Isn’t this nifty? Oneighty Creative, a design and branding collective, created this enormous photograph as a means to show their clients, visually, how their creative process of designing a brand identity is put together start to finish. Start to finish, top to bottom, end to end… this is just plain cool! I love how they’ve turned something abstract into this sort of visual mind map documenting step by step their methodology – as they say, “a sort of mad hatter’s tea party feel, creating order out of chaos”. Absolute brilliance!

Honk if you love paper! (Honk honk.) I do. Bre & Emma do. Enter, Our Paper Shop: a lovely little shop the duo created to celebrate that love. Together they’ve created a delightful collection of stationery including cards, postcards, calendars, and even custom stamps. (Fun!) This is the stuff love affairs are made of, guys. They love paper, I love paper, we all love paper! It’s like a circle of love. (Aww. ♥)
Cute, right? I love their funky spin on minimalism. Their collection is fresh, beautifully edited, and full of cheer. And I love it lots and lots.
P.S. Speaking of love, they just launched their new “love” line this morning… it’s super cute!

Those that know me, know that I’m a wee bit head over heels for winter. It’s only the greatest season! Nothing beats knitted scarves, snugly mittens, icicles sparkling in the light, that tingly feeling when your nose starts to un-thaw after being out in the cold air. And most importantly, snow!! It’s no stretch of the truth when I say snow is one of my favourite things in the whole wide world. “Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes / Silver white winters that melt into springs /These are a few of my favorite things” – that lyric could have been written by me. It hasn’t been feeling too wintry around these parts the whole season and that’s been supremely depressing (for me, anyway). But over the weekend, we finally got a nice little dusting of snow, and I’m thrilled! ILU, snow.
P.S. Trying a little something different with my images this time around. Yay/nay?
