Le Love. Because we can all use more love in our lives.

Le Love is an amazing blog devoted simply to   l o v e.

With small snippets of text and filled with images of soft intimate images you will always leave with a smile on your face,  a light glow of love around you , and the urge to kiss someone.

Now, Go + be smitten!

In the sky..

We were at a birthday party / picnic this weekend.
The seagulls arrived just in time for a photo op.
Those silly birds were trying to outdo the Birthday girl!

On my desk.. and in the studio.

Linzie Hunter (illustrator extrodinaire!) has a wonderful blog
that invites other creatives to share whats on their desk and in their studio.

It's called, appropriately enough: On My Desk.

My little spot was listed this week.
You should go and see all the other lovely places too!

This past weekend..

Barley wanted to go swimming


so we filled up the tub


and he prepared the toys.


to collect.


and watch.


and contemplate.


and gather - even underwater.


it's so exciting.


that he has to bark.


loudly!!


and celebrate


even on his back!!


The End!

We are all connected

I really wish I could remember where I saw this first!

Its a counter that you install on your website to show the location of your visitors.
It has the most wonderful feature though:
when you and another person are online (or perhaps many people!)
the hearts of the current viewers blink and glow in harmony!

Isn't that just lovely?

SO, add one to your site too: who's.amung.us
and we can all be connected together.

I would LOVE to be surprised by this, wouldn't you?

This is a plastic bag animal that springs to life with a swoosh of air from the subway below!

Just imagine, walking along and finding this sad looking beast only to see it jump up right in front of your eyes!

Joy!!

Deus...

Brad sent along a nice email about my work just a bit ago.
When I went to his great site, DrinkMoloko, I found this!

Deus Motorcycles.
They take existing bikes and rework them into the most incredible motorcycles I've ever seen.
I want one just so I can go out in the garage and look at it.

Oh, and their site isn't half bad either!

Thanks Brad!

I uploaded new work to PoppyTalk Handmade today and
after I was done with my own work I did a bit of window shopping myself.

And just LOOK at the Sweetness I found!

Peanut bunnies.

I know! I said I wasn't girl or frilly.
And despite what it may seem like given this post, I'm not.. really!

But if I could lean that way.. this would be the thing to put me over the edge.

Flutter

I am not a frilly person, but I LOVE eyelashes.
This takes the cake.. Eyelash creatures...

Design Personals: Eames, $0.41 each!

I've seen this around quite a bit and am so excited!
I think everything I mail for the next year will be adorned with these LOVELY LOVELY stamps!
They will be out this summer.. Read more about it here.

Two great tastes that taste great together!

Bill and I play Scrabble - a lot.
One of our favorite things is an evening at the bookshop,
playing Scrabble, and looking at magazines.
This would be the perfect stocking stuffer for Christmas next year.. It can be found here.
