Orange Beautiful Studio + Shop Grand Opening

As Scoop readers will know, Emily Hamma Martin of Orange Beautiful frequently makes us blush for her words of praise on The Scoop blog, not to mention her many artwork purchases over the years. So, it's an honor to be able to turn the tables and commend her hard work and amazing talent for a change. This weekend, Orange Beautiful celebrates the grand opening of their new studio and shop at 4658 N Damen Avenue. From the behind-the-scenes photos documenting the shop progress at the 4658 North Damen blog, one can only imagine how beautiful the shop is going to be in person.

Emily's trademark style: well-selected typography in vinyl

I geek out over everything Emily does; even her sales receipts inspired a complete over-haul of our forms a few years back. Art fair artists, you will relate. Look at these Orange Beautiful booth shots. Kinda makes you cry, no?
