Every once in a while when doing research something catches our breath. This interesting, beautiful and most importantly functional visualization did just that. Visual Complexity really knows how to take complex information and turn it into a truly understandable visualization. These sure aren’t your grandfathers graphs and charts.

Research is so much fun! Especially when I happen onto a very fun website. Check out these fabrics from Volksfaden. I love the illustration, the pattern, the color. Time to get out the sewing machine…

What a sweet way to say a simple greeting! These precious note cards featuring twelve Russian doll illustrations made me smile all the way to the online shopping cart!

Ryan Wallace definitely knows how to make me spend my hard earned cash. Using mixed media he creates rich textured illustrations that should belong on all of my things! I love the use of these colors and the fun memories that come to mind when looking at the Ferris Wheel. sigh…

The hand embroidery on this cotton pattern is delicate and mesmerizing. I want to wear it and make a project out of it. Check out Knoll for all the different color variations. I cant decide what color, maybe I’ll get two or three or four…
