A few recent Flickr faves. Can you tell that I have summer on the brain? I want to be wearing tank tops, sitting in a swimsuit by the pool, barbecuing every night!
Hung most of the living room/dining room/kitchen art this past weekend. Next up: my art wall in the bedroom. Trying to get some ideas there, too.
1. Gone Camping, 2. Nature’s most beautiful gift, 3. lantern, 4. Untitled, 5. my favorite wall, 6. hotels with swimming pools, 7. Peek at the new art wall, 8. Untitled, 9. Untitled
I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a language and culture assistant through the Spanish government, traveling, and writing about it here. After a few years back in my home state of Montana, I moved to Austin, Texas, where I like to go exploring, take pictures of my food, write letters, dream of far-off places, and think about concepts of home.
muchas gracias!
(i really gotta be more clever re: titles)
what do you think about designing your own calendar?
any tips? what kind of paper should i use?
depends on the look you’re going for. I generally prefer matte paper, and it needs to be a fairly heavyweight cardstock to not break through the nailhole. Or you can hang it from a binder clip. For ideas on design, I’d look to decor8’s annual calendar round-up. You can find them here: http://decor8blog.com/category/round-up/.
Good luck! Seems like a fun project.
