Making a Fireplace

1) If you ever have a printer shipped to you, keep the styrofoam and the box they used to protect it. Measure out and draw some lines.

2) Cut along the lines at a 45° angle to remove strips, making triangular grooves along the styrofoam.

3) Reshape the box to a fireplace shape, with an opening for the hearth.

4) Glue your styrofoam bricks to the outside.

5) Keep a few scraps of bricks for the chimney.

8) Drape two strings of flashing Christmas lights, orange and white, in a grey silk.

Mike deserves 99% of the credit for this, but I’m not above taking my 1%.

[d]online Medium Typeface featured on MyFonts.com Home Page

This week, I was delighted to learn from a few separate sources that [d]online was featured on the MyFonts.com home page. I have to assume that this coveted real estate is reserved for fonts that portray their catalog in a positive light and feel honored that they selected one of my typefaces to do so. I’m hoping that my second font, era404 Regular, will pop-up there at some point too.
