Living with Type

The boxes with the button closure have always been one of my favorite images from Victoria magazine. The boxes are natural, there is string and type involved and there is more than one. The Advent Calender uses vintage, natural in a limited color selection on tags with type. There were more images from this issue of the old Victoria on Sarah Klassen / Haute Design.

Kaki on white, they even put a period after the number!

Packaging

 How fun everything looks with the same packaging!
 

A wonderful little wreath that would be a graceful addition to any of the packages above.

Double ribbons are always a nice look, this look would be a great addition to the Metalic Christmas post

A limited color pallet is always a must.

The silver bells and berries are nice embellishments on the black and white print papers. The white package appears to have the excess paper folded on top. I am not that neat of a wrapper to have all the excess work out that well

Natural colored boxes with string, twigs always a favorite

 Nice simple look with a Christmas post card and glass garland.

What a delight to find an article from the old Victoria scanned on Sarah Klassen / Haute Design. Folding paper on a package has always been a favorite and with a touch of costume jewelry who could go wrong?

The embellishments in the Metallic Christmas II post made me think of Jette Froleich

whom I discovered in one of the Quest Magazines

 

  

Metalic Christmas II

This looks like an angel made of wire covered with a tubing of fabric.

All the little embellishments remind me of my friend Anne from Hearts and Hands

Dots are more my favorite than stripes. This is a layout Amica magazine found on Habitually Chic. Red, black and white are always a dynamic graphic and these shots are not exception.

Stripes on Shoes
