little odd forest
Thursday, February 7, 2008
In reading the "about" page, I found out in August 2004, "Forestprints Design" officially launched thanks to Singaporean designer, Lynda Lye. She says she needed quirky, colorful things in her life and so she created them herself and in October of the same year she opened the online shop, "little odd forest boutique."Looking through her site is seriously fun. I mean I feel like a kid.
First of all you'll see she is a fabric addict like myself, but more avid about it as she is far better a crafter than I am. =o)Her designs are bright and cheerful homemade happiness!
It seems as though she has a fount of creativity overflowing in her brain at all times. She crafts and sells everything from buttons and key chains to t-shirts and tote bags. There are items for your home, room decor, mirrors, stationery and little huggables. Each item is unique, vibrant and perfectly adorable.In addition to being a fabulous designer she has also turned her company into something that helps people across the world. She has given jobs to the homeless, taught sewing skills to women who were jobless and is now sponsoring a child from Bangladesh through the "World Vision Child Sponsorship" program. Her company also donates money each month to the World Wildlife Fund.
Head to her site, shop around and also make sure to check out the Freebie Doodles section to scoop up sweet wallpapers for your desktop.
