Virtual visit- Balenciaga via NYPL

    


Jpeg&svc

I am often visiting the New York Public Library website. I find it tremendously valuable in many ways. It is a creative compendium of media. I like to look up digital images that can be inspirational for whatever I am thinking about for the day. Retro is always in stye and I think we all can learn something from the past. This is especially true for fashion. Well made clothing rules follow tried and true designs. The photo above from Andre Studios as part of a collection of sketches that can be found on the NYPL site in collaboration with the Fashion Institute of Technology is truly a wonderful public gift-free-priceless!

Take a look for yourself! Print out one or more and hang them! Together they can form a lovely decoration stylishly hung on a wall. 

Another cool wall suggestion *
These lovely letters came from the Marie Claire idees website. Print them out, gratis, of course-um, for non-french speaking, that's free! And hang them on your wall-


Lettre M de l'abécédaire de mercière

Lettre A de l'abécédaire de mercière

Lettre K de l'abécédaire de mercière

Lettre E de l'abécédaire de mercière

    
Then you can cover them with a plastic or vinyl sleeve, apply some double stick tape and voila!
It's instant decor art!

Who wants to get SLiCED?



I just noticed this enytry from the side bar on my blog site. Moda creates wonderful fabrics for the quilter and crafter. I think that "SLiCED" is such a fabulous way to get into the spirit of the fun competitiveness that is exploding on television. Why not, then, the internet? I will be tuned in... maybe an audition too!
