Illustrated Icons by Every_Hey + Weekend Links

After what seems like a fairly stressful week all I want to do is share something that simply made me smile. Have you seen Hey Studio's Every_Hey account on Instagram?! If you haven't you really should! It's square-after-square of beautifully minimal illustrations of well known film, music, TV, gaming and cultural icons.

They're just straight up ace. And so are Saturdays. I'm going to get into the new copy of Umbrella magazine with a big ol' coffee - no more plans! Enjoy your weekend.

Our New Office + Weekend Links

Buckets has officially set up camp in The Den - a brand new co-working workspace on Bedford Sq, London, just near the British Museum! And we couldn't be more pleased with the location, slap bang in the centre of the city. We'll definitely be following this up with a proper post on The Den, as we'd love to show you all around.

It feels like I've been celebrating my 30th birthday for the past two week; last week spending some time in Liverpool with Hollie, then this week with friends and family. Well that's quite enough exciting news for once day. What's new with you?

Starbucks Illustrated Mason Jars + Weekend Links

Starbucks went and made buying their Cold Brews a little more interesting by inviting Californian artist Steven Harrington to create a 60-piece collection of hand-painted mason jars. Each of the jars features one of Harrington's own signature cartoon illustrations, which reflects the laid back LA lifestyle. I'm sure looking forward to checking out more of his work!

We've been catching up on a month's worth of blog posts that we missed while on our holidays, same this weekend Please do send some links our way of your posts via the comments or on Twitter, I don't want to miss any!

Seinfeld Pin Badges + Weekend Links

For the occasions you just want to represent a sitcom on your collar, there's these Seinfeld pin badges by Georgia Perry. Hopefully a Curb Your Enthusiasm set comes along soon, now that I'd like to see! Which sitcom would you like to see as a set of pins?

I've not had much time to myself this week; I've have fallen behind on work, emails, replying to comments and eating healthy. So I'm hoping Sunday is the perfect start to the new week - getting all my stuff organised + prepared, just how I like it. I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Oh, one last thing! We've been working on a Buckets & Spades Newsletter, you can sign up ---> here.

Euro Bus on Instagram + Weekend Links

Some weeks I enjoy Instagram more than others. Constant scrolling for 10 minutes before bed, then seven hours later when I wake up is a bit weird when you think of it. Your brain's not really up to much at that point. Sometimes you just need a blast of colour to take you by surprise and shake you out of that zombie state. Sound familiar? If so then check out Euro Bus on Instagram - which simply documents colourful art on the side of buses from across Europe. We found this account via Instagram's own blog.

Weekend vibes time my friends, enjoy it whatever you get up to!
