Animal Head Vintage Umbrella

One day I'll splurge on a perfect, pretty umbrella. This one is so sweet, but I just can't stomach paying a lot for an umbrella. Maybe if it attached to the baby stroller and covered us both! Go get it, before someone else beats you to the punch. Animal Head Vintage describes it as "Argh. The cutest umbrella you will ever own" and "The unique pagoda shape is pretty much to die for."

UPDATE: My pal & web client, Kerri Silvestri, of Allow Me Events, bought this umbrella for me as a surprise thank you gift!! Pretty much the best gift ever!! 

Father's Day in the Future

Father's Day in the future will look like this!! Our boy is way too young for this, but I love how simple yet pretty it is!! I don't care if Chris doesn't really use paper, we're definitely doing this project in few years.

From Martha Stewart: Let kids redo this basic office staple as a gift for Dad -- their messages will last well beyond Father's Day.

Wrap a rubber band around a notepad cube and have kids write greetings and make drawings on two sides with a broad, pointy marker. (Fine tips will get caught between the pages.) Move band, and decorate the other two sides. Tie the notepad with a colorful ribbon. As an added gift, slide in a pen.

Liz & Geoff

I've known Liz for 12 years and am thrilled to be a part of her wedding celebration! I did her save the date cards and invitations. We letterpressed the invitations and adhered them to a perfect turquoise pocket folder. The insert cards were staggered so that all the info was easy for guests to find. Liz & Geoff are getting married in Connecticut, but live in Atlanta, Georgia so we used vintage Georgia stamps for the reply envelope.

Birthday Card

I have this paisley swirl design that I've been using a lot lately. I change the colors around every time and new life is brought to the design!

These cards are a dark & hearty purple with a warm sunshine yellow which say "Birthday Wishes." I've paired them up with the curry colored envelope. They are flat (not folded) cards measuring 4.25" x 5.5" and I hope you love them as much as I do! If you'd like to purchase them, visit the JetKat Design Etsy Shop.
