It sounds like Boston terriers Duke and Daisy are responsible for their mum Stitchy Witchy Designs whipping up these whimsical designs on fabric. Apparently, while making bags, purses, aprons, pillows and more Duke and Daisy sit by, mostly snoring on her lap and I can’t think of a better way to be inspired to create [...]

The sheer cuteness of African Grey‘s stationery is a great choice to brighten someone’s day. Each hand-drawn piece is made to order, then printed using nothing other than environmentally-friendly papers and envelopes. With so many whimsical and adorable little faces, how could you resist.
