Don’t forget, I’ll be leaving this Friday to go away for two weeks (preparing and designing new product for NSS!) so this Friday will be the last day for me to ship out shop orders before I leave.  If you’ve been on the fence on whether or not to get some Valentine’s Day goodies, get them now while you can!

There are a lot of gorgeous calendars out there every year, but this one from Katie Vernon one is drop dead gorgeous.  Definitely at the top of my Christmas wishlist!  (Thanks for the tip, Nole!)

So much to be thankful for!  Happy weekend, everyone.

This weekend brought my first holiday fair of the season, Craftopia, and it was a great success!  The space inside the Hope Artiste Village was gorgeous and I was lucky to be inside a room called “The Greenhouse,” complete with exposed brick walls, vaulted ceilings, and skylights allowing natural light to cascade over my table.  Everyone that visited the fair was so friendly and offered the loveliest compliments on my work, and the new calendars and holiday cards got a great reception.

I am F-I-N-A-L-L-Y photographing (well… rephotographing, actually… I wasn’t pleased with the first batch) the new work this week and the shop will be stocked with everything for the holidays by next Monday (but hopefully sooner).  I’ll keep you posted!

I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that it’s November, but this Sunday (the 11th) will be my first holiday fair of the season!  Come visit the Letter & Lark table and see all the talented artisans at Craftopia (run by Rhody Craft 100) at the Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket, RI.

We’ll be there from 10 am – 4 pm… hope to see you!

Came across the work of artist Kelsey Garrity-Riley today and really love the delicate line work and soft color palettes.  Really sweet!

This post deserves an exclamation point (or two)!!  Excited to share some news I’ve kept under wraps until now: this May, Parrott Design Studio and Letter & Lark will be sharing a booth at the National Stationery Show!

Something that has always been a long term goal for both Sarah and I (for a few years now) is finally happening.  We’ve got a lot of hard work ahead of us, but we are both really excited and can’t wait for May!

This is so exciting!  One of my favorite calligraphers, Neither Snow, teamed up with one of my favorite stationers, Mr. Boddington’s Studio, for the most gorgeous invitation & stationery designs.  So many new things to look at – such great eye candy for today!
