D A Y N I G H T Magazine Launch

On top of Charlie Schuck's photography studio, he opened an amazing shop in Seattle, and now is launching this visual photo journal tonight...
AND he always throws the best parties....
AND he can fix broken iPhones. No joke.

Sometimes I wonder if this guy ever sleeps...

I'd Like to Tap That: Smith Tower...Again

Check out this amazing photos essay that our friend  Kyle Johnson who did a piece for Kinfolk Magazine Vol. 3!! Kyle proposed the project and shot the story while Ashley Helvey styled the shoot at the top pyramid loft space of the Smith Tower.

 

When the NYT feature of the space came out about 2 years ago,  I wrote a blog post about that space and about how my life won't even compare to the 3 year old kid living there!! But that was the past... now the NEW me, is little bit more optimistic knowing that I'm less than 6 degrees separated from the people who lives there.  I'm getting SO close I can taste it!
But seriously though....I'm SUPER excited for Kyle & Ashley that they got to do this (and of course, equally jealous!) It looked like such a surreal expereince....to hang out in the space, see the view of the city & the water from the 40th floor, while eating a homemade meal by Molly Wizenberg (of Orangette) and Brandon Pettit ( of Delancey)!

Yah, I know, can it get anymore ridiculous than this? I would very much like to shut the front door on them, too.

Someday....I'll get to a point where I don't have to pay $35+ just to see views like this on a day-to-day bases.

L&G in Monocole Magazine!!!!!

Sorry to have to play favorites , BUT this one deserves a few EXTRA exclamation mark!!!! 

We LOVE this awesome UK magazine and was more than stoked to have BOTH our Chalk Piggy bank AND Perimeter Tray be featured in the April issue!!

Reading this magazine is like having THE BEST worldly European friend with phenomenal taste to hang out with you.....I just automatically feel a bit more awesome and well-informed about all the current events around the world.
On top of all that, I get to meet the most amazing people, see the most incredible spaces and places, AND learn about  the best places to eat & shop!!!
Now if ONLY that friend was REAL.....

But I guess that's where Monocle comes in!
Hurray! my life is saved again!  Monocle, you're the BEST!! We're gonna be BFFs  for, like, ever.

L&G in an Ukranian Magazine?!

We nearly cried when we got this in the mail! It's such a beautiful high-end design magazine...I just wish I know how to say it & read it!

 A two page spread and all!! This is the biggest feature for us EV-AH!

Also part of my amazement is actually seeing the photos we took printed in an ACTUAL magazine...especially in such nice & pretty glossy magazine paper and all!! There's something so exciting about that!!!
Most of the photos are taken by us, with the exception of our portrait by our talented friend Kyle Johnson!

Oh and ooh... how I love the stamps...

I still can't believe this amazing featuring and spread of our stuff!!
So..maybe it's NOT impossible for us to get a centerfold next time???  ;)

Anthology Winter Gift Guide

 

Anthology's winter gift guide is available online! 

It's a beautiful compilation of all the wonderful festive parts of the holidays.

Also this recipe video of making mulled cider by Tiger in  Jar is absolutely lovely and is totally making me even more excited about the holidays! And if you like it spiked, I recommend adding honey whiskey or bourbon!

Some L&G Fall features

Totally stoked that our Superior Servers got some attention along with Be-YON-ce~ in the Fall issue of InStyle that weighs at least 5lb.
Although a little dissapointed that we didn't get a 8 page spread of us in fancy glam outfits nor an interview about my perspective on success, love & family like I thought we'd get...we're still pretty darn happy that our feature is at the back end of Beyonce! Hell yes.

Then us in Bon Appetit!
Just look at the juicy cover....Me huuuungry....

 
Then I spotted us in Small Magazine by accident! I'm totally excited when I saw this since I love looking at everything in there with their cute kids and cute photoshoots, clothes and everything! Something about things, people, and animals in smaller forms that simply makes them automatically cuter....except baby insects & reptiles....eew, gross.

Servers on Page 74!

I especially love the wooden poached egg!

L&G in 3 Magazines in June!

We're totally stoked that we made it in to 3 magazines for June! Not sure how the month went by so fast already..but hey...that seems to be always the case now these days. :P

Sunset Magazine:
Thanks to lovely Jess Chamberlain from Sunset, she wrote story on JOIN Design Seattle and got us a whole group feature!!
Jami & Brian who started JOIN got a great full page shot of them in their studio...perhaps a centerfold next time? ...Jamie I know you love it... :)
The spread of things from designers who are part of JOIN: Design Seattle..with I&M frame lights, L&G servers, Grain rings, Blk Pine backpack, Erich's vase, & Chelsea's bow tie!

Anthology Magazine: This was a pleasant surprise when I got this issue in the mail and saw that our servers are in there since they featured the product through one of our stores, Michele Varian based in NY.

Seattle Homes Magazine: Featuring the Mega-Doily rug in Meg's "Crafting A Meaningful Home" book.

This new online lifestyle magazine, Collected, launched this May founded by Krista Schrock and Jessica Comingore.

I love all their well-curated hand picked items. Pretty much.... I just want everything on these pages.

L&G on Dwell!

L&G is totally stoked to be in April issue of Dwell! ...we're actually in there twice! First feature is of the piggy bank along with other neat items...
here's piggy the Dwell website.
...and the second feature is of my Mega-Doily rug project under Meg's "Crafting a Meaningful Home" book!
Yay! Double awesomeness.

Couple More L&G Features!

Our L&G Superior Servers also got featured in December's holiday gift guide in Traditional Home Magazine!

This and Sunset's feature this month was totally amazing for L&G! And because of it, we've literally been working non-stop since Thanksgiving.....which totally feels like centuries ago! There were people who even recognized our goods from the features couple of weekends ago at UCU show!

In addition, L&G's Chalk Piggy Bank got featured in the Seattle City Arts magazine, too! This feature I actually didn't even know about! But thanks to Jenny from {Far4} I was able to get a copy of it before it was too late!

It's been fun seeing where we've been popping up without knowing....it's almost like a scavenger hunt..even MORE exciting! :)
