we’ve been hecka busy in the studio lately. we’ve got several design + printing projects we are working hard on. plus, holiday orders are in full swing. and, we have some secret, hush hush stuff going on behind the scenes, too. i can’t wait to share the hush hush stuff with you guys, but it may be a couple of weeks before we can. in the meantime, it’s going to be so tough not to spill the beans!

hope you have a fabulous weekend!

it’s a good thing i spent a good chunk of wednesday organizing our studio, because lookie what came in the mail today.

this lovely address file now has a sweet home on my desk. i’ve been lusting after it for what seems like forever, and i finally decided to get on the waiting list for one.

it’s handmade, filled with pretty + colorful recycled paper, and receiving it really made my day!

over the years, i’ve been very fortunate to meet many supportive and talented people in the blogging world. back when kacey and i were forming duet letterpress, several of these blogging friends and i realized we were all embarking on a similar path at the same time. we were all in the midst of starting up our own businesses. each of us had goals. each of us had questions. together, we decided to form a little group in order to draw strength and knowledge from each other and go along this new business journey together.

our little group known as the bodacious business planners is comprised of four wedding planners, two stationery designers, two photographers and an illustrator, and today we are being featured on sage wedding pros. thanks michelle!

we’ve been quite busy in the studio lately. despite the summer heat, we’ve been working on a little christmas line of cards + tags. seems crazy that august is halfway over and the holidays are around the corner. 

oh, and thanks for the dining room prints feedback. i’m still undecided though i’m leaning towards framing travel pictures and hanging a blanca gómez print in another room. 

off to drop off these goodies into the mail. happy thursday!

this weekend, i picked up the most beautiful peony blooms. they smell so, so lovely and are huge – about the size of my hand. there’s just something about having fresh flowers around. i can’t help but smile when i see + smell them.

hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
