Cut.It.Out. New Cut Out Prints!

One thing I noticed in my almost 4 years of running Yellow Heart Art was that I was constantly getting this one request from customers..."Hey, can you change the colors of your print to match with my home?"

Sometimes I was able to do it, sometimes I couldnt. Or sometimes you pay extra for me to change the colors of your artwork only for you to go ahead and revamp your living space and now that new print no longer goes with your decor.

So, I have a solution. A fun solution. A unique solution. A solution that when others walk into your home they look at your print and go "whoa...is that...?" (why yes, it is, it's a cut out print!)

click me click me!

find me here!

aaaand how can i help you today? (see what I did there?)

inspired by the bubs

What I love most about these prints is that they are so versatile. Since the words are cut out of the paper whatever wall or surface you place the print on will peek through the openings, so it will always go with any home decor you have in your house!

Plus the fact that its cut out makes it stand out from your other gallery wall pieces. Check out the entire collection here! Be sure to stock up for gifts this holiday!

Its Hip To be Square - NEW PRODUCT

Geez its been a long time since I introduced new shiz into the shop. I haven't been publicizing this because at the time we didn't know if it was going to happen or not but since May Bub and I were in the process of packing our stuff, moving/buying a new house, unpacking our stuff and now remodeling it. Actually it was kind of nice keeping it under wraps because when we told people we bought a house the response wasn't "Oh right I read it on Facebook!" or "oh yeah I saw on Instagram!" (sometimes the internet can suck) (I also plan on doing this for my engagement too) (no I'm not engaged) (or am I?) (ha, no I'm not)

We have had no life for about 4 months. An even bigger tragedy is that we haven't sat down and watched TV in months. I miss the days where we would come home from work, eat dinner, and just collapse on the couch while watching mindless reality TV garbage. (Followed by a battle for the remote control that could be publicized on UFC or something) (we go hardcore when it comes to remote control custody)

In March of 2013 I started to design items for my summer 2013 collection. Well, since I had to pack up my studio in May I wasn't able to work on my new products until recently. I've had the designs all worked out and completed, had them all ready placed onto fabric but they were just waiting to be cut up and stitched together to make this:

 oh heeey pillow by yellow heart art

 Introducing New Yellow Heart Art Decorative Pillow Covers!

The inspiration behind this collection was sparked by our recent move. We had lived in an apartment for about 2 years. I knew that place would not be our permanent home so I was always hesitant to buy cutesy and awesome home decor items for our apartment. I wanted to wait till we had a "forever home" where I can invest in items that would be in our living space for a while.

As I was shopping around for pillows I noticed that a lot of them were, well, lame. I like my decor to have a bit of sass to them. My new pillow covers have funny sayings and modern patterns to help add "umph" to your couches, beds and shelves.

All the handwritten pillows are my own hand writing. The patterns are patterns that I would put in my own home.  I tried to stick with color palettes that would be versatile with most home decor.

For now there are available as a pre-order. Since I have a few designs and they are so time intensive to make and sew I wanted to see which would be popular and go from there. What I love most about these is that you can easily switch them out and change them up since they are pillow covers and not actual pillows.

New Products!

Some of you may have already seen my new stamps that have hit the shop. I literally rushed to take the photos and upload them to Yellow Heart Art the day before hurricane sandy hit. I was with out power and the internet for almost 2 weeks so I wasn't able to promote them much.

But, here they are in all their rubber stampy glory

Finally Giving In

You guys, I finally gave in.

I have fought the neon trend for so long now, but I am finally bitten with the neon bug.

I don't know why but I try so hard to fight trends. I finally surrendered my white flag to:

• Colored Denim

• Capris

• The color Mint Green

(I know, shocking, it always reminded me of those gender nuetral baby showers) (but now I'm team mint)

• Skinny Jeans

• Jeggings (Dear whomever invented stretchy pants that I get to wear out in public: Love you. Let's make out and have babies)

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not gonna go all flash dance on you and bust out to Modanna's "Vogue" While sporting some neon leg warmers. I like my neon in small doses. Just enough to give it a lil "pop" a lil "shazaam" a lil "Hey, how YOU doin'"

Friday Faves the Renegade Edition!

Hey Guys! As you all know this blog has been pretty sparse in blog posts due to me gettin' ready for Renegade Craft Fair! 

There will be about 300 vendors, if you're going to be in brooklyn June 23/24 come on over the Booth #59 and give me a "waddup" and a "holla". In case you are unsure who I am just look for the overly pasty girl with the horrible Long Island accent. See Also: Real Housewives of New Jersey or the Jersey Shore for said accent.

It's something of proud of guys, it just happened, ok?

ok, focus Leonora.

I wanted to do a friday faves dedicated to some of my favorite vendors going to this years Renegade! I am SO STOKED to finally get to meet the lovely ladies behind some of these shops. I am going to attempt to leave my military boyfriend in charge of my hippy booth for a hot sec while I frolic and spend money I don't have on things I clearly need from other vendors.

FRIDAY FAVES:

the greatest purses ever made by Made by Hank

um, yeah, these are HANDMADE PURSES. I know, I'm in shock too. Katie Henry makes modern looking purses that are not all foo-foo-girly-girly. The quality is un-freakin-believable. No joke you would think there were commercially made bags. Katie stole my heart way before I even had a shop on etsy myself. I adore her shop and love how it is super raw and original. You go girl.

Geometric Wonderness from Son of a Sailor

I think I love son of a sailor so much because just like made by hank their stuff is all simple, modern, and WITH IT. You don't see too many handmade products like this circulating out there. Made props guys.

Cutesy and Modern goodies from Homako

 so, check it, her stuff was actually sold in anthropologie! She also makes ORIGAMI NECKLACS out of FABRIC. Mind officially blown and exploded to bits.

link up with THIS GIRL

So I get all weird out when I tell people I'm going to be in a craft fair. I feel like craft fairs have gotten a bad rap. People don't associate them with frekkin awesome shizznat like all that stuff above. I pinky promise its cool to be in a fair--promise I'm still cool guys.

anyway, off to sew plush #490,564,056,090....eh, I lost count.
