leanne is my new friend and team partner. we we to a giant parking lot today and took photos of ourselves to build our portfolios. she is awesome, her style inspires me to look harder, more 90s, and blacker and mine, in turn, has inspired her to love the rainbow as much as i do. here's some samples...god we are the bomb!!!

security!

i've been collecting security envelopes recently to use in collages. the patterns are amazing. so i decided to google and try and find others who are doing the same thing....big shocker, there are a bunch. here are some examples:


jk keller collected the envelopes for a long time and is now making laser-cut envelopes with the patterns...called "insecurity envelopes"


a flickr set dedicated to the various patterns
heres a more fun way of looking at them


becky johnson on etsy makes buttons out of them!


cindy bernard documented security envelopes from 1987-1993 by photograph


sarah nicole philips makes collages


Gretchen makes beads things out of junk mail, including security envelopes


the curiosity shoppe's derek & lauren flipped the envelopes inside out to reuse


magnets by kirsten fering


recycled envelope journal by alexandre bettler via lena


this is the machine that makes them!!! i want one

that's it!!

IT'S IT!!! i'm going to be san francisco's favorite treat, the it's it ice cream sandwich for halloween. for those of you who aren't familiar with the "it's it," it is an ice cream sandwich composed of a delicious layer of mint/vanilla/cappucino/or chocolate ice cream embraced by two crunchy oatmeal cookies and the whole calorie-counting monster dipped in a thin layer of chocolate. sound amazing? IT IS!!!

here are some photos...i'm sewing the costume over the next few days. i'm so excited!!!!






someone's homemade (probably not as good) it's it


apparently google has it's own natural it's it (there goes my entrepreneurial gig)
