This is Merry Christmas to Daniel, my friend who has just moved to a new posting in South Africa. An avid photographer, Daniel has already been to a number of game parks but hasn&#8217;t yet seen this elephant.

Francois Chetcuti waited over ten years to see his paper toy project published. His first publisher in Germany went bankrupt in 1999 just before it was scheduled for production and the project was shelved until this year when H.F. Ullmann picked it up. Comprised of 8 superb toys to build yourself, the sturdy cardboard cards come packaged with [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Paper patience", url: "http://julienchung.com/blog/2008/12/13/paper-patience/" });</script>]]></description>

Audrey, my daughter who is still in Europe, sent me these lovely stamps as a birthday gift. Firstly, the very modern looking stamps from Luxembourg that celebrate their status as one of the European Capitals of Culture of 2007 and which displays the caribou or elk which was part of their logo. The other cheerful set hails [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Stamp appeal", url: "http://julienchung.com/blog/2008/12/13/stamp-appeal/" });</script>]]></description>

Ritzenhoff did a great job with my coffee cup design for their My Darling 2008 collection. This sunny lion is king of the Java Jungle in the morning with his brew.

I think that this illustration by British designer Jane McDevitt would make great Christmas giftwrap. I find the colors striking and I like the numbers - it looks like a wonderful diagram. I counted about fifty birds which reminded me of the Christmas carol mentioned in the title of this post. Jane created this image for a silkscreen printing [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Three French hens, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree", url: "http://julienchung.com/blog/2008/11/23/three-french-hens-two-turtle-doves-and-a-partridge-in-a-pear-tree/" });</script>]]></description>

Montrealer Melanie Favreau has a great sense of humour that can be seen in her sterling silver jewelry that she sells on Etsy and on Supermarket.  «Everyday things that are around me inspire me, says Melanie Favreau, like those plastic tags on breadbags.» Among my favorites are the owls, top, and the heart, not the usual shaped heart, but [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "French Canadian Hoot ", url: "http://julienchung.com/blog/2008/11/17/french-canadian-hoot/" });</script>]]></description>

Congratulations to Darby the dachshund for having won her elections today. He she was Moira&#8217;s mascot for the presidential race this week. You can have your dog&#8217;s portrait done up like this by contacting Moira or order a «Hope Dachshund for Obama» print at her Etsy shop. Gotta love those stripes!

I do relate to this bear who seems ready to hibernate. With shorter days everyone could use a bit of light therapy and a caffeine boost.
