The Year Ahead – Calendars, Part 2
I still haven’t made my all-important office calendar purchase decision. Here are more options I’m considering, photographed at last year’s National Stationery Show (with, again, apologies for the poor image quality)…. Benjamin Paul Benjamin Paul’s illustrations and letterpress really do deserve the word “exquisite,” and their 2014 Edibles Letterpress Calendar is a gorgeous display of […]
The Year Ahead – Calendars, Part 1
Well, I’m finally getting around to choosing my office calendar for 2014, and I have to admit, I’m struggling. Wall calendars, desk calendars, perpetual calendars—the options are both numerous and beautiful. Here are just some of the calendars I discovered this year at the National Stationery Show.

Which year is this?
So, if you’re anything like me, and the holidays passed in a verging-on-chaos jam-packed celebratory to-do list sort of way, and you’re sitting there feeling slightly dazed and genuinely confused, wondering to yourself “Just what exactly happened to 2013?” And, if your holidays had the added benefit of the unexpected, in the form of, say, […]
Christmas Cards 3 – Ho, Ho, Ho!
Seasonal sniffles, snow, and scheduling have all invaded the S’Wicked household, recently, so I haven’t been able to post nearly as often as I’d like.

December 1st Approaches…Time for Advent Calendar Fun
It’s really, really hard (and somewhat terrifying) to think that December first is only four days away. Meep! And, while the idea of December strikes some fear into my seriously-unprepared-for-the-holidays heart, it also means that it’s—yippee!—time to open the first door on the Advent calendar. Haven’t had time to get yours, yet? You still have […]
S’Clusive! Interview with Kim Fox of Worker Bird
Those of you who know Kim Fox from L2 Design Collective, may not be familiar with her super-cool alter-ego as Worker Bird, creator of things funky and fabulous. Her creations include, most recently, a really spectacular line of signs featuring reclaimed wood, vintage tins, and lots (and lots and lots and lots) of tiny nails. […]
Thanksgiving Greetings
In one of those delicious little ironies, my three biggest work deadlines of the year fall within the same two weeks. And, those two weeks fall right smack in the middle of the holiday season. So, while I’m psyched about the work, it does mean I haven’t been posting much, lately. (Next year, I’ll put […]
