CraftGawker: Best iPhone Inspiration & DIY Art Discovery App

Considering I was up until about 530am playing on this iPhone app, deftly titled "craftgawker", I just couldn't consciously keep this find to myself!

The app interface is beautiful in its simplicity! Immediately upon opening the app, you're taken into a gallery of products. You can scroll down & choose any item to be taken to its 'details' page, which showcases a larger photo & a mini description. Optionally, you can also perform a general key word search - and believe  me, after scrolling through all the cool projects, you'll want to narrow things down!

Once you pinpoint your hearts desire { *swoon* } you'll be able to see the original source page. And this is possibly the best part, because almost every item I've found has been attached to a DIY tutorial! YAY!

October's Orange - Pink Fashion Slushie!

It's halloween, but it's also breast cancer awareness month! So that means I get to be eclectic this month (yay!).

My latest inspiration is this orange-pink fashion combination. I love the bright tones paired down with the more "sturdy" black accent.

Not sure about you, but I know I'd definitely rock this look for Halloween. As in a heartbeat! The look is simple to pull off, there's not much mess or makeup to put on, and you can re-use almost every single item in the outfit on a more regular basis! Utilitarian fits perfectly with my needs, especially since I love to mix & match.

And I don't know... I find that "simple" staples kind of tie in much nicer together. And that's from a graphic designer's perspective! <3

Simply stated... I'm in love with Sugar Pop Boutique Jewelry!

How amazing is high quality .925 sterling silver jewelry?! I just want to give a quick little (shameless) plug to SugarPopBoutique.com. What I love most about this designer boutique theme is the fact that all of the marketing materials are crisp & clean.

The colors are simple and understated, but yet still give a nice "pop" against the similar undertones of the jewelry. How did that happen...? I'm sure it's the typography & the smart placement of background colors! And don't get me started on the main website tumblr template. It's super simple, but it works. The jewelry is showcased like it was intended. Great  use of white space!
