Friday night David and I went to check out the Japanese “Washi” Masking Tape installation at the Upcycling exhibition at Merci made by be-poles. Champagne, bread, cheese, friends, lots of colorful masking tapes, pretty collages and an incredible special edition book made it a pretty fun night. I absolutely love the collages made by be-poles that surround the tapes on the tabletop so here is a little tour of the table area to share with you.

Journal de Nimes

The Journal de Nimes French Issue came out in April but I love this issue so much, especially the article on Diptyque, I thought I’d share it. I never knew their candles were free of any artificial or harmful products! It makes me love them even more. You can view the issue and read the article online here.
Issue No. 5 just came out today and is online here.

Isabella Rossellini's Sex in the Sea

Sundance Chanel Green porno Isabella Rossellini

After seeing Eco Trip I discovered another amazing show by Isabella Rossellini, there is never usually much tv in my life but these are only 2 minutes long and you can watch them online. They’re a little bizarre but this show has amazing sets and costumes, and is a pretty funny production.

Little Gift Guide

Scout Holiday little gift guide
See Saw letterpress 2009 calendar

A bit last minute but here are some small gift ideas that I thought I’d share. Not quite as extravagant as my very selfish wishlist but I am mostly making gifts this year and like to look for little things to go along with those gifts. These little wood elephant bottle openers are amazing, my favorite Postalco notebooks available from South Willard, Tortoise and Auto, Juniper Ridge California Bay Laurel soap smells like trees! I love it and it’s actually made of trees and all natural ingredients, I have also seen it for sale at Mothers Markets so you might find it there and avoid shipping, this little box is just interesting and would make a great little lunch box, a lovely little print from Fifi Lapin, colorful rock soap, a Honey in the Rough knotted headband, and the easiest gift to give is Papabubble, it’s really amazing how they get the letters so small in this amazing candy, I miss stopping in there to say hello to those guys. I also received a very cute letterpressed calendar from SeeSaw letterpress, and I love the colors and linear layout of it, it’s a very sweet gift.

Who wouldn’t love a little gift wrapped up like this? As someone who uses paper doilies and ribbons for any excuse I can find, I am in love these beautifully wrapped packages made by Emma Cassi.

these stationary products from and spring are so simple and perfect. I wish it was easier to find stationary shops that carried products like these.
