MaieDae Graphics: Jennifer Purser

I mentioned that I have been working on some fun graphic design projects and have just recently finished up a college graduation announcement for a friend of mine from college. I also got to design her brother's wedding stationary, which you can see here! I love how Jennifer wanted to go with neutral tones and incorporate one of her favorite song lyrics:

Interested in having an announcement custom designed for you? Feel free to contact me at: MaieDae@gmail.com for more information and pricing. :)

Inspiration for Your Nest: Photo Walls

I've been collecting a little pile of photos and artwork I would like to use in a collage above our couch in the living room. I'm SO stuck with so many choices and what to use//not use. I've been looking for some creative inspiration and decided to dedicate my nesting feature to it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All photo's found here via my Pinterest

About five pictures up (the one with the yellow tray on the coffee table), they've used what appears to be clothes hangers to display their art...I LOVE this...I have a couple of pieces that would look best displayed just like that. Anyone know where I can find these little cuties?

AND if you haven't heard, Jon and I re-signed our lease for another 14 months which is FANTASTIC. I've been a little apathetic when it comes to walls and wanted to have more security in knowing we would be staying before going nuts on the walls. Walls...be prepared!

Happy nesting!

Weekly Wrap Up

SO, before I show my snapshot for the week and leave you with my favorite posts, I have some EXCITING news to share! Yesterday, I found out that I am an official vendor this June at the Indie Craft Experience in Atlanta!! -- I had the opportunity to visit ICE last year and can't believe I'm here, months later, getting ready to prep for the show! If you live in the Southeast, you should definitely make time to stop by. :)

Besides the exciting news above, Jon and I re-signed our apartment lease for another 14 months which means I have more of a motivation to continue nesting, since we are committing to more time. I've got some projects planned for this month that I'll be sure to share!

And now, I bring you the snapshot of the week:
