Czech Matchbox Labels
As someone with a propensity for collecting anything and everything, my current obsession is mid-century paper ephemera. Or, if we’re going to be more specific than that, superbly designed Czech matchbox labels. When I’m not sourcing them myself, I seek them out online. One of the best collections I’ve found is Kindra Murphy’s Flickr set.

I have followed the Clayton Brothers’ work since the mid-90s and had the pleasure of meeting them a few years back. Their art is a reflection of what great people they are. It’s really compelling to see their work in person. I love it and can’t get enough of it. I wish I had a lot more money so I could have a big one in my house.

I’m in love with her clutches! But yes, if you missed her over the week end at the Blue Mountain’s Leura Village Fair, she’s stocked in Glebe and Sydney’s Todae store, as well as at a variety of online outlets.
