Hello fellow Design Crisis followers, it’s Melody of me melodia. I am so pleased to be doing a tiny guest spot here. You design savvy, forward thinking hussies are fantastic. I kinda racked my brain on what to focus on while I stood on this design crisis soap box. I scoured through my unattended magazines and furniture catalogs for some kind of inspiration. Then I came to the realization that I have way too many unread wallpaper, simpleliving, believer, good and martha’s lying around. Keeping up with the goin’ons is not easy. Currently our office and my night stand have piles of dogeared magazines.

Then voilà I came across the work of Leslie Mutchler
and her cleaver catalog collages . When I spotted these I immediately had an I should have thought of that moment. What a great way to make creative use of those read and used catalogs we all have lying around.

Do you have cute makeshift magazine tables?
Or are you like me and bordering the brink of being a hoarder?
