Cori Dantini



Cori Dantini is an illustrator and a full time mother. She uses paper from vintage books from 1922 and before, and walnut ink to make her illustrations on. Her limited edition prints can measure anything from 4"x7 1/2" to 5"x7". Each of it is signed with signature, number, and title on the back. I might buy a print or two (or more) because these are on 1/2 off sale in her shop. You can too, here.

NoteMaker: Gift Card



I am loving this cute owl shaped gift card by NoteMaker. This card is blank with lines for writing a little note for your loved one. I think it'll surprise the recipient with cuteness!

Mia Overgaard's Illustration


Hope you all had a great weekend. I had one hell of a weekend! I did meet a few close friends of mine and had long conversations on phone with those who live far from where I am. In the middle of everything else, I did manage to go out for shopping with my hubby, actually it was less of a shopping trip and more of visiting our favorite spots together. Crawling traffic in New Delhi is no new news for us but the traffic jams have gotten worse. We almost dread going to any place which is more than 10 Kilometers(approx. 7 miles) in car, walking is no option. Otherwise, Delhi is same old for us. Family, food and fun! The three most essentials for my survival :)

I did take some pictures on my mini-trips in my neighborhood and to Connaught Place, one of the hot spots in Delhi. You can check some of the pictures here. I gave title and brief descriptions to the pictures. If you want to know more about any of it feel free to shoot me an email or leave me a message.

Let's start our week with Mia Overgaard's gorgeous illustrations. She studied fashion in Denmark and has grown to like drawing clothes and models more than making clothes. Her work is inspired by "Music, children, fairy tales, art in general, nature, my life!" To know more about Mia read her interview here. You can buy her beautiful work here.

Friday Freebie + Thank You + India Trip


Happy Friday everyone! I want to pause and thank you all for your support, emails and comments. Your kind and encouraging words make my each day special. This blog has become an integral part of my life. I don't know what I'd do without it. I've met so many wonderful people via this blog and have made friends. It's just amazing to know lovely people who are on the other side on the screen. So, thank you.

Another big news that I want to share with you is that I am in India at the moment. It was spur of the moment thing and everything happened lighting fast. I am home and very excited about it! I have to do some catching up with friends and family this weekend. So, I will see you now on Monday with tons of owl-love. Yeah, I'll be taking photos while I'll travel around. Would you like to see my home?

This week's generous freebie is by Tracy of Blue Finch Studios.
