A glimpse of our essentials for a productive and inspiring day. Life at Liligraffiti's workshop has become somewhat kind of familiar for you by now! You know how we love to be efficient (the ultimate joy to cross a task off a to-do list! You know the feeling) but always in a good and fun spirit. For this brand new year, we wanted to offer you an illustration with all of our favorite daily things! Let's also take this occasion to wish you an amazing year 2021. We wish you a year filled with dates with friends, reunions with family...

A new category on the blog, with a never-seen-before illustration! We really wanted to end this year on a nice and sweet note, by offering you a brand new category on the blog, celebrating things we love and of course, with the adequate illustration. As you may have noticed with my work, I am a positive and optimistic person; I am your typical "half-full glass girl, and I love small everyday pleasures. All of this gave us the idea of this illustration, very Pintererest-like, to present you my favourite things to do around Christmas time. This year has been a...

So many great ideas to make your calendar special and one-of-a-kind! As you know it, our Advent calendar has been one of our favorite tradition throughout the years. This season, our calendar contains notebooks, art prints, greeting cards, accessories that you’ll loved, all from our last two collections, including our Christmas capsule. We take special care in preparing the packages for your calendars; our main goal is to make them both sweet and simple: brown packages and Christmas-red envelopes, for the traditional touch. Once you got your calendar, you are free to make it truly yours and to put together...

Many ways to enjoy our new set of flash-cards We just launched a brand new collab with the on-line baby shop Le Monde est tout-petit. This is our third collab with Ingrid, after our « Month after month” milestone cards, and the Alphabet flash-cards. This time, we took interest in numbers and imagined a new flash-cards set, illustrated with homes & buildings from all around the world. Going from 1 to 10, the cards show the numbers written with letters and are associated with the correct number of illustrations, which makes the whole learning process fun and attractive to kids.

We introduce you to our new project!  We can’t deny it, we are connected girls. Sometimes even too connected to be honest. :) But there are still places where our heart is still very much into the paper side of things.  To take notes, or to make our to-do lists, for instance (Hello notebooks and notepads by Liligraffiti!) but also for our planners. It is truly impossible for us to use an electronic version, and God knows we tried! We’ve been thinking about creating our own version of the everyday planner for quite some time; many of you requested it,...

A quick guide to our new collection: Fall designs + Christmas capsule It’s time for us to present you our brand new collection!

Making the most out of our favorite season. Hello fall! Our favorite season of all. We happily enjoy the last bits of « summery » days while mentally preparing for the cold winter weather, in shades of yellow, red, brown, those colours that we love so much here in Quebec during fall. We’ve made you one more seasonal bucket-list, the last one of the year. You can find the previous ones by clicking the Bucket list TAG on the right of this post. Have an amazing fall season!

Behind the scenes of an other aspect of my job! As much as I love creating new designs for my own personal brand, I get really excited whenever something new comes up. Personalized illustrations like « Draw me » and « Draw my house » have been amazing to let my creativity express in other ways. It may seem strange but I love working with constraints and guidelines: it unleashes my imagination! A few months ago, an editor from the Au carré publishing house reached to me to offer me a contract to imagine the cover of an upcoming novel. I was very enthusiastic...

A love story between Big Apple & our team We share a lot of things at Liligraffiti, and among those things, we share a big love for the Big Apple. Each of us has been there quite a few times and we are longing to go back there again. Whether it’s for professional motives (Hello, NSS!) or just as a leisure trip, we take every opportunity we get to go to NYC. We love this mix of urban jungle and green spaces! This city never ceases to amaze and fascinate us. These are a few of the things that we...

Just another good reason to suscribe to our (amazing) newsletter! As you may know, we send a monthly newsletter to our subscribers. Just the one, no more, no less. We tell you about new products, collaborations, stories about the brand, some cool behind-the-scenes, offer you sneakpeeks of upcoming collections, exclusive discounts...and we also top it up with a brand new illustration every month!

Nice habits to look forward to + a great to-do list we can't wait to tackle!   In just 2 short days, it will officially be summer and our whole team is really excited about it.

You can download the file HERE. If you prefer to create your own list from scratch, HERE’s the blank version....

I understand that I can't understand, but I stand. As you know, those past few days were the starting point of a great worldwide movement on the social media, and on a more global way, in our society. Following George Floyd’s death, many voices started to elevate against the police abuses against Black people. It happened in the USA but the problem is systemic. We should feel concerned because the issue is larger than this. Racism is a complex topic, as we all have a role to play in its eradication. Today is not about not being racist but about...

A nice hack to turn an everyday item into something priceless. Some of my favorite memories are about little things that I used to collect from my walks or the experiences I lived. They were lots of them, filling my pockets, and then some boxes when I was back home. Growing up, the power of words became another great discovery: I learned how writing about things you were experiencing helped you remember not only the experience itself, but also the feelings and emotions that surrounded it. When I first started my stationery line and designed my very first Liligraffiti collections,...

A guide of our favorite Pantone inspirations + our post-confinement shopping list!     Self-quarantined maybe, but our team is more than ever eager to live a more colorful, more fun, more exciting everyday life! We put together a moodboard of our favorite colors during the warm seasons, thanks to this amazing Pantone palette, which we fell in love with. Funky, energetic, luminous, joyous colors that are just perfect to lighten our mood. This inspired us to create a shopping list filled with bright colors to treat yourself once the situation is better. Outfits, lifestyle, and even some inspiration for...

Du futile, de l'utile, seul-e ou en famille. Alors que nous sommes dans notre troisième semaine de confinement, j'avais envie de vous offrir mes petites idées pour mettre à profit et/ou rendre cette période un peu plus douce.On le sait, c'est un moment un peu délicat que nous devons vivre collectivement. Mais souvenons-nous que le plus important est de garder en tête que nous devons rester chez nous, pour la santé publique et en particulier celle des plus faibles. Voici nos idées favorites pour traverser cette période.   > Lire, lire, lire sans relâche ces romans que l'on accumule depuis...

Alors que le printemps a officiellement fait son apparition aujourd'hui, il nous faut en général attendre un peu avant d'en profiter pleinement au Québec. Nous prenons donc, ici à l'atelier, notre mal en patience, et préparons nos favoris de saison afin de savourer, le temps venu, la douce chaleur printanière...

Have you ever noticed all these funny special days we hear about on social media, or that you see written on your planner? Like World laughter day (May 3rd), National Pasta Day (October, 17th) or even Clean your refrigerator Day (November, 15th)… Well, among them, you can find one that we immediately loved and you’ll see why! On February 7th, this is Send a card to a friend Day. Invented by a card company (Duh!), we love this simple yet efficient idea to keep in touch with loved ones in an old-school/nostalgic way. Although the greeting cards market has never...

As some of you might have seen a few weeks ago on my Insta stories, I spent the holiday in Costa Rica for a family trip. This country was on our bucket list for so long, we were really excited to finally be able to visit this place, that met our expectations and beyond! Join me for a travelog full of colors and savors!... Our trip begins in San José, Costa Rica’s capital, where we spent the first night of our stay. The next morning was the real starting point of our adventure and we left to the Caribean Cost,...
