Pinterest Find of the Week: Mary Kate McDevitt
Alright, guys.
As has been the routine lately, this week's Pinterest Find of the Week is a tad behind schedule. Things have been pretty busy at my day job, and I'm simply exhausted by the time I get home. I know, I know- excuses, excuses. Anyway, let's get this thing rolling!
This week, I chose to feature Mary Kate McDevitt, who is an illustrator currently located in Portland, Oregon. She also just so happens to be phenomenally talented at hand-lettering. I've come across

BIRTHDAY, HAPPY, YAY!!!
I'll just get this out of the way, and say IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!
HOORAY!
Usually, in years past, I haven't gotten too excited about it because it generally ended up being a letdown. This year, however, I took the day off of work (great start with that!), and have made weekend plans with some close friends.
In the past, every year on my birthday I waited for the flood of Facebook notifications and text messages to come in throughout the day. In the years after I graduated co

Pinterest Find of the Week: Zeus Jones
Alex Register, from my previous post, is a local artist to the Twin Cities area. He works with Zeus Jones, a creative agency located in Minneapolis (literally blocks from my apartment, actually!) that centers around modern branding. I did a little digging through their website, and I loved it.
All of it.
With my getting reacquainted to the world of design, it is really refreshing to see what kind of agencies are out there. And for this one to be so close is pretty amazing.

Pinterest Find of the Week: Alex Register
Alright, we're back at it. After a lengthy bout of laziness and some employment rejection (hooray... :/ ), we are back at it with the Pinterest Find of the Week. Since I didn't do one last week, this one just so happened to work out to split into two lovely posts. Here we go!
So I did some perusing today, and came across this pin, by designer Alex Register: I liked the retro kind of vibe it was giving off, and the simple, clean design style. As usual, I clicked through to A

Fourth of July
Today is July 4th.
To most Americans, it's Independence Day or the 4th of July.
To me, it's the best holiday ever.
I've always loved this time of year, and even today it remains one of my favorites. I think it's a great time to be patriotic and proud of what this country has become, and really, I just absolutely love fireworks. The past few years I haven't been able to get the chance to see as many of them, but it's always something I enjoy watching. You just lay back in

Pinterest Find of the Week: Helen Dardik
Go figure.
While I was nice and ambitious last week, this week I super-slacked off. I didn't have time to search through the treasure trove of pins this week, so I figured I'd look back on some of the things I already pinned. Give them a second chance and all. Generous. ...Right? ;)
Anyway, here's this week's Pinterest Find of the (Last) Week.
Looking through my earlier pins, my eyes stopped on this one of a pattern by Helen Dardik, that I had discovered a few weeks ago
