Kinfolk Vol. 2 comes out Monday! It's been a real delight to work on and I can't wait to share it with you.

Here is the promo video made by Andrew + Carissa. They recruited me for the typography and thanks to Mitchell Thorson's genius, it was brought to life.

PS. Cree starts finals this week. Sometimes when he studies he gets so tired that he has to study while standing up. It just about breaks my heart...and then it makes me grateful I'm not in school right now. Send him lots of happy thoughts when you have a moment or two.

PPS. Thanks to Will at Bright Bazaar for the shout out on West Elm's blog Front & Main!
