STATIONERY - suzy ultman/chronicle

super talented designer suzy ultman's 'masha & friends' has just been released by chronicle books. the set is inspired by russian folk art but suzy says 'the soul' of the project came from her childhood when she spent years collecting dolls from around the world, days & days painting objects in my dad's workshop, and hours writing to pen pals on hello kitty notecards with matching stickers. the masha set includes a pop-up feature so you can either display the dolls as a set or send them on "postal adventures". available on amazon usa now and in the uk here next month.
