One Good Thing: Polaroid Notecards

I am head-over-heels in love with these new Polaroid Notecards from Chronicle Books.  The selection of 20 Polaroid cards was curated by the incomparable Jenifer Altman, and I can wait to get my hands on a set of these lovelies.  + Chronicle Books' blog + Jenifer Altman's:  blog . portfolio . flickr

One Good Thing: Notebooks by Alison Hardcastle

These simply (yet lovely) hand-printed notebooks by Alison Hardcastle would make list keeping and organization so much more fun.  And they'd make the perfect gift all stacked up and tied with a pretty bow.  Don't you agree?!

Alison also has some sweet cards available in her shop and it looks like prints and more are on their way soon!  xox Ez

One Good Thing: Dirt Poster

This Dirt Poster by Roland Tiangco (via Little Bits & Blogs) is pure genius.  While removing the poster from it's envelope the recipient's hands become smudged, and as the unfolded poster is handled, the following text appears: "The future belongs to those of us still willing to get our hands dirty."

If you love the Dirt Poster, than be sure to also checkout Roland's project Life:size... A book that opens up to reveal cleverly printed and folded pages, that when properly unfolded reveals a lifesized bookcase full of books.  So brilliant!

One Good Thing: Leather Rings

I love the simple chic design of these colorful Leather Rings from ByBoe...and they're only $15!  What a steal! I think they'd look great strung on a long chain necklace too.  Don't you?!   xox Ez

One Good Thing: Letterpressed Art Vignettes

A couple of weeks ago we (Marichelle, Melissa, and I) headed into New York City for the International Gift Fair (where we met up with Cassie, Laurel and Jennifer - my first time meeting these lovely ladies).  There were so many wonderful things to look at and drool over...and we walked around in a happy daze all day until our feet were about to fall off.  The only think I ended up bringing home with me though was this adorable print from Yee-Haw Industries.  One of the huge selling points (besides how friendly Kevin and Julie were and how sweet their prints are, was the awesome letterpressed mat that came with the print.  Anyhow... I just discovered that you can pick up their "Letterpressed Art Vignettes" at the Curiosity Shoppe.  Hurray!  They are affordably priced from $5 - $7.  Time to stock up!  xo Ez
