Yellow Submarine






Introducing the TeaSub. I'm an avid tea drinker, so when I discovered this cute little thing I had to share. The TeaSub submerges tea leaves to the bottom of your cup, creating the perfect infusion of your favorite brew! Cute as hell!

Helvetica Cookie Cutters




Clearly anything Helvetica will make me melt. Beverly Hsu has combined her love for baking and typography and has come up with this crazy beautiful Helvetica cookie cutter set. Unfortunately they are not up for sale YET!


I don't bake, but if these ever do go on sale, I will be the new Betty Crocker! How fun would it be if they also came out with a Bodoni set? Now I'm just teasing myself. YUM!

NEIGE






I've been walking by the SAQ and noticing the window displays featuring Neige - Local made Ice wine in Quebec. Designed by Chez Valois they used a clean and minimalist design based on a snowflake pattern which is how the product is made. The extreme cold winter temperatures needed to produce the concentration of sugars for its creation.


At least we get one good thing from our horrible winters. Beautifully designed Ice Wine. Never tried it, but I hope it tastes as good as it looks.

Got Twitter?




If any of you have twitter, you can now follow me @cmykinky 


         

Registered.




Dear friends and fellow readers,


I am very happy to announce that I have FINALLY gotten around to registering my web domain, and officially reserved myself a spot on the world wide web. This blog (peace, love & Helvetica) serves as a place in between until my website is up. The reason it took me so long to register, was that I didn't want to end up being stuck with a domain I did not like. I will be keeping you posted with updates and process, as this is a very exciting time for me.


oh right, the website is: www.thecmykinky.com


It will include my work, a blog just like this one including more articles and cool finds, along with a lot of other exciting things I'd like to keep a surprise until the launch. So keep your eyes and ears open, 2010 is the year of cmykinky!


Is there anything you would like to read about in particular on a design+art blog? Let me know and I just might make it into one of my first design articles on my website.
