Here is another fun typography game called I Shot the Serif. This one even has a free iPhone app. The object of the game is to shoot all the serifed characters in the designated amount of time in order to move onto the next level. It’s perfect for waisting a few minutes in between projects :). You can play it here.
Type Fight
How was your Easter? Jake and I had a wonderful day. We ate lots of good food and just relaxed all day long. For some unknown reason though, I feel exhausted today. That doesn’t seem fair. Shouldn’t I be energized for the week ahead when I had such a lazy weekend? Maybe I’ll have to take a nap later. This …
Finders Keepers: Easter Egg Art
Believe it or not I have never dyed an Easter egg before. I guess it just was never a part of our Easter celebrations. Which I’m kind of surprised about because my mom was very craft oriented when it came to entertaining my siblings and I. I found some dyed eggs that look more like little art masterpieces to me. They are all so …
Paint By Numbers
Did you ever do paint by numbers as a kid? I think I tried my hand at it a few times. Well Katie from Katie’s Pencil Box has come up with the most brilliant idea ever, no really! Inspired by two different vintage paint by numbers pieces, she made her own mural for her son’s little art studio. The best part is that she …
Instagram!
I woke up this morning to discover that Instagram just released their app for android! I have to admit, I’ve been pretty jealous of the iphone users who were spoiled with such a nice camera application. Nothing quite satisfied me on the android. This morning I took some pictures around our apartment to try out the app. It’s a lot of fun. Here are a …
April Fools with Google
Did you prank anyone on April Fools? I always look forward to see what crazy thing Google is going to come up with. They did three prank videos this year (that we found). My favorite was Gmail Tap. It’s so perfectly ridiculous. I love how well designed everything Google does is–even for April Fools.
Finders Keepers: Apartment Gardening
I think I’d like this. Let me rephrase that…I know I’d like this. You can look inside the book over on Amazon.
Movable Type Truck
Photo by Derek Fagerstrom via Movable Type Have you heard of the Movable Type Truck? Kyle Durrie, a letterpress printer from Portland, Oregon, rebuilt a 1982 Chevy Step Van into a mobile letterpress studio. The name and idea is a genius. If you don’t know, movable type refers to the system of printing that uses moveable pieces of type such as letters, numbers, and punctuation to reproduce the elements …
Pretty Pattern
I am seeing some pretty patterns in our new apartment–especially the more abstract ones. Maybe I’ll try DIYing some bold art. That sounds like a fun weekend project to me. I did read decorating with big oversized things like artwork and rugs in smaller apartments make the room seem larger. Have you heard anything like that? Velveteen endpaper VELVETEEN RABBIT (1922) William …
Seems Impossible
Vapor Qualquer I was talking with my friend over dinner last night about how we both seem to a bit overwhelmed and a little worn out by everything going on in our lives. We both have a lot on our plate right now. When that happens I usually have a hard time functioning. There is too much to do so I can’t do …
