Laughing at Junk Mail



When I got home from work today I checked my mail, which is part of my daily routine. Normally, there are a few pieces but today my tiny box was jam packed with catalogs, other junk mail, and a paycheck - yippee!!!. Seeing all of the random catalogs reminded me that I wanted to share a laugh-out-loud-till-you-cry blog that Sarah (my sister-in-law) shared with me.

Seriously, Catalog Living, is hysterical. The writer, Molly Erdman, has created an imaginary couple who lives inside the pages of ridiculous catalog photographs. As a designer, it reminds me that photography for marketing and advertising is rarely realistic, accurate or functional. Erdman does a fantastic job poking fun of the absurdities.

P.S. You should also check out Sarah's blog - The Chenault Life
