Fine Little Day Book!

After months of work, the book is here. I haven't mentioned here all this time, but for those of you who follow me on Instagram, there has been several sneak peeks under the hashtag #finelittledaybook. And now that it's out, people have started posting their own photos to the growing collection. If you haven't checked it out yet - take a look!

It has been a true honour working alongside Elisabeth Dunker with this project, and I'm really happy that she wanted me to do the graphic design, unexperienced as I am in the field. But this process has proved to me that you can go far merely on pure lust - the expression "fake it 'til you make it" has become a motto of mine. I have learnt loads of things (certainly concerning the printing process) by taking them on as they come along. Since I'm trained in crafts and textile techniques, I'm used to learning by doing, which was an interesting perspective to bring into the book process. The word "quirky" has been mentioned to describe the book more than once already - that feels like an achievement somehow.

The past weeks, there has been one release event at the House of Rym store in Stockholm, as well as the Gothenburg Book Fair and a fantastic second release party at the new Fine Little Day studio! We made a tiny exhibition with some of the lettering sketches - and loads of pot holders, which has been a somewhat recurring theme throughout the book...

For those of you living in Sweden, Adlibris has a special offer until november 16th. You can buy the book for 175 SEK by using this link. And for everyone else, the book is available in the Fine Little Day shop. There is also a give away going on here - until tomorrow, Friday.

We have already had some comments and press, here are a few (mostly in Swedish):
