online inspiration

The rest of the newspaper and magazine industry may be struggling along, but somehow online magazines seem to be taking off in a beautiful and innovative way. Have you seen these three terrific children's magazines? I love the fact that they feel less corporate and more innovative than the big glossies; they're each truly a labor of love, and they ooze creativity:


LMNOP: a quarterly magazine published out of Australia, filled with all sorts of stylish ideas for parents and kids.


Small: includes a wonderful variety of features, my favorite part is the opportunity to see the work of a different illustrator in each new issue.


Papier-Mache: the newest addition to the group, this one is also published out of Australia. I really like the fashion features and the scrolling format.

Have fun!

  2. These are great tips! Thanks for sharing them.

    A few days ago I saw a post on your blog about Market and thought, Liesl was there?!? How weird we never crossed paths. Next time I'll just have to hunt for your booth.
