theContinue reading “Happy Mother’s Day!”
