Design Womb has launched! Now Open on Etsy.

Design Womb has launched! Now Open on Etsy.

Design Womb was born awhile ago when I almost changed my website to an official “studio name.” Though I still haven’t fully committed to that big change at the moment, I will be updating this blog to reflect my new project and studio undertakings.

Now, onto the official big news! I have launched a DESIGN WOMB shop on Etsy! While the shop will eventually carry a lot more in the near future and throughout 2010, it launches with a unique collection of sophisticated, modern and unique digital wedding invitation kits. You can purchase a digital file for the invite only or the full package with a response card and save the date included. This sprang from my personal feelings that there seems to be a lack of simplistic upscale design in the wedding stationary world, especially when it comes to doing it on a budget. Most brides can not afford to pay someone to design something from scratch and print it, so these truly capture that custom feeling without the giant custom made price tag. You can read more about how it works at the shop.

Be sure to watch Design Womb on Etsy! I am working hard at expanding this throughout the year. Paper goods, design related collateral and more customizable and printable digital templates will be posted on Etsy. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me in the meantime.

An Ode to 438 N. Venice Blvd.

I have spent the last 4-1/2 years at “chez vert” 438 N. Venice, here in Venice, California. On June 1st, that all comes to an end and a new chapter in my life will begin in the heart of San Francisco. This place has been a home away from home (Michigan) to me, and I am going to miss the little things the most. The sound of quacking ducks outside lets you know you are home. Watching mama ducks with their babies out the back window makes for the perfect lunch break. Walking or running in the Venice Canals and the smell of the ocean breeze in the summer work as natural stress relievers. I could go on for awhile about Abbott Kinney, our favorite places to eat and coffee trips here, but at last it’s time to start saying goodbye Los Angeles and HELLO San Francisco!

Typography Tuesday

I missed a whole week! Yikes! Things are busy, we are moving to San Francisco. I found this typography in the sidewalk walking around in San Francisco last week while we were in town looking for places to live. Sort of loving the stamp feeling and capital letters mixed with the initial caps. Enjoy!
