DEERFACE

I am in love with the illustrations by DEERFACE.   She works wonders with Gouache and WaterColour.  Inspiration to do more of that myself!  She also makes the most adorable Brooches and miniature Stickers which she sells on her ETSY store.

She is offering $50 Gift Vouchers to her ETSY STORE.  This would be a lovely gift.

Well, I am off to Arizona for a few days to celebrate my cousin graduating from college.  Hopefully I will return with some color in my cheeks.   xoxo -Kelli

STANLEY & SONS

Thursday, February 3rd, 2011

While digging through the archives of FFFOUND in search of some logo inspiration, I stumbled upon this amazing company based out of New York: STANLEY & SONS.  I am a sucker for good branding and utilitarian design, so their website lured me in right away.  I love this simplicity and creativity of this logo.  It actually makes me want to brand MYSELF better.  Something that has been on my “to-do” list for far too long now.  I can’t remember the last time I updated my website with my latest work.  I find it so much easier to brand other people than to brand myself.  But anyway… I digress.  The original Apron and Bag Supply Company was a manufacturer of factory aprons and bags operated by Stanley Grodzki.  Chris Grodzki followed in his grandfather’s footsteps and opened Stanley & Sons Apron and Bag Co. in 2008.  Each piece is handmade one at a time and all aprons and bags are made to order.  I love that there are businesses out there that still run like this.  Sam (my husband) and I have talked about starting a small business like this together one day.  Creating one of a kind jewelry designs and selling them to local shops and boutiques.  It never hurts to dream.

And speaking of utilitarian design, forthcoming brand PUBLISH is one to keep an eye on (boys…if any of you are reading).  They continue to re-innovate militarian wear with classic jazz inspirations for Fall 2011 titled “Classic Improvisation.”  They have been a source of inspiration while I’ve been busy designing new silhouettes for JEDIDIAH.
