5 Links I loved
- Sad to see Design*Sponge announcing their final year but it’s a great idea to let everyone enjoy the winding down, rather than just stopping.
- I’m completely fascinated by these product mockups in Paper Glitter’s portfolio. It’s so fun to see these big play sets made out of foam board.
- I enjoyed this look behind the scenes at how illustrator/author Helen Stephens created her recent book, How To Hide A Lion At Christmas.
- The year in band names is always good for a few laughs.
- Japanese manhole covers washi tape! So niche. (via @stamp_sui26, a great Instagram account that shares Japanese souvenir stamps)
