I Love Matte Stephens

My dears, I wanted to kick off the week — this last week of July (sniff, sniff) — with something undeniably fun and a confession: I love Matte Stephens. You too? His mid-century-influenced illustrations always bring a smile to my face and almost always remind me of my sweetie pie niece (she’s the proud owner of this print).

At the tender age of five, she’s a total fish in water and never fails to make me laugh with her giant goggles, which is just one reason I love this Swimming print. Aside from being totally charming, Matte’s prints are also totally affordable. Which means adding to my (and by my, I mean my niece’s) collection won’t break the piggy. Where to scoop up your own Matte Stephens? Right here on Etsy.

p.s. Speaking of my niece, a huge Happy Birthday shout-out to her mama (my big sis) today xx!
