city fun - okc.

One of my favorite blogs, design*sponge has all things art, crafts, DIY, city guides (hence the purpose of this post), etc!

I actually subscribe to their RSS feed but for one reason or another hadn't been keeping up with it. The other day noticed I had some 70+ articles in my inbox and decided it was time for a clean up.

While shuffling through them I came across a city guide that peaked my interest. Why you ask??? Well because it was of the one and only Okla. City, which I consider to be very underrated and this guide proves it. I've lived here for more than 10 years and though I've been to or heard of a lot of these places, there were still several I've never ever heard of! 

Here's a link to the city guide HERE, sorry the links no longer work on design sponge but if you if you do a google search of these places almost all of them have sites.

They have tons more city guides that you can thumb through HERE too.

I'm going to be really busy now... lots of places to visit! Enjoy!

geometric states.

Not really sure how I happened upon the idea to make retro geometric states... boredom probably played a big role in this. Maybe I'll make the other 47 some day but for now figure the states where my closest friends live is a good place to start!

Oh and the little hearts represent the towns in which they live.

Post script. My favorite part about playing on photoshop-indesign-illustrator is it creates the perfect atmosphere for listening to music. Ps-Id-Ai & iTunes should marry. They go together like PB&J!

etsy favorite finds.

After receiving etsy's daily e-mail featuring hand picked items for some time now, I've come to the conclusion that, aside from the irresistible purchases from Target's stationary aisle, I am going to by all my paper good needs from etsy. Take a peak at some recent favorite finds.
