Typeface: HIGHWAY

And it's here! Dan Cassaro's latest typeface, Highway. A very darling (and modern) take on mid-century typefaces. Cassaro was inspired during a long cross-country road trip while seeing countless hand-done types. This is his attempt to capture the organic nature of hand-done type in a very charming way. I love the artwork he made to go with his typeface. And at only $35, that's a deal!

More Lakes: NICOLE MEYER

I love to visit Nicole Meyer's project, "Branding 10,000 Lakes" every couple of weeks to see all the latest lakes she's branded. They are almost always amazing, and certainly inspiring. I've got to hand it to her, it is quite the challenge, and she's doing a great job on it. Come on, look at that cute little onion. Yeah, I love it.

hand drawn.

Found the portfolio of Sasha Prood. She's an extremely talented illustrator and designer. I know from experience - typography with watercolors is HARD. Props to you, girl!

sprucing up!

Here's some lovelies that have been on my mind for quite some time now. You can probably tell I'm working hard on getting some decorations for my walls. Well those poor walls need some sprucing up. These all come from my favorites on Etsy and some of them I've already purchased. The rest will come with time!! ♥

ampersand

I am so sorry that I have been a missing person! It's true, I've really slacked off. I acknowledge it! I take the blame for it! So what was I doing? Honestly, it's kind of pathetic. I was upgrading my jailbroken iPhone to the new ios 5. I ran into a couple of errors and kept having to do the jailbreak over and over and over. Blah. But I'm back! (and for good!)

The photo above was taken by Tim, but it's of the new ampersand I bought! It was made by Edie's Lab, found on Etsy. They make a ton of these beautiful wooden letters. Gosh I love them all! Needless to say, I'm very please with the newest addition.

We've been all sorts of busy. We saw Wild Flag on Saturday night in Athens at the 40 Watt Club. If you don't know who Wild Flag is, you might know who Carrie Brownstein is - the lead lady of the comedy show Portlandia. She's one of the singers/guitarists for Wild Flag. They rocked out! It was a glorious show. Amazing girl rock at its finest. Totally check them out.

Btw, I'm gushing over all the love around here on Glass and Sable. You folks are so nice! ♥

letterpress love.
