Desktop Designers // Jessica of Coco & Mingo
Not all those who wander are lost.
-J.R.R. Tolkien
I have always loved this snippet of a quote. Sometimes I feel like I’ve taken a very different path than lots of my friends and family, and I feel like it might have seemed like a very haphazard route to some folks. But every step of the way has been a gorgeous adventure and I wouldn’t trade any of it.
When Jessica from Coco & Mingo said she might be interested in lettering a desktop wallpaper for us, I felt so fancy! I’ve loved her work for a good long while, and I’m so glad to be able to share it here. Don’t you love what she did? It’s so beautiful and clean and concise. We decided to pair it with a photo that I took on our honeymoon in Tahiti, on the island of Moorea. We went out on a scooter one morning and it seemed like the whole island was asleep, so we just followed this road wherever it took us. It goes perfectly with Jessica’s calligraphy.
Jessica is a blogger and a Brooklynite, in addition to doing full-time graphic design for a consulting company. (And clearly, she likes to spend a little time on her hand-lettering hobby!) You’ve gotta pop over to her blog and see more of her style — there’s so much great stuff to look at. For more goodness, check her out on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram too.
Big thanks to Jessica for sharing her talents! Be sure to download your wallpaper below. xoxo
