White Box of Awesome-ness


I had the pleasure of meeting Monica from the White Box of wedding design last week and visiting the amazing White Box space. If you don't know what White Box is, then that is sad. If you are a bride in the greater Milwaukee area (or even not in this area) and don't know what White Box is, then that is a crime! White Box is a completely FREE service for brides, offering advice on anything and everything wedding related! You can go to the space to see vendor portfolios, get advice or information for anything related to your wedding: fashion, vendors, etiquette etc. They also offer wedding planning services. And, if you don't want to go in, you can visit their fabulous blogs, either BeSpoke or the amazing The Milwaukee Wedding Blog. They are dedicated to making wedding planning just a bit easier, which makes them awesome in our book!

Frames Done Right



I am loving these ultra mod frames from Blackelm. Their Etsy shop is packed with handmade wood frames that are beyond rad! These frames take my love for framing pictures to a whole new level.

Beach time



I've fallen for Richard Misrach 'On the Beach' series of photographs. I'm usually not a fan of water/landscape photos, but there's something so abstract and gorgeous about these photos. Check out the book here.

The first of more to come


As some may know, I totally love gig posters. I recently designed my first gig poster to hang in my house, and I think it came out quite well. I am thinking of selling editions of the print on Etsy. I think it is safe to say that Cracked Designs will be designing more gig posters in the future....

My first Journey Journal



When I recently went to Montana, I filled out a Journey Journal for the first time and I have to say, it was awesome. Even reading through it now, only a couple weeks after the trip, I was remembering things I had already forgotten about, which was coolio. Here are some pages from my very own Journey Journal.

Custom Journey Journals


We created a custom journey journal for someone recently, and thought it would be cool to do it more often! So, if you are traveling to a specific country or state and want a custom journey journal made for that area, let us know and we'd love to make it!

Here is the 'France Edition' we recently made.
