Ok ok so I know that it’s been far too long since I’ve gotten a blog post up, but hopefully today’s post makes it all worth the wait because as you guys know, these are some of my very favorite blog posts to share every season – our fun, totally free phone seasonal wallpapers, desktop and Zoom backgrounds in collaboration with my favorite artist the planet, the lovely Rhian Awni!
This is our first ever summer season wallpaper set and I have to say, this may just be one of my favorite sets yet! Wait, do I say that every season? Ok so I may say that every season, but all of Rhian’s beautiful creations just fill my heart with so much joy and every season I feel so lucky that she allows me to create these backgrounds for you guys because I have so much fun doing it! And the punchy, sunset-inspired color palette in Rhian’s adorable, beachy graphics that you see in this season’s backgrounds pretty much scream sun-soaked summer days and endless sherbet sunsets and that made dreaming these wallpapers up while sitting lakeside here in Northern Michigan extra special this time around!
I know that this year has been particularly challenging for pretty much everyone on the planet, so just like our happy spring backgrounds, I’m hoping that these 6 fresh summer designs will inject a little bit of joy into your daily life while you’re hunkering down and processing the rollercoaster of emotions that fill this really tough moment in our lives. I promised that I’d do my best to serve you guys whatever glimpses of hope and happiness I could during this time and I hope that somehow, some way, these brighten up your day or the days of the people you love, and I know Rhian shares that sentiment. Seeing her work has always put a huge smile on my face and fills me with happiness, and I just feel so lucky that she’s once again allowed me to bring her work to life in a new way for you guys.
I’ve said it once (or probably several times, actually) and I’ll say it again – we’ve been absolutely blown away by the outpouring of love surrounding our seasonal phone wallpaper designs, and both Rhian and I have been so overjoyed watching you love, use and share those creations over the course of the last two and a half years. It makes our hearts so happy to know that you love looking at these as much as we love making them, so thank you to everyone who has downloaded, enjoyed and shared with your friends. That just means that world to us and we hope that these 6 fun summer designs make you guys smile and fill your days with a little bit of happy this season when you look at your phone or computer, or hop on Zoom with friendly faces!
And as a reminder, if you’re as in love with Rhian’s adorable illustrations as I am you’ll be happy to know that you can commission her to create custom illustrations for you of all kinds, for any occasion, milestone or moment in your life. How amazing is that? Wedding invitations, Save the Dates, branding and logos, family portraits, illustrations of your home, pet portraits, book covers, and so much more. If you can dream it, she can illustrate it. She’s that good. If you’re reading this thinking, “Yes, please!” just email her at Reani.art@gmail.com and she’ll make your dreams come true! If you’re into dreaming up fun paper or virtual invites, cards or the like for special occasions or just for fun, you can also buy all of her amazing themed graphic sets on Etsy so you can create and customize all on your own! And if you’re not already, make sure you follow her on Instagram to see what she’s working on – the inspiration in her feed is endless.
Make sure you comment below and tell us which designs are your favorite so we can make more of the kind of designs you love next time! We’re also just dying to know your summer vibe – are you a sailboat, lemon, ice cream, sunnies, melon or flip flop kinda person or are you purely here for the punchy sunset-inspired color palette? Let us know!
