Anthro Crush
I am seriously crushing on Anthropologie lately… well – it’s been a long-term crush… but the florals and bright colors in their summer collection has really got my heart all-a-flutter. To top things off, Anthro’s photo shoots are absolutely breathtaking… I drool over each new catalog that finds its way to my mailbox – each in it’s own, unique size, layout and theme. Sigh!!
Keeping Busy + NSS
Hello friends! I admit – I have been BUSY (and grateful for it!), but part of this year’s focus on organization (self-imposed resolution) includes updating the HH Blog more often! So in the next few weeks, the plan is to catch up on posting and share what I’ve been up to these last few months. But first – a trip to the National Stationery Show in NYC. I am beyond excited for the show and all of the people I have been looking forward to meeting. I will be sure to catch you all up after the show!
You may also have noticed Hello Hailey has a fresh new look! I am still in the process of finishing up with final details of the site, so keep checking back to see what’s new ;)

New Logo Projects
Developing logos is one of my favorite tasks. I remember working with my brother, as kids, on a new logo for my dad’s company. We spent hours on the living room floor coming up with all sorts of ideas – all of which my dad proudly brought into work to show the boss.
So without further ado, I have two recently completed logo projects I’ve been itching to share… read more after the jump… Continue Reading →
Maya’s Hope
I am so very happy to share my recent involvement with Maya’s Hope, created by Miss Maya Rowencak! To quote MHP’s facebook fan page,
“Maya’s Hope strives to send aid and hope to children throughout the world. Our main focus is to send medicines, clothing, books and other basic necessities to orphanages in great need, with a current focus on orphanages in the Philippines and Ukraine.”
After just completing my first project with the MH team (print/web-ready sponsorship sheet design), I am definitely looking forward to the exciting projects ahead! Maya and the MH team are incredibly resourceful, hard-working and most importantly, passionate – and it is incredibly humbling to be a part of such an important effort!
