+ Otto & Elisabeth Dunker

Hideehi!

I hope the end of the week is shaping up nicely for you. I'm looking forward to sliding into the weekend not too stressed and hopefully with an outfit for my brothers wedding! I am also on a mission to make 21 tissue pompoms for wedding decorations : )

Something fun and inspiring to share with you today - ready?

Otto and Elisabeth Dunker

Are you familiar Elisabeth Dunker's (from Studio Violet fame) blog Fine Little Day? At the beginning of this week on Elisabeth's blog she announced a new side-kick - finelittleday.com...

"Fine Little Day is a multidisciplinary art and design platform and brand.Sprawling, impulsive and inconsistent. It is not faithful to any single line and does not have the ambition to be cohesive or even well thought through.

Fine Little Day specializes in playful creating based on pleasure and joy.The main goal is to work with interesting and stimulating tasks. To produce happy and environment-friendly products, work shops and lectures for both adults and children. Our desire is to be kind, friendly and of course to have fun on the journey. The aim is also to have collaborations with creators of various kinds."

What is super duper cool about Elisabeth's first collaboration is that it is with her 8 year old son Otto. Otto (just like his mama) is super talented and has created two wallpapers for Elisabeth's .com store. How cool is that!?

V and W

These last few letters seem to want to come out in pairs... so here we have V and W!

So many gorgeous things to share with you today : )

First up:

Studio Violet

I first discovered Studio Violet over at Poppytalk (thanks Jan!). After a journey around their website, shop and blog I knew that the work of Camilla Engman and Elisabeth Dunker would be something I'd like to share with you - I know you are going to enjoy it!

Both Camilla and Elisabeth started their design based training at HDK, School for Design and Crafts in Gothenburg (Sweden). They now combine their talents in this gorgeous range of paper products... have a look!

Sarah Wilkins

I first wrote about Sarah Wilkins HERE. Sarah is a super clever and very talented illustrator... (and a lovely person too : ). She's the kind of person who inspires you to chuck in your day job and pursue your artistic dreams...

Sarah makes her living from her illustrative work and lucky for all of us we can now peruse her portfolios via her sparkly new website! With an impressive list of international clients her work can be found in (and on) favourites like Real Simple, Barnes and Noble, Gallison, Mudpuppy and Roger Le Borde... lets hope she starts her own range of products soon!!
