customized birth announcements

what a great idea for a birth announcement. by far the coolest you will ever find!

styled after gig posters for rock concerts. by rattle n roll. just send him an image of your baby and he'll customize it to your specs.

he even does birthday invites.

it's up - we heart gocco

we heart gocco is now online. a nice little gallery of the print gocco world.

background: "in december 2005, gocco’s parent company, riso, announced they are discontinuing manufacturing the print gocco system due to low sales in japan. savegocco.com was created in december with hopes that it may not be too late to work together to find a new home for gocco outside of japan. for more information on the history of gocco and to find out how you can help, please visit savegocco.com ".

so fun to see one good bumblebee's work included. i also like aaron draplin's piece called, "things we love".

oh they are all great! some i mentioned earlier this week. so many! go see! we heart gocco!

vacant lot

vacant lot, originally uploaded by luckyfish.

this image by luckyfish caught my eye in flickr the other day and i immediately thought it was taken in new york. it just has that feel. perhaps it has something to do with the atmosphere the holga added to it, but it definitely did't look like vancouver. or the typical vancouver image. this is the eastside; and degan has captured it so well.

pillow fight club

i love the idea of a flash mob pillow fight club so much! it looks like a blast! found it on design public's blog (hatch). and the idea of making feather angels afterwards is so bliss.

found a few pillows while browsing, like this one by three sheets 2 the wind; the inhabit kaleidoscope minor pillow; the inhabit lifesaver pillow and i'm still digging the hybrid-home secret service design (in pink).

woodhouse be mine!

i'm rather digging this woodhouse chair by jonathan adler. i'm just imagining my hands tapping the slopes of the arms already!

a valentime ( yes - "time") tree!

yay! another tree! here from hulaseventy.
