Remember the last issue of the Bloesem Gazette, Volume 3? The cover featured a down right motivational poster (a.k.a the Pushing Beauty Manifesto) we hung in the Bloesem studio for that extra push on slow days. I mean if you were thinking of taking a break or putting something off till tomorrow, but then you look up and see "Get on with it" in all caps, that's pretty good motivation I would say. The next best thing would be to have someone shout it at you, but that's just too much effort for both parties..
Michelle D'Avella is the designer of said motivational poster and other than pushing people to achieve their best, she's also pushing beauty - not literally but that's the name of webshop, where she does sell beautiful prints and healing tools. If you are feeling in need of a little something something, Michelle can help you to calm down or get inspired, whichever would best suit the situation you are in.
Wild life Print available in multiple colours.

With the recent launch of the Veggie collection, we were drawn to Carmen's beautiful posters under her label Vontrueba. We love how she places with textures and layers and on top of the already beautiful posters, her styling for the product shots are home runs. Everything on her website is all so visually exciting! Read on for a few more of our favorites from her collection.

Walls with messages are always a good idea ... they give you food for thought or start a conversation ... I like the Hi! Coni, a graphic designer living in Barcelona has thought of some great lines and screen-printed them in perfect matching fonts.
I love the fact that these posters are not printed by a machine but screen printed by hand. Which one would you choose for your home ... I think I would start with 'Life is Now ' and 'We are a team' ... just missing one toothbrush for my family :)
Do you know that I always have a couple of these kind of posters at home ... just in case I need a present.

The lovely people from Oh My Home send me one of their gorgeous new posters ... Taking Breaks is perfect for our Amsterdam apartment ... because this is going to be our place where we will be during our vacations ... relaxing, resting, enjoying and taking breaks!
I haven't had time yet to frame the poster but while looking for a spot where to hang it I made some pictures for you. The poster is not just paper ... it's plasticized ... meaning higher quality and longer lasting.
More posters by Oh My Home right here ... ps. great styling by this bloggers couple!
