i went over and checked my mail today and was surprised to find a package waiting, from an unknown address and marked “do not bend.” i carefully opened it and out slid two pieces of cardboard taped together, inside of which were two pieces of art and a card.
“dear julia…here is a little fan art i created for free people. i am an artist and budding textile designer from queens, new york. i have been wearing free people for years now and i am a faithful follower of the building 25 blog. i love the free people aesthetic. it’s refreshing how interactive the company is with their customer base. free people is more like a community than just a brand. thank you for all the cool clothes and inspiration. love, melissa.”
this means so much, melissa! thank you!
as if that wasn’t enough, i was also sent this amazing bouquet of flowers from sullivan owen.
made my day :)
Love the flowers!

Those pieces of art would be amazing and perfect for FP shopping bags!
I totally agree with Em! i love the patterns! :D really neat!
These are so beautiful and creative.

Wow! what a great day:) I agree with Em and Taylor about using the pattern on FP shopping bags. Are those violet roses in the bouquet? those are my favorite.
Both are VERY pretty! :)
I love FP!
I love that artwork, so colorful and pretty. Very “Free People” :)
I love it. That was not only sweet and thoughtful of her but I really like the art she sent you! If she has a website I’d love to see it mentioned on the blog. I’d be interested in buying prints of her work, such as the stuff she sent you!
