WALLPAPER | Tropical Leaves

WALLPAPER | Tropical Leaves
tropical leaves desktop wallpaper by erika firm Download Wallpaper Button My little houseplant collection is growing. I don't want to jinx it, but I haven't killed a plant in over a year! My tropical plants inspired this new leaf pattern that I painted for you. I was thinking about turning it into wallpaper and fabric. How would you use this pattern in your home? Should I keep the background white or add a color? To download free desktop wallpaper, click on the black "download" button above and the image will open in a new window.

New Emerald Lion Vintage Logo

New Emerald Lion Vintage Logo
Emerald Lion Vintage Shop Launch Erika Firm New logo designs make me happy! I just finished a new logo for Emerald Lion Vintage -- a vintage treasures shop on Etsy, curated by my family and me. I'm usually my own worst client, but this one came together pretty quickly. Probably because my little one was sitting next to me the whole time I was designing the logo, giving me advice and choosing fonts and Pantone colors. I'm proud to say he is the one who suggested the slab serif font! Our new Emerald Lion Vintage shop on Etsy is stocked with vintage treasures. Most are goodies I spot while prop shopping for client photo shoots that are just too good to pass up. My cabinets are bursting at the seams, so my son promised to help me manage an Etsy shop. It's too early to say what our specialty will be, but if I had to guess I'd say mid-century modern décor, barware, serving ware, and all things emerald green and mustard yellow.

Lovely Laptop Cases

Lovely Laptop Cases
lovely laptop sleeves and laptop cases New laptop means new tech accessories. Yay! To me a computer is a serious tool, so getting a new one is cool, but not exciting. But a fancy new laptop sleeve or killer new laptop bag? That, I can get excited about. I decided on no. 1: a brown leather laptop envelope sleeve by Boutonné. But space cat is a rather close second. Hmmm, I wonder if I can fit space cat inside my Boutonné sleeve?

Studio Sneak Peek: Abstract Art
abstract painting Sleepless by Erika Firm Yellow and green abstract painting by Erika Firm Four muted abstract paintings by Erika Firm January is always a busy month, so full of possibility and promise. While I don't do official "resolutions" for the New Year, I'm trying to be a little more organized this year, trying to paint a little more, and trying to be less terrified of posting my work. So here's a sneak peek at some of the paintings I've been working on so far this year. Some are for licensing partners, some are personal, and some may wind up for sale in my Etsy & Amazon Handmade shops soon. Cheers to a promising 2016! Continue reading
