Organic Elderflower Pressé by Belvoir Fruit Farms

I think I've just found my new favourite beverage! I am totally smitten with this Elderflower Pressé by Belvoir Fruit Farms. It really has quite an unusual flavour and is bubbly and refreshing- perfect for a sunny summer afternoon. I don't even know what an Elderflower is, but I thank god for it.

And yes, the packaging is heavenly and quite possibly a contributing factor to my reverence for this product. I am now really keen to try the other flavours in the series. Melbournites- you can find these at The Essential Ingredient in Prahran Market.

Cécile Gonnard Table Linen designs

How fun and fresh is the use of typography in this collection of children's table linen titled "Mangeur Masque".  Designed by Cécile Gonnard for Grain de Couleur Création. (Personally, I think these make great gifts for 'big' kids too!) Cécile was also the talented designer behind the Woodblock Napkins.

Wooden Printer's Block Letters

Wooden Printer's Block Letters

Although the idea has been around for awhile I still think that using typography around the home is a fantastic decorating idea as it provides such an effective focal point. I love these replica wooden printer's letter blocks from Sage Inspired by Life found on Not on the High Street.

Hand-drawn Lettering

Grill'd Menu

I'm really digging some of the hand-drawn lettering goodness coming out of Australia these days- especially from Grill'd. Their takeaway menu (above) and the wall art in their stores (below) are simply awesome! For more of their illustrative/typographical craziness check out their website.  If anyone knows the illustrator responsible for this, please let me know!

I'm also a huge fan of the Hudsons Coffee wall art by Kleimeyer Industries (below). All very inspirational! :)

Found Objects: Peppermint Magazine Issue 3 & Chronicle Books Card

Found Objects July 07 2009

Despite the winter chill, it's a beautiful sunny day so I took a stroll in search of inspiration! Down at Greville St Bookstore I found this gorgeous card form Chronicle Books (below) which is a bird illustration printed onto an excerpt of a book published by Chronicle. I also stopped by Mag Nation and picked up a copy of Issue 3 of Peppermint Magazine (above) which has a very cute article about the Australian DIY phenomenon and how the craft blogging community has helped to facilitate the new craze. (Love the article's handmade title graphics!) Peppermint Mag is about eco-friendly fashion- lots of craft/handmade goodness in this issue. Definitely worth a look.

Bookhou Alphabet Wall-hanging

Bookhou typographical wall hanging

As a typography obsessive, this little piece of home decorating genius from Bookhou is very much my type of wallhanging. (excuse the bad pun). For little kids and big kids (such as myself) alike :)
