Things I’m Loving: Minted Edition

February 7, 2015

I’ve been wanting to share things I’ve been loving lately, whether it be food, clothes, books, etc., but I just never got around to actually sitting down and typing up a post.  The last time I shared some prints was back in 2013, can you believe it?!  The lovely folks over at Minted asked me if I would like to share a few of their products, and I got really excited – I’ve been lusting after their beautiful prints and cards for a long time!

A little bit about Minted first – they’re an online marketplace full of products by independent designers.  They have all of the paper goods you could need – announcements, thank you cards, holiday cards, invitations, notebooks, party decor, etc. – and they also have fabrics, art prints, and home decor!  It’s really easy to lose yourself in the art marketplace; there are so many great pieces, from abstract art to typography.  They have monthly art and design competitions where everyone can vote for their favorite designer’s pieces, and the winning pieces are then sold on Minted.

I found something in just about every category that I adore, but here are a few of my absolute favorites:

 

First, I love a good typography print.  I love that you can pick out different frames to go with these!  Is it really pathetic that it took me a couple minutes to figure out the bookshelf one said READ?

I also had to peruse the graduation announcements, since you know, I’m graduating this May.  I love these unique designs!

I’ve been doing a pretty poor job with organization lately, so I could really use a notebook or planner to keep track of things.

Finally, because this is a food blog, after all (and I’m going to be a pharmacist), I have to share this beautiful mint colored cake stand and apothecary jar!  I would love to someday have all sorts of apothecary jars filled with different candies on top of my book shelves – even better if it was in my own personal library! 😉
