Paper beats rock and scissors with Daisy P.’s pretty paper for kids.

Stationery is not just for the young-at-heart.  Those in their wee years know the value of pretty paper too thanks to your good taste and coaching.  Daisy P knows this and (thankfully) has created an entire line of cool, kid-friendly designs. Available at www.daisyprincesspaperie.com

For the young party animal there are imprintables of all ilk – seascapes, diamonds, lattice and spunky zoo animals, folding cards of flowers and cars – that transform dates and times into magical numbers.

Birth announcements belong on whimsical die-cut cards of elephants or the classic – with a fun twist – photo cards.  Either way, your news always looks good.

Shop Daisy P’s darling imprintable kid invites online at paperbuzz.com and bee-invited.net
Playdates are made, and kept, by sharing crafty calling cards bearing your name and number.  The bright cards also double as enclosure cards for the petit traditionalist. Available at www.daisyprincesspaperie.com

And for the Thank you notes?  Well, just about any of their designs will do.  Good manners begins at an early age! Available at www.daisyprincesspaperie.com

And ode – actually a love list – to summer

Summer’s comin.’ And with it sweet tea (even if it’s in your vodka), sunscreen (the natural kind that hopefully still has a beachy smell), walking over driving, swimsuits, color (in the South it never left), heat, heat and more heat, summer hours (everyone has them), mental photographs, pen pals, pedicures that are seen, blockbuster films you may/may not catch, thunderstorms, scratching “learning to grill” off your to-do list, a new playlist dedicated to the season, gladiator sandals, umbrellas for shine not rain, poppycock on the beach, drinking from straws, convertibles (if you’re lucky), welcome shade, scooter rides just because, a rainbow of racerback tanks, boys in flops, an ever-present smile.

Wanderlust . . .

Oh I have it alright, but not as swanky a most I suspect . . .I need, I want to revisit The World’s Largest Totem Pole in Foyil, Oklahoma and the Garden of Eden in Lucas, Kansas.

New York state of mind.

Nothing feeds the soul – my soul – like the City.  Not just any city, but The City, as in New York, New York.  The energy, the lights, the pace and the endless options including eggs at 4:30, a movie at midnight, coffee carts that serve HOT coffee, $10 manicures that last, and public transportation you can count on.  Love it.

I just spent three days there dashing in-and-out of meetings and now feel re-energized and inspired.  Ready to face the day, the economy (OK, almost), the red wall in my office and the false sense of cuteness I’m bound to suffer at some point today.

Thank you New York.

Our favorite things too!

We just adore Molly at My Favorite Things blog!  Talk about someone with an eye for style and a way with words, it’s her!  So, naturally we’re thrilled that she featured Daisy P’s Fabnotes and Notepads on her super-cool blog today!  The Fabnotes + notepads are kind of an obsession around the office now.  Their colors and designs are gorgeous for spring and fit-ever-so-perfectly in our spring handbags (we finally made the change from our larger, darker winter ones) for our running list of to-do’s, to-see’s and to-read’s. 

Kisses to Molly!  And to you: stock up on our Fabnotes + Notepads; they might go quickly now that all of the cool peeps know!
