Wishlist... Nancybird














delicious, gorgeous nancybird. every now and again, you find a standout. now I know that this brand has been around for a little while, but i feel that its still worth mentioning because these pieces are just too lovely too ignore. xx

so again, it's been a long time in between drinks. you'd think, not hard to write a little something, pop up a pic or two. no, not hard, but sometimes other things get in the way. I have had a lot of things lately.

I know a lot of things, by Ann and Paul Rand









































































We all know how much I admire Paul Rand, and Nick has just posted a video interview with him, so I thought I would continue the admiration with some pics of his sweet childrens' book (created along side his wife Ann). Bought this several months ago from the lovely ladies at we heart books. It's been sitting on my shelf as when I showed my little one, he got all excited and now there is a small rip on one of the pages. I was devastated at the time (over it now). So now there it sits on my shelf next to my other children's books that I am keeping safe, the books I purchase for my boys... that are secretly for me (they can have them when they are older and appreciate great design & illustration). Until then, on my shelf they sit. One with a rip.
