With Paragon being so close it's taking this long before someone walked in with a hockey stick... It was for the woman's son.

A husband & wife were looking at Jeanine Payer Jewelry this afternoon when I spotted their tatoos. I asked about them and the drawing of the bird (which the husband drew) was in a video game that they used to play when they first started dating... I love the placement of them on both of their arms.

This pin was worn by the wife above. It is made from recycled paper.

This necklace caught my eye because of the simplistic style it portrayed.

a very green day...

I love how these two pieces of porcelain fruit looked in this customer's hands...

*

A single porcelain apricot with stem & one leaf

*

The double apricot

*

We've received more of these glass bulb and raindrop vases from Oregon

*

These fabulous retro watches (both in shades of green) adorned two separate customers.

These flowers were bought from Dean & Deluca by the woman on the right wearing a interesting grey shirt dress with a maroon tuxedo stripe running down the sides.

Teacher's gift ideas...

We are in full swing with Teacher's gifts and each days I am amazed by the combination of Cursive product they put together. Here are a few of my favorites:

1. poketo wallet designed by individual artists
2. graphite object with journal or notepad
3. boxed stationery with tube of pencils
4. rollerball pen with journal
5. personalized stationery using the Jean Rouget paper either in duplex or the assorted 40

New merchandise is slowly trickling in so stop by the blog or the store... whichever happens to be in your neighborhood!

it's all about writing...

Saturday, June 9th, snapshots

(From left to right): Love this t-shirt from Patagonia, silver turtle from mexico and two friends, who worked together in D.C., bumped into each other at Cursive's jewelry counter.

*

(From top to bottom): I bought cupcakes from Cupcake Cafe for a family gathering on Saturday & this is a close-up of one; Late Saturday afternoon, a woman walked in and stood in front of the Sesame Letterpress cards. I immediately noticed the buckle on the sleeve of her jacket, the way the collar stood up, and the style and asked if I could take a photo. After the photo was taken she turned towards me and that's when I took a photo of the collar of her dress. Very retro and comfortable looking!

(From left to right): I love funny monkeys, as I am one in the Chinese Horoscope calendar, so when I spotted these two t-shirts with monkeys on them I had to take a photo. The one on the left is what my cousin Maryann was wearing at the family gathering and the one on the right is M., 7 years old, wearing a t-shirt bought on the street. M. was very nice to share his t-shirt with us. Enjoy!

Accessories snapshots!

A customer wore this amazing looking flower pin along with this fabulous pair of silver sneakers. Her friend was trying on a coil necklace and turned it into this unique knot.

C. from Arizona was wearing a white cotton tunic with a sequin detail on the front and back. She was also wearing these earrings which I photographed atop my Hable Construction journal.

Two of my favorite bag designers: Hable Construction & Orla Kiely. I have a journal in the surf strip green that would match the bag on the left. The shoulder bag on the right is the first style I have seen in leather. I love the seafoam green accent on the bag and strap.

fruitilicious!
