I Heart Airmail

I do I do. It just brings about this sense of nostalgia. Of a time lost. A time when the letter was king and email was unheard of (eek!) It's so romantic and it warms my heart to see it making a comeback around town. 

Check out these awesome envelopes! I can't get enough of the red and blue striped edges!

The more postage the better to complete the look!

Don't you just want to go write a letter now? I do! I smell Holiday card ideas.

This new fangled thing they call blogging...

Hello World. That's being a bit presumptuous, as we're sure only a handful of people will ever actually read this, but none the less we are thinking bigger than ourselves today. So, let us begin again.

Hello world! This time with enthusiasm. Thanks for visiting the recently redesigned (formerly non-existent) milk+honey designers blog.

So what's going on here you ask. What kind of blog is this exactly? Well... here's the truth. We have no idea how to be "bloggers". You know the really fantastic kind, who keep up on all the current events, and update daily on the really important stuff in their industry like the slow but evident extinction of the bumble bee, or the sky rocketing price of wool in western Europe, the latest gluten free foods, or the most effective way to rid free radicals from your skin. Nope. Not us. We're not even really sure if we have enough things to fill a blog.

Here is what we do know. We know that combined we spend a gazillion hours a week cruising the Internet, looking at everything from paper goods to sewing patterns, from floral arrangements to images of weddings we've never been to (staring people we've never met). We love love love all things pretty, paper, fabric, and fabulous. We're young reletively speaking, newly married Laura one month, Sandi three years and as we set out to establish our selves, our homes, and our style we're looking for a little company.

By trade we are designers... graphic designers... mostly invitations and paper goods, but it's hard not to dip our toes in a bit of everything else. This is a showcase of that everything else. Of things we can't get enough of. Of inspiration. Of admiration. A virtual junk drawer of sorts.

So welcome. We hope you stay.
