Urbanstax
So I set up a new etsy store where I stock 'remixed' items. It is called Urbanstax. I enjoy making new things out of old so this will feature paper goods made out of 'repurposed' paper, shopper bags made out of old plastic bags, and so on. Hopefully the shop will evolve as I go on. Just my version of doing the green thing.
I have started off with a collection of envelopes featuring Danish urban design strategy. They are fun because the are maps/plans on the outside and text on the inside. Some of the text talks about water strategy, conservation of old buildings, developing of green parks and so on. I like that each one is of the same place but slightly different because it is talking about another strategy.
They are mainly in a bold but simple graphic style in blue, white, blue and grey. A few of them are brighter colours.
Have a look, give me your thoughts. http://www.urbanstax.etsy.com
A big thank you to Rekindled for doing a feature on Urbanstax and the envelopes. Do stop by her blog and say hello.
Oh yeah, have a great easter weekend too!

Orange
So this is a bit of laziness on my part. Just didn't have anything for 'O' so I dug into the archives and retrieved an Etsy Frontpage that I made it onto last December thanks to riyzedesignz.
You can guess the theme was.......Orange! It was great publicity and the scarflette got sold shortly after.
I am not even sure I am that great a fan of the colour but once in a while, it just works for me. I prefer the derivatives; burnt orange, rust etc. Are you a fan of Orange? Would love to hear your comments.
On another note, Urbanknit now has a facebook group so if you would like to be kept informed about events, new items, exciting news or are just a fan then do join urbanknit on facebook
thanks for reading!
