Bubble NY: Dear Betty

I really enjoyed the booth for Dear Betty Designs at the Bubble NY show. Toronto designer Sherry Pribik says her illustrations were inspired by letters and drawings sent to her mother-in-law, Betty, when Betty was a little girl. Indeed, her work like the 12" x 12" Alphabet Paintings have a fun retro feel to them and would look perfect in a child's room. And I think Sherry's doorknob signs- especially the one I photographed below- take the cake. Remember all the times you had to tell people, "Now is not a good time" when taking care of your newborn? Too funny. Visit Dear Betty Designs for more inspiration (and click here to find online retailers).



p.s. Vacation is lovely and yesterday we celebrated my little boy S's 1st birthday. It was wonderful. I am even discovering some new shopping finds. Stay tuned for more when I'm back!
