UPPERCASE : Stationery Around The World (Yay!)

Issue 17 of UPPERCASE came out recently which was rather exciting for two reasons: One, it's an entire issue dedicated to stationery (swoon!). And two, I contributed to it! I wrote a little piece on South Korean stationery for the 'around the world' feature, and took a bunch of photos of my (ever growing) stationery stash! Yay! 

UPPERCASE is one of my absolute favourite magazines. It's always full of ace things made by interesting and inspiring people, and it's beautifully produced - the paper stock (a magazine needs to feel good in your hands, don't you think?), the fonts, the layouts.  So I was kind of overjoyed to be asked to contribute something. It was also a good reminder that I should get involved more often - it really is a magazine that thrives on the input of their readers. Maybe you might want to participate too? 

I'm yet to get my hands on a copy but from all the previews I've seen it looks like a pretty amazing issue (there's a copy waiting for me when I head to Melbourne later this month, can't wait to see it!). You can read a bit more about the issue here. Oh, and if you're looking to subscribe or renew I have a code for $10 off - just get in touch and I'll pass it on.

Inside Out : Yay!

One of my absolute favourite magazines in the whole wide world is Inside Out. It's full of gorgeous interiors and arty crafty people, and it always manages to strike the perfect balance between inspiring and doable. I've been reading it for years and it was one of the few survivors when I was culling my (many) magazine subscriptions last year...

...So you can imagine how ridiculously excited I am to have Good Things* mentioned in the April issue, in the '6 blogs to bookmark' section! Hooray! Hurrah! Yippee! Thank you Inside Out! And thank you My Poppet for letting me know via Instagram!

ps. The husband nearly fell on the floor when he saw the 'busy' bit. This was not helped by the fact that he'd just popped home at midday (a quick breather in between a 7am and 7pm meeting) and found me still in my pyjamas. 

ps. Just to clarify - whilst I may have been in my pyjamas, I hadn't just got out of bed. I'd been terribly busy all morning, tweeting and Instagraming and figuring out how I could get to the ProBlogger Training Event this year. I think I may have paid a bill too...so...

ps. Also - doesn't the cover look gorgeous? That rug! Can't wait for my copy to make its way to Seoul!
