phone wallpapers

5 July 2013

I know I shared some desktop wallpapers for June for Friday Favorites only just a couple of weeks ago. But I stumbled upon these free graphic phone wallpapers on Pinterest during the week and they were too awesome not to share!

Click on the image or go here for the link to download these.

All of these are so lovely and well-designed that I’m pretty much spoiled for choice as to which one I should have on my phone. Right now, I have the sunshine-y yellow lemons of no. 16 as my wallpaper – bright, happy and cheery, just perfect for summer. But I think I might just change it up every couple of days so I get to enjoy all my favorites (:

Free AND pretty phone wallpapers – what’s not to love?

Happy Friday! And happy belated Fourth of July to my American readers! (:

Life is often full and busy. But I like to take time to enjoy some of my favorite things. So Friday Favorite is a weekly series where I share my favorite(s) for the week. Check out my other Friday Favorites here.

Friday favorite no. 006 // urbanic paper blog

28 June 2013

My favorite this week is the Urbanic Paper blog. Complete with a brand new look, this super cute blog is full of inspiration and plenty of pretty paper things – which I absolutely adore. They also have lots of inspiring designs in their pop-up shop.

As a girl who loves paper and snail mail, this blog fits the bill to a tee – perfect for being inspired over this weekend.

Happy Friday!

Friday favorite no. 005 // super fast class – handwriting

21 June 2013

While scrolling through my twitter feed last week, I came across a link to this video by Kristina Werner, which left me pretty inspired.

Growing up, I didn’t always have the nicest handwriting and I was constantly in envy of the girls in class whose cute handwriting made me wish I wrote better. As I got older, my handwriting became a little bit better and I started actually liking my writing. But somewhere, somehow, this writing of mine started getting all scribbly and messy again and now I don’t like it so much anymore.

I must say, with all the influx of technology nowadays, maybe all the time I spend typing on my computer and scrolling through my smartphone doesn’t give me much opportunity to practice writing with a pen (or pencil) anymore. So hmm, maybe technology is all to blame.

Still, I really hope that I get back to the phase of having better writing and liking my handwriting again.

But until then, I’ll just have to keep practicing, take every opportunity I have to use a pen to practice and try to make this handwriting as good I can get it.

I think I might just be busy practicing this weekend. Happy Friday!

Friday favorite no. 004 // june desktop wallpapers

14 June 2013

It’s pretty crazy to think that June is already halfway through. And before you know it, July will be here! And while this favorite may be about two weeks late (considering it’s for the month of June), there’s still half of June left to enjoy these free desktop wallpapers.

There are several fun (and free) wallpapers here! I currently have the popsicle one from Design Love Fest as my laptop wallpaper. Too cute.

Such a fun way to kick-start the weekend. Happy Friday!

Friday favorite no. 003 // kinder happy hippo

7 June 2013

This week’s favorite is Kinder Bueno. And to be sure, it’s not just any biscuit; it’s all the creamy hazelnut goodness that is kinder bueno, shaped in an almost-too-cute-to-be-eaten hippo.

Ever since childhood, Kinder Bueno has been a favorite. So this Kinder Happy Hippo kinda takes the cake. Or biscuit.

Too good + too cute. ‘Nuff said.

Kinder bueno, you made this week really good (:

Friday favorite no. 002 // instant photos

31 May 2013

I may be a little late jumping onto the instant photo bandwagon. But I finally decided to spend my birthday money on this Fujifilm Instax 25. AND I LOVE IT.

Not being sure of what you’re going to get and watching the film develop before your very eyes right after you take the photo is part of the thrill + novelty of having an instant camera.

I already love the little collection of instant photos that I’ve since amassed and I can’t wait to see how it grows!

Happy Friday!

Friday favorite no. 001 // Make Someone Happy by Oh Joy!

24 May 2013

Each Friday, I’ll share with you my favorite(s) for that week. Or at least that’s the plan.

This week, my favorite is Oh Joy’s Make Someone Happy video series.

I’ve been wanting to share this mini video series by Oh Joy!. There are already a handful of videos in this Make Someone Happy series. But I love the concept behind it of brightening up someone’s day, even if it’s just in a really small way. So much love and inspiration in just a few minutes. If you have the time, watch these videos and maybe go out and make someone happy!

Trying out some of these simple yet inspiring things are one of my favorite parts about this series. So over the past weekend, I printed a couple of Oh Joy’s ad lib letter from video no. 5 and wrote one to every single person in my family. ‘Twas so fun just to surprise them with something out of the blue. Because life is made up of little moments like that.

Here’s to Friday and making someone happy today!
