DIY: Owl Costume

Ellen Luckett Baker of Alpha Mom created this super easy owl costume using old t-shirt scarps and glue. It's a perfect last minute costume which doesn't require a stitch. I love such fun and easy on the wallet costumes. Do you know what are you going to be for Halloween?

Amy Sol




When I saw Amy Sol's work this morning my jaw dropped to the floor and my eyes popped wide open. Amy was born in Korea and currently living in Las  Vegas. Her paintings in muted and subtle color palettes are inspired by manga, folk-art and vintage illustration with modern edge. She has an upcoming solo exhibition at Corey Helford Gallery, Culver City, CA. Stop by to get a glimpse in her magical world. How I wish I could attend!

Holiday Matinee + Jocelyn Duke



Holiday Matinee and Jocelyn Duke  collaborated on this fun greeting card. They believe that cards should be sent at any time of the year to your loved ones; that'll "totally make their day." They have kept the inside of the card blank for a handwritten note to personalize the card. This unique looking owl is named "Hank Jr" and is from the fifth painting in Jocelyn’s “Friends” series. I am really loving this little guy and that couple seems really happy to adopt Mr. Jr. You can too, here!
