Sorry to have missed this post last week, but there was just no way, no how I could manage it—plus I hadn’t spent much time perusing the interwebs either. So carry on to the delayed Evernotes Every!

1. Engler Studio Identity

I love the splashes of yellow amid the bold black and white, but what I really love is the concept behind this design for the interior decorating team at Engler Studio:

We wanted to create a brand for Engler Studio that embraced its interior design skills, as well as its individual design personality. The main element of the brand is a graphic combination of patterns that overlap each other; they represent the images and colors you might find on an interior designer’s inspiration board, and also refer to the play of patterns, colors, light and shadows in a beautifully designed room.

Designed by Eight Hour Day.

2. Gig Poster for Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings

So much going on in this poster with the organic yet abstract shapes—yet it has a simple design in terms of color and imagery. It definitely caught my eye while browsing the pins of Pinterest.

3.  Antique a Mirror

It’s full speed ahead in redecorating our home office. As I was going through all my current wall decorations, I realized I mostly had framed pictures, so I started searching for other alternate options. A mirror would be a great addition—I also found a 2′ compass, score! But I don’t want any old mirror. In keeping with the Pirates of the Caribeean theme we’ve been dreaming of for 8 years, I thought if I pirate were to have a mirror, it wouldn’t be nice and shiny but rather waterlogged and aged. So thanks to HGTV I found a DIY post on how to antique a mirror, now all I need is a mirror.

4. Ikea Moppe Drawer Hack

I started staining the 4 crates I have thus far collected (for my office of course), and let me tell you—I love staining wood! It is just too fun! Thankfully I am liking the imperfections of the wood and the stain otherwise, I may say it wasn’t going so well. Anyway, to further my love of staining wood I found this great “Ikea Hack.” Thank you Pinterest!

5. Salted Caramel Cheesecake Bars

I can’t help but salivate every single time I look at these scrumptious dessert treats! Find the recipe on CupcakesOMG! Found via Pinterest.
