Miniature Rhino

I love everything in the Miniature Rhino etsy shop! Cute, small, and affordable items for … well, anyone really! I really love the product photos, simply done but you can tell they were thought out. (I lesson I probably need to learn for my own shop.)  Read More

Brooklyn Slate Company

I found this lovely while looking at a WordPress gallery. The Brooklyn Slate Company is the work of two Brooklynites who are obssessed with food which then turned into their slate product company. They produce and package their slate products by hand in their studio, located in (you guessed it) Brooklyn. Isn’t it amazing how simple and attractive packaging can be? “Envelopes and other materials are printed by hand, and burlap bags are... Read More

Scott Campbell

It’s no secret that I am an admirer of the tattoo world and the artistic ability involved to do them. Scott Campbell is in no way an exception. His lettering and art is beyond that of a traditional tattoo artist and I am digging his work. And it seems Scott is a hot commodity, he is no longer accepting appointments due to a full schedule but if you are still interested he is taking some on a first come-first serve basis in his Brooklyn studio. I’m... Read More

I can’t begin to tell you how great of an experience this was, Daniel Morris (the owner of The Arm) was an excellent teacher.

Camp at your local bar

If you can’t bring the city to the woods, bring the woods to the city! At least that’s what the design group Hyperakt has done for Camp; a bar located in Brooklyn, New York. The work was lead and fulfilled by designer Deroy Peraza (also Principal at Hyperakt) and sums the project up as “We channeled our inner-summer camp councelor to create branding for this fun Brooklyn watering hole that caters to stressed out urbanites looking... Read More
