Happy Friday!!

I wish you a very very happy weekend and I leave you with this great photo.

**MAV**



If I were to list a few fellow bloggers/artists  who have inspired me and shaped the way I think and look at things, Maria will certainly be at the top of the list.  I'm pretty sure you've heard the news about her lovely blog.  I will miss her amazing space but I am sure her journey doesn't end here. 

Thanks for the inspiration MAV!

The colors of Bangkok ..on film





The day after I got back from Chicago, I took a walk around town and drove to the nearest beach town with my wonderful AE-1 and I remembered how much I love my city.

Scenery Resort



I've moved back to Bangkok about a week ago. I love the city but I find myself looking forward to getting out of town.

This resort in Ratchaburi (about 2 hours from Bangkok) just got me.

Riya



I have a thing for pastel colors, especially when they come in small and adorable pieces like those above.
My colleague's sister owns this wonderful shop and she has such a sweet collection of cupcakes, wedding cakes, favors, and many more.

Bellamuse




Yes, I am still thinking about the card!
I bought this card from a small stationery shop in Pittsburgh some years ago and that's how I got to know Bellamuse.
I love their simplicity and great choices of typography.

Delicious Design League

Delicious Design League also makes such cool posters.
This one is my favorite..pretty icons and muted colors...I'm simply smitten.

I'm thinking screen printing, I'm thinking Jason Munn





Given my deep deep love for screen printing. I think I am very likely to make a screen printed wedding invites.
But who knows, letterpress is so tempting too. 

I am looking beyond the wedding invitation category for an inspiration. I love these simple icons on Jason Munn's posters.
I think he's amazing.

Something exciting

My boyfriend and I got engaged last week. Just the day before we left for Japan.
Our Japan trip was a blast and I will post about it very soon, but now I have so many things to be excited about

-The theme of our wedding
-The venue
-The dress!
-The invitations!!!
-The favors and gifts
_The cake!

It feels good to be a bride-to-be :) I especially can't stop thinking about the invitations!! I will share my obsession on this space in the coming months.

The ones we love




There's so much love involved in this amazing project.
This is what happens when you take photos of people who mean the most to you.
Love and emotion really did shine through.

Proud Mary



These are already on my christmas wish list.
More goodies here.




Little things




The day after thanksgiving I took a walk in a garden and found this little red berry.
Little things, especially round things like polka dots always make me happy.
There is something calming about their round shapes. 
And when it comes to polka dots, no one does it better than Lisa Stickley
Her random placement of these dots seem just right to me.
Happy monday to you!!
