post No.252 Fall is Golden

parcelpost — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 14:12:45 +0000

Right about this time every year, I feel like fall and the Thanksgiving holiday get suddenly fast-forwarded. I always want to savor fall until the very end, and put a blinder up to all things December until November has fulfilled its duty. This task is completely impossible for me since I have a retail store, but the sentiment is there. Below are some amazing stationery + art pieces with some warm golden fall tones.

post No.248 Brooklyn Rehab

parcelpost — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 13:34:53 +0000

I am experiencing a bit of coolness overload, now that I have discovered Brooklyn Rehab. It is a line made of vintage and found objects reclaimed to perfection. I love love love (and want) these numbered napkin rings! Oh what I would do with these little stylers for Thanksgiving dinner – if I had a big long table!

Also pictured: the NYC souvenir, a ceramic owl, walnut wood key, and the whale plaque. You can find more of their line, right here.

Since I am surrounded by so much candy after Halloween, (our little bumble bee raked it in this year!) I was inspired to post about some candy colored favorites around here!

post No.246 Friday at the Shop

parcelpost — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 19:57:06 +0000

Today’s Friday at the Shop Post is going to have to be minimal. I’ve been super busy with all things Halloween around here at the store and also with our little bumble bee’s social calendar for the weekend. Today we received a series of different “mapnote” city cards by Maptote and I am especially loving this Los Angeles tag. So original!

Happy Halloween weekend friends!

post No.245 Give Studio

parcelpost — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 16:39:51 +0000

I first discovered Give Studio at the NSS in New York and have really enjoyed having their line in at Urbanic! Part of what is so unique about their collection is that they write it how they say it! Some of my favorites that we have in shop say things like, “you are fun”, “nice job”, “i am thankful” and “hey superstar”.

We have a fun 3D book at home and have been completely having fun lately watching animals jump out at us. Then over the weekend we went to a 3D movie, and I realized, it didn’t need to stop there because there are lots of adorable paper products with this built in feature!
