adult coloring books

The adult coloring book craze is everywhere these days, and we are loving every minute of it! Coloring is not only nostalgic, but stress relieving and meditative! As if we needed any of those reasons, but hey the more excuses to bust out the colored pencils spontaneously the better! We have so many fun coloring books in the store right now we just had to share a few!

 

 If you are looking for some coloring fun for the kids in addition to yourself, we have you covered!

We also have coloring books that will make you laugh as you blissfully color your stress away! A MILLION cats! Who doesn't want that many cats to color?

 Some of the most beautiful illustrations in these beauties. We not only have these in coloring book form, and journal form, but also in packs of postcards so you can send your beautiful colored art to friends!  

Hooray for adult coloring books! Stop into the store to check them out for yourself! This isn't even all of them! :)

snow & graham love

I got a wonderful surprise in the mail the other day and I thought I'd share it with you. Our very good friend, Ebony from Snow & Graham, sent us a little care package in the mail. Enclosed was a limited edition notepad with an adorable Snow & Graham pen. I'll be writing in style for the next month!

Thanks Ebony... you're too sweet!

thanks, mom

Mother's Day is right around the corner and we are super thrilled to have been featured in this month's Milwaukee Magazine! Our newest Tabletopics is featured.. it's a special one for mothers & daughters.

Inside this great game are questions such as:

When you brag about me what do you say?
What about me reminds you of yourself?
What are the special gifts we've given each other?

Stop in or visit our webstore to purchase your own mother's & daughter's Tabletopics. We're pretty sure your mom would love it!

a little love!

I wanted to share some goodies that I received for my favorite holiday, Valentine's Day! The day of love is also my birthday... so these treats were extra special to me!


Cheree Berry sent the most beautiful Valentine's Day card I've ever received and a. favorite design sent a very sweet letterpressed typography love card. I received a copy of Compendium's new 2 book... which is a really great and enjoyable book to share with another person. Great for my favorite holiday! Simplesong sent over some sweet tidings... my fave... macaroons! And Angelica, our graphic designer gave me a king sized candy bar wrapped in a homemade wrapper... with another favorite of mine... a cameo silhouette.

world's smallest package

It was my birthday last month and I received the cutest (and smallest) package in the mail. My good friend from college sent me a world's smallest package along with a pretty adorable message inside.





I was so surprised to get this little package in the mail and so delighted to read that my friend thinks I am as cute as a button! This is my new favorite gift item to send to friends and family... who wouldn't want to get a world's smallest package?

more personalized fun!

Did you know you can personalize stamps too?  The site also offers a free download to Mac users, which allows you to customize border colors and give a bit more control to the final design.

Along with creating stamps for my personal correspondence, I've given them as gifts and always use them to personalize my children's invites and thank you notes.

personalized kleenex

Did you know you can personalize a box of Kleenex?  I am so giddy right now!  I love, love, love all things personalized ... love!

The first time I made personalized tissue boxes was last year ... made lots for gifts and lots for myself.

So when I recently received our new family photos, the first two things I did was order my new personalized purse {which I'll post about when I receive it}, and new Kleenex boxes.

Shouldn't everyone have personalized Kleenex?

Thank you Christine for taking a Kleenex-box-worthy photo!  :)
