WHOA!

October has been a little crazy for us in DP land.

We had workshops and exhibitions with Knitty Gritty Loopy, exhibition organising for Japan, an art/ food collaboration with sweetness and all of this while we were re-locating our house and studio....WHOA....I feel we can now breathe a little and start blogging again!

I will post photos tonight...and we are very excited about our milk carton paper making wk-shop collaboration with the lovely Lox +Savvy....stay tuned!

It was a busy busy amazing past week. We have been finishing off wedding invites, binding zine No2, making alphabet cards for the pop-up shop and gathering DP treats for the COFA spring fair. WHOA....I feel I can finally BREATHE!

Our spring blossom cards and alphabet palm cards had their debut at the spring fair and the pop-up shop. Thanks for all the visits!

p.s. there was a lovely write up about the pop-up shop here.

p.p.s. dp big cartel store is open! You can purchase cards through our store or here.

an exciting something...

I am working on a little something for a special something!

The Alphabet Pop-Up Co-Op at Object Gallery.

I am making special little keepsake palm cards! They will be on display and for sale from Friday 3rd Sept~ Sunday 5th Sept at Object gallery. (Brought to you by the original Pop-Up Co-Op shop that began in Bowral.)

Stay tuned for visuals and updates onto DP shop!

the sign the sign the sign!

I was lucky enough to have sweetness supply pastel coloured marshmallow treats for my opening. In exchange I created an artwork and a font to be used for a 'larder' shelf sign and price tags for the store...(hand painted watercolour onto 850gsm paper) here is a sneak peak!

This is our first attempt in creating a font. I hand wrote the letters and Taka used 'font forge' to develop them...we will soon use this font on the yumitakahashi.com.au web page.

p.s. for those who don't know what a 'larder' is(I didn't know at first!), it is a large cupboard for storing food!
