Now that all the holiday rush is over, I thought I'd share some of the things I got for Christmas. Kinsey gave me this wonderful fox necklace from boygirlparty.
I've loved this store for quite some time and have various prints and cards from her. I've been wearing this necklace everyday it seems.
He also gave me fabric. Lots of fabric, which I love. A few are from illustrator, Julia Rothman, whose work we both admire much. I can't wait to start using some of these! The green hill one on the far right, I'm planning a octopus or squid plush with it. I can see it now.
So great!
Also, on the subject of Julia Rothman, he got me this wonderfully illustrated book she did.
We saw a review on designsponge a while ago, but I completely forgot about the book. The illustrations inside are beautiful!
You may be wondering what I got Kinsey since he got me all these and more awesome things?
Here's one more thing he can cross off his list for his new business.... an iMac! (I must admit though, I've been using this a little bit and LOVE it. It's so much easier to use for photo editing and updating than our rather old laptop.)
In addition to my Christmas fabrics, I stopped by our local fabric outlet and picked up some great finds. First, this rocket ship fabric.
It caught my eye across the room and I fell in love. Not completely sure what I'll do with it, but it DID inspire a new plush design. Any ideas? (Coming soon!)
On the $1.98 a yard table, I found this crazy circus fabric. Once again, I have no idea what my plan for it is, but I couldn't resist getting half a yard.
And finally, from the .99 cents table:
I've actually seen this before there, but for some reason never purchased any. It's a pretty thin cotton, but such a lovely print.
Obviously, I'll be keeping busy!
