my love for you.

tofurkey & tagged.

Kelly from Little Paper Planes tagged me on her bloggy to write 5 'unimportant things' that make me happy. That seems easy enough and fun!

Twitter. Because I love that the conversation never stops...and anything that builds community makes me feel connected and delighted.
The genius play list on my Itunes. Anything that brings more music into my life easily is just plan rad.
Animated holiday specials. What could be better and more unimportant than sitting in front of a television?
Blush. I just bought some blush at MAC and I feel like it's the best remedy for gray, cold days...a little rosy, and I'm good to go!
Hot apple cider. Yum!

What are your favorite unimportant things that make you happy? I hope for those of you that are here in the States that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'll be back next week with a great q&a from Kate Bingaman Burt, a studio visit with Daniel Szymanowski and some super, great art, until then be safe, warm, happy and keep it real. love. meighan

will bryant: i made this for you.

Awww, one of my very favorite internet friends Will Bryant has just published a book entitled I MADE THIS FOR YOU. In this book you'll find Will's signature come on get happy colors, doodles, drawings and hand lettered fonts. This would be a perfect holiday gift for you! Really. There are two choices of purchase...You can purchase the book through Lulu (the book's publisher) or you can purchase a limited edition through Will and get a smattering of goodness which includes: a medal, buttons, a moo card and 2 letter pressed/screen printed posters along with Will's very own hand drawn doodles and signature on the very book itself. Hmmm, the math seems pretty easy to me. Good going Will!

laurel hill.

A few weeks back I saw a beautiful bison necklace on the front page of etsy. I checked out the shop of Laurel Hill and immediately fell in love with all of her pieces. I'm not sure what it is about banners, but I love them. What's more is, it's hard to not love banner jewelry that you can have your very own thoughts, words and sayings transcribed by the artist. Laurel's jewelry has a beautiful patina that gives her work an antiquated vibe. As if you needed more reasons to love Laurel's pieces, they can be layered and worn together. Perfect.

joe ryckebosch: new work on etsy.

Joe Ryckebosch has a bunch of work in his etsy shop that I am coveting big time. I wrote about Joe in October, very recently, but I had to post this work today. I love it. I wish Santa was real, these pieces would be first on my list.

kevin cyr print at 20x200.

I was so excited to see Kevin Cyr has a limited print available today at 20x200. Kevin's paintings are so fresh, they're like the 2.0 version of graffiti. You can read a q&a Kevin did last year for the blog here. But before you do, hit 20x200 that print won't last long.
