moving announcements

After spending what felt like half of my life in airports and on airplanes this past year, I found myself wishing that flying was like the olden days. Wouldn’t it just be nicer if everyone dressed up for the airport? If flying was still an event in and of itself? Not to mention, I love vintage inspired plane details–cheerful leather suitcases, vintage airmail stamps, everything red and blue striped. .  . I actually kept the Destinations journal below while I was abroad, and inside, it’s filled with cute little vintage details. It made my air travel that much nicer!

Moving away can be a very emotional time. Sometimes it’s extreme happiness and excitement, othertimes it’s sadness and fear, and often it’s a mix of the two. Keeping up with friends and family after the movie is essential though; that’s why our moving announcements are so helpful. Personalized with your new address and information, and even a picture if you want, it’s a way to ensure you’ll always stay in contact. I love this moving announcement from Sugar Cookie Cards; it’s as sweet as the designer’s name! When paired with this image from Flickr photographer Midnight Snack Store, it makes for a great way to show the memories you’ve made with family and friends will continue on, even in your new home and location; in other words, they’ll always have the key to your heart.

My First Place

Okay, so it’s not “technically” my first place, because I’m still renting –but after four years of college-style living, it was a much needed upgrade. Together with four girlfriends, all recent graduates, we now have a quirky green house at the top of the hill in Berkeley to call our home. Furnished with hand-me-down furniture and home-made art, we were eager to show off our new address (walking distance to Cheeseboard, the best pizza in the SF Bay), so we ordered these stylish moving announcements from Tori Higa to send to our friends and family. Now to plan our housewarming party!
