Five faves

We've been really busy over here at Pip Emma HQ, but I'll spare you the excuses regarding our absence and skip right to...

FIVE FAVES (playing along with the fabulously named, Pip):




1. Locals who letter press. How can you not love the work of Ruby Victoria? She also admits she's a hoarder of stuff. Us too, us too. (The image above is from Ruby Victoria's blog)

2. Fonts. We love type. It's the foundation of great design, I reckon.

3. Making animal masks out of felt for big people and little people.

4. Ted Talks. Inspiring talks by fabulous people about interesting things. For free.

5. Saving our local radio. It's not so good that Edge Radio is in trouble but you can help by signing the petition or becoming a supporter. Or both!

Five things...

Playing along with the other Pip!



1. The colour palette in the above image makes me so happy. Via Hannah and Landon.

2. Clients from Hell, schadenfreude and self-righteousness all wrapped up in one very amusing tumblr.

3. Hair simultaneously attracts me and freaks me out a little. I find myself drawing it a lot.

4. Roller derby has taken over my life. I play with the Convict City Rollers and I'm feeling fit as hell and ready for anything!

5. I'm currently reading the Sookie Stackhouse series. It's almost a guilty pleasure and I'm loving letting myself fall completely into a fantasy world before I drift off to sleep.

WE Love Five Faves - The Moon

Five faves playing along with Pip

1.

I don't really care how boring our moon really is, from where I stare its always rather beautiful.

2. Paper Moon Photo's are just so darling, so I made a collection here and if you need more check out our Favorites

4. I've seen the 1973 film Paper Moon starring Ryan O'Neal and his daughter Tatum nearly one billion times (If you haven't you're in for a super treat, its just really great).

5. And of course Sarah Moon, "I'm the Moon", Moonface was rather lovely, the 'Radiator Girl' in Lynch's Eraserhead was kind of moony, And anyway The Moon...

Five faves!

It's my turn to type out the five faves this week. Hooray!

1. Music - it's been a great weekend for music in Hobart. Notably the gentlemanly and wonderful Jandek and the fun and sweaty UV Race

2. Missed Connections - I love reading personal ads and imagining who wrote them, so naturally, I love this.

3. Spite Houses

4. Sunshine & Grease

5. Going to the farm gate market every Sunday ( for Hobartians - corner of Melville and Elizabeth Streets, every Sunday morning)
