say hello to PEEKABOO COLLECTIVE!
I'm super excited to post today, it's a special one for me, it's the launch of my latest and greatest project called Peekaboo Collective, a collection of organic & handmade products for children and grown-ups alike!
Sprouted from an idea planted in the Spring of 2010, myself and my two partners, Shelly Kuzniarek—a designer and letterpress wizard and Jodi Wroblewski—a designer and silk screen master, have decided to combine efforts to make all of our skill sets of illustration, design and printing more powerful through teamwork.
Although we are each accomplished on our own as designers and makers, together we are hoping to develop ideas further and push past the formulaic and almost expected designs that are so often seen for babies and toddlers. We draw inspiration from a variety of sources, but mostly from nature and the little ones that surround us.
We hope you enjoy our eco efforts and can't wait to show you what else we have in store!
until I can get all my banners and links up on the blog, check out our etsy shop and there are more photos here.

The Feedback Loop Notebook Project
check out this really cool pro bono project created to benefit youth all over the country.
Twenty-five leading letterpress printers were asked to create fifty unique notebooks. They could do whatever they wanted. Their limited edition books will be sold on Felt & Wire Shop, in a special storefront, with 100% of the proceeds going to Design Ignites Change, to support their School: by Design youth mentorship program.
Also a catalyst for change, Mohawk Fine Papers donated the paper; and the printers could pick any stock they wanted from the Mohawk Loop paper line. Our youth will be in control someday so lets guide them in the right direction.
