Trends: The Ampersand Obsession

Ampersand Collage on Bubbles & Ink

This recent ampersand logo trend has particularly caught my attention because it’s long been an obsession of mine as the quintessential symbol for my name (my initials before marriage were A.M.P.) combined with my love of writing and thus vintage typewriters. Does that make sense? Regardless, I’m a sucker for good typography design accents (I do love that Bubbles & Ink logo), so I’ve compiled a little cluster of cool pieces that I wouldn’t mind adding to my own collection. What do you think of this ampersand trend? I’m obsessed with that marquee lamp. Got any favorites?

ULINX Bracelet Giveaway

Happy Friday, everyone. Today’s giveaway comes courtesy of ULINX Modular Jewelry. Mine came in last week (see pic, bottom bracelet). The coolest thing about these bracelets is that they’re magnetic so they don’t need any sort of adjustment. In fact, you can play with them and rearrange them and just make them work for you at your whim. I also loved the fact that you can design your own, so you can pick your style, color, and extras.

For this giveaway, one reader will get their own personalized ULINX bracelet by doing the following:

1) Go to the ULINX site and design your own bracelet.

2) Save the design under your name.

3) Post your design to the ULINX Facebook page and tag Bubbles & Ink.

Contest ends one week from today on Friday, June 15th at 5:00 p.m. Eastern. Good luck!

P.S. Did you spot the hidden Pomeranian?

UPDATE: Congrats to our winner, Nicole!
