Elephantine

Enjoy any good books lately? Here's four I've recently read and would recommend: a dystopian novel, a strange and luminous collection of short stories, and two books for writers: the first because it contains a superb collection of excerpts, and the second for all of its advice from great writers. Snippets from the four books: 1. 2. 3. 4.

Dear Lizzy MadeByGirl A CUP OF JO Twig & Thistle I’m so excited to share my Oscar printables for this year! I wasn’t sure if I was even going to do them but I’ve been getting a ton of requests for them and I got really excited about updating the set. The theme this year is black, white, gold and kraft paper. I know, super original, but I think the design is a playful mix of formal and slightly rustic hints. This year’s entry contains invites, paper oscar statuettes, popcorn boxes, drink tags and of course ballots; everything you need to throw a red carpet party in style! OSCAR INVITATIONThis simple invite gets some glamour when paired with a black string & button envelope. PAPER OSCAR STATUETTES I didn’t know if this idea was going to work but I knew I wanted to create a three-dimentional form of the oscar somehow for the decorations and table setting. POPCORN BOXES What movie night would be complete without popcorn? DRINK TAGS / PLACE CARDS These simple tags play double-duty as both drink tags and place cards at a table setting.
