Love Made Visible

I have been checking back with Mr. Letter’s Press since the Stationery Show for a full website but was appeased recently when I found that they put up a PDF with some of thier catalog on their website. I remembered seeing the above cards at the show and thought I’d share them with you… They have a little easel on the back so they can be propped up and displayed. I really liked the headless snowman… somehow I found it amusing. The thick pillowy card with the deep letterpress impressions makes a snowman look all the more lovely. Other favorites include the Thank You postcards, Generic Postcard, and the We’ve Moved postcards. Such great and graphic work.

Melissa of Potion Brand dropped me a lovely email. She is offering a great selection of holiday cards in boxed sets of 12 as well as personalized greetings with your own message printed on the insides. Love the cards, the color combinations and the great patterns. Bonus: Purchase any of their greeting cards and receive a set of free holiday gift tags, just enter “petitgreet” when you check out.

While flipping through an Anthropologie catalog, I came across these great ceramic bowls. Love the quality of color of glazes on the insides. The gold ones are so pretty, perfect for holiday entertaining.

There are some lovely holiday card options available now at Port2Port’s Etsy Shop. As always, totally swoon-worthy. The limited edition calendar sold out already today, be quick and put your orders in for cards lest your favorites be gone soon too. (thanks Joy & Grace for the heads up.)

Roland Mouret will be unveiling his collection of dresses in the U.S. for the Gap on December 1. The collection of ten dresses caused a riot in London last week as it was unveiled there. Lovely stuff… I’ve only seen a few dresses from the collection and I really like what I’m seeing. Very wearable and—dare I say—comfortable looking dresses. According to the Telegraph, Mouret tested his dresses on girls in the Gap offices rather than fit models. Three of the ten dresses are for Project(Red) and the most expensive dress in the collection tops out at $108. Love that.

Love Made Visible has a new look! Kind of. I’ve made just a few changes around here. As much as I’ve loved using Blogger over the years (Since 2001!) I recently discovered the joy of using WordPress through Nirali. Please take a look around. Some of the new features include: categories (26 to be exact!), forward and back buttons on each post page so going back to the index isn’t necessary, and an integrated search feature to find past posts easily.

Of course none of this would not be possible if it wasn’t for the fabulous Arun Kale who coded this custom theme for me. Blogger templates I can handle but PHP? Scary! Thanks so much to Arun.

Please let me know what you think in the comments. (Especially if you have browser issues.) Hope you like it!
