A collection of Jason Munn posters, whose link I found via sisalla.

…whose screen-printed posters, book covers, and illustrations are glorious. His posters are available to purchase online in his poster shop,  right here. Wouldn’t one of these make a great gift for a music/graphic designer/letterpress lover? The answer to that question is yes. I really like Jason’s website too, it’s super easy to navigate. One of the things on my to-do list is to update my own online portfolio, it hasn’t been done since I launched it about 4 years ago. Alot has happened in four years. And wouldn’t it be great to add a shop like this to sell some of my photos and illustrations? Would you buy my photos if I had a little online shop?

Magie Hollingworth fashions paper pulp into fabulous stuff. Her work is also featured at Flow Gallery in London right now.

Incredibly inspiring. Magie makes me want to learn how to make paper pulp from my recycled paper waste and make stuff too. Oh, if only there were enough hours in a day, days in a week, years in a lifetime.

Beautiful. Classic. Sophisticated. I adore seeing how artists come up with creative ways of using recycled material in their work.

I am loving the work of artist Clare Goddard. Her pieces are currently showing at Flow Gallery in London until September 19, along with 12 other international artists who all “harness the sensitivity of the hand-made object.” Clare’s work above is made from paper, wood and thread. Gorgeous, non? The above photograph is taken by beth galton who is a fabulous food photographer based in new york, check out her online portfolio here.

I’m also in love with Clare’s studio. It’s heavenly.

I utterly adore this piece of paper cut magic that Yvette created recently for a client. So, so pretty. Click here to see and read more.

Today is the last day for dear Riley here in the (blog)house guest quarters. Please click here to read Riley’s very last post which she posted just a moment ago. I am sad to bid my dear friend farewell from the (blog)house. As she packs her (blog)cases, and steps out onto the veranda, I am teary eyed but with full heart, remembering all her beautiful posts that she has created, especially for us. Above and below I’ve created little collections of some of my favourite photos from Riley’s posts here in the (blog)house…

Riley makes so many gorgeous things – being a fashion and textile designer, she has a wonderful eye for detail. Every time I visit her house she has created something new – be it a beautiful ceramic bowl, or piece of fabric, or a simple vignette on a window sill that takes my breath away. I am so glad she came to visit us here and share so much.

But before we all get too teary eyed to see her go, I have some very, very exciting news to share with you (insert drum roll please)…

…today, being Wednesday, July 8, it is with absolute pleasure I be the first to announce that Riley just started her VERY. OWN. BLOG!

I can’t tell you how happy I am that Riley has taken the plunge. She inspires me daily, and I am wrapped that each of you will now get a peek into her beautiful world for the days and weeks and months to come. So, before you hurry over there, please, read her very last post right here in the guest quarters (leave a little comment to brighten her day), then click on the link to her blog ‘roe’ from there. She has LOTS installed for you. So lets all make her first post into the blogging world a special one, give her a big big warm welcome so that she is full of enthusiasm for her upcoming posts (which I’ve had a sneak peek already, which you are going to love!)

Thank you Riley! Au revoir, but also bienvenue!

The blogosphere is now your oyster…
