new art print : spring bird and friend
























Inspired by Spring time, Spring Bird and Friend mixes soft colours with simple shapes. I am currently working on a new range of Printspace Art and Stationery, which I will be adding to the store(s) and then launching the whole lot in time for our swag of art & craft markets we are doing in November! EEK... lets get busy. xx

Hello Bluebird.























Our first US stockist, Hello Bluebird, has opened its doors in West Reading PA. Very exciting for us... yay. It's an amazing indie boutique and gallery full of unique, quirky and beautiful products from around the USA and the world, and we, little Printspace from Melbourne, are there too. Can you spot us in the photo? Photo is from Daisy Janie, who has written a nice little post about the store,a dn has included a few more pics too. So if you live anywhere near West Reading, go and check it out! I would love to, perhaps a work trip is in order.....

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.
