Digging the new Mixtape

Yaaaaaay, the new Mixtape is here! With each new issue, I’m more impressed with the beautiful design and print quality of this zine. And this is their second full-color issue!

Take a look at some of the goodies inside…

An article on selvedges by Jodie, creator of the famous Selvedge Frock.

There’s always lots of great eco advice in Mixtape. This piece by Jorth talks about ways to precycle – or, avoid creating any waste in the first place.

OOh! Pull-out calendar for the rest of 2009, by the very-talented Valentina Sedda!

Mixtape is also a great resource for parents. One of the kid-related articles in this issue is by Kylie, offering strategies for introducing children to art museums and galleries at a young age.

I also loved this profile of paper-cutting artist Tina Tarnoff.

That’s only a smattering of what’s in this issue – you can get more details at the Mixtape website. If you’re not familiar with Mixtape, it’s a zine produced in Australia by Justine Telfer and her husband, Simon.

A truly great indie project. Check it out!
