Do you guys ever find yourself matching your loves ones by accident?

I'm a sucker for simple, yet unique, jewelry. Irene, from Bloesem, recently launched a new collection for kids {and adults with a youthful spirit!} called Bloesem Wears. And fitting with her aesthetic that you get a clear sense of from her blog, I'm loving the mix of kid-like materials with sophisticated beads and pops of neon! — Joy
As Ruby gets older, it's fun to think about all the places we'll go together as a family. So, I'm loving these ZigZag City Guides for kids. The two characters, Zig and Zag, guide your child through the city {in this case, Rome} and teach words and phrases in Italian, various sights to see, and let them reflect on what they experience. The fun illustrations, the foldout map, and the overall format seems so fun and useful! — Joy
Until I became a mom myself, I never realized how hard it is to take care of another human while also working or having your own business. Both things are a ton of work in themselves, so to mix the two takes a lot of planning, organization, delegating, multi-tasking, and a whole bunch of other things that I have yet to figure out myself. My friend {and co-author of Creative, Inc.}, Meg Mateo Ilasco just released her third book in the Inc. series which she co-wrote with Cat Seto called Mom, Inc. I loved Meg's post the other day on Design*Sponge about motherhood and business...it's so honest and so true. And, I'm thrilled to share the news of their new book!
To me, it's a must for any mom, business owner, or anyone who eventually wants to be a mom and business owner. Mom, Inc. is full of interviews from other moms in the creative world and covers various types of businesses including: freelancing, having a shop, starting a blog, and more. Also, how cute is Cat in their book trailer above? If you're in LA or NY, you can see details on their next book signing right here... — Joy
My friend Lisa Wong Jackson from Good on Paper recently threw the cutest round themed birthday party for her 2-year-old son, Lucas. She always creates the best family Christmas cards and is the best at the sweet, yet graphic, details to the parties she throws. So, I had to share Luca's recent birthday because I loved the simplicity of the theme and how she made it perfectly fit a young child's birthday while also being fun for the adults too...
Held in a local park, Luca's birthday was complete with all round foods that kids love, balls and toys a plenty, as well as a snow cone truck {um, I want that at MY party!}. He had a ton of fun running and playing and even managed to lose his pants by the end of the day...now that's a good party if you ask me! — Joy
