DIY Printable 2012 Wall Calendars

Adele {modernemotive} — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 15:42:17 +0000

My 2012 Calendars are here. Like my Holiday line, I went the DIY printable route this year. So, if you wanted to stuff some stockings with calendars (everyone needs a calendar right), just print as many as you need.

First up, the 2012 Wall Agenda version. There’s spots to fill in birthdays, appointments and other events. If an event moves or you make a few mistakes, simply print another copy.

And last but not least, the simple Wall version. Pin copies to your office bulletin board to brighten it up. Or slip a copy into your daily notebook.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone. The weather is shaping up to be great here so I plan on spending as many hours outdoors as possible. I have been chained to my desk for weeks. Time for some R’n’R!Popular Posts:

DIY Printable Holiday Line 2011

Adele {modernemotive} — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 21:00:01 +0000

Just the other day, my friend Julie reminded me on Twitter that the Holidays are only 5 weeks away. Talk about a kick up the arse as I’m not even close to ready. My days seem jam packed lately and before I know it, it’s bedtime. Each day I am crossing stuff of my to-do list, yet it doesn’t seem to be getting any smaller. Anyway, I digress…

One of the things scratched off my to-do list is the official (and last!) ME holiday line. I went a different route this year and made the entire collection as printables. I know many of us leave things until last minute (hello procrastination!) so no more counting how many cards/tags you need to order, just print off as needed. Check it out!

What about you? Feeling ready for the Holidays? Nope!Popular Posts:

Shop Update: Get Your Shit Together Notepad

Adele {modernemotive} — Tue, 03 May 2011 15:38:03 +0000

Hello friends, I’m happy to share my new notepad is now officially available. As you can see, this notepad delivers a wee bit of sass and I do hope you appreciate it’s cheekiness. I did consider being a little bit more PG and going with SH*T over SHIT instead but well, sometimes we have to tell it like it is right?

This notepad is available as a single unit but I’m also offering it as a bundle of 3 (great for gifting) with a 10% discount.

So, what do you think?Popular Posts:

Seconds

Adele {modernemotive} — Thu, 03 Mar 2011 15:16:42 +0000

A few week ago while doing my notepad inventory, I noticed a few of my Daily Chores notepads were not cut accurately. As you can see from the photo, the right margin is were the cutting error occurred. So, I’m selling them off as seconds for only $6.30 (40% off) + shipping.

A few have already been snapped up, so if you’d like to grab one simply pop me a note on Etsy with the color you’d like (only pink and orange available) and I’ll give you a coupon code to use.

Happy March!Popular Posts:

Stripe Obsessed

Adele {modernemotive} — Mon, 24 Jan 2011 18:21:16 +0000

Striped attire I’m currently wearing…

These boot slippers from Joe Fresh are the best. The fact that they are gray and white just make them even better.

Next up are some fingerless striped mittens I knitted for myself for use around the house. With the bitter cold we are having, having these alpaca yummies wrapped around my hands is much welcome. For those knitters out there, I used the Endpaper Mitts pattern from Eunny Yang.

And, to top it off, these blankets I found via Bre of Scout Catalogue (blog post here) have caught my eye too. Give me a snow fall, a comfy couch, a cuppa tea, a chick flick and one of these to wrap myself in and we’d have a perfect day around here.

The blankets are made by Mex Chic and can be found here.

What are you currently obsessed with? On a stripe kick too?

Now in black and white

Adele {modernemotive} — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 13:50:17 +0000

I’ve been wanting to do some one color work for a while now and I thought my 2011 Desktop Calendar lent itself perfectly to this project. Black and white seemed like the only option. Perfect for minimalist interiors.

I plan on using this version around my own home.

Now offering printables

Adele {modernemotive} — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 13:41:39 +0000

I’m testing a new product in the shop – printable paper goods. I’ve debated many a time whether I wanted to offer these but hey, I won’t know until I try right? First up are printable bookplates. As a kid (okay and an adult) I was always a little possessed with my books. I was never a fan of lending them to others and I STILL remember the one book I lost and WHO has it. Should of put a bookplate on it. ;)

Printable Zig Zag/Chevron Bookplates

Printable Sketched Lines Bookplates

IDEA: Want to use these as regular labels instead? Just request a file without the text. No problem. :)

P.S. Don’t forget… today is the last day to get 25% OFF my 2010 Holiday Collection and 2011 Desk Calendars.Popular Posts:

Holiday 2010 Collection now available

Adele {modernemotive} — Sat, 06 Nov 2010 18:02:29 +0000

*** UPDATE: I went ahead and dropped the prices in my Etsy shop to make it easier! ***

I’ve been slowly adding all of my Holiday 2010 designs into my shop the past week or so and the update is now complete! Have you seen it? If so, I hope you like it! And if not, go take a look. But, first read this…

If you’ve been jonesing for some modernemotive goodies, I highly recommend you order your Holiday items soon. Before we know it, the mailing system is going to clogged with gifts and greetings making their way to the recipients and the likelihood of customs keeping your package hostage for a little while is increased.

As an incentive, check out my Holiday deal below. Enjoy!

Okay, NOW you can go check out the new Holiday goodies. I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend friends! xoxoPopular Posts:
