When I heard that the theme at OMHG this month would be “handmade heritage”, I immediately thought about how my products are created for modern families, but they all have either a vintage feel (like my silhouette collection pictured above) or a retro feel (like my olliegraphic collection pictured below). And the more I thought about it, I realized just how much I’m drawn to products that combine vintage-modern or retro-modern elements.
Whether it’s printing modern designs using an old-fashioned method such as letterpress or giving vintage or retro designs a modern twist, I can’t get enough of it! Here are some of my favorite examples of this design aesthetic…
