The Zhush: Designs On My Mind

4/6/11

Designs On My Mind

As many of you have noticed, I've "zhushed" things up a bit over here. For one, I added the greek key design from the zhush store to the header, thanks to Hanna of Gadabout and Shari of Little Blue Deer Design! In addition, I've been tweaking the look of the store quatrefoil logo and actual layout itself, (full reveal to follow next month). So, it's no surprise that I've had greek keys and quatrefoil shapes on the brain lately. It seems that now more than ever, anything and everything that embodies these design elements really catches my eye. Including this cheerful room, designed by Jennifer McGee!
