Oh I know that Tuesday went and passed. And there wasn’t supposed to be a giveaway this week because I’m trying to finish up the second installment of the Etsy recap (the first one is here).

But then again I thought I shouldn’t let you all go off without at least a prospect of owning something lovely, so I’m putting up a giveaway for a complete set of Good to Know zines (yes, issues #1 through to #5!) to ONE lucky commenter.

Just comment on this post by 21st October and one of you will get a very hefty package of zines that’s chock full of advice + inspirations for creatives peeps! (If you already own some of the zines, then we can exchange them for future issues – I’m totally cool with that.)

UPDATE: Commenting has now closed, thanks for participating!

It’s Music Monday over on Twitter. A few weeks ago I asked if anyone wanted to have a playlist exchange, and yes, someone did! Clara Charoltte created a playlist for me. She took it one fun step further by creating artwork to coincide.

Music is personal, and so Clara made a little book about her own stories behind the songs. I thought that was the sweetest idea which meant I HAD to blog about it [plus it was a TON of hand drawn typography which makes me happy]. I just sent her a mix in return. I hope she likes it.

Send me a message on Twitter and I’ll make you a playlist!

Beautiful work by Lily Lin, a Taiwanese born Canadian living in Berlin who is available for freelance commissions. These plushies were made for the Best Friends Forever Group Show and was based on her illustrations called huggabets.

I love it when 2D ideas become a 3D product!
