We submit for your approval the fabulous and talented Joy Deangdeelert Cho of Oh Joy! Oh Joy is a business, a blog and an amazing amount of inspiration for your home. Recently renovated to include a new look, more of the same great style and a few surprising features, we can personally attest to the joy we get when we visit this great site!
According to Oh Joy’s great “about page,” some important facts about Oh Joy are that the blog is dedicated to “inspiration & design with a focus on home accessories, textiles, and fashion.” It features a fresh two to three new posts a day and the site gets an impressive 30,000 readers a day, and nearly 470,000 readers a month. Those statistics aren’t what impress us though; we enjoy the high-quality posts that are consistently produced by Cho and the site, and we happen to have a bit of a love affair with all of Cho’s talented product offerings.
A background in graphic design working with fashion clients made it easy for Cho to get into the home accessory and textiles business, and after a move to her current city of Philadelphia, she started her own studio if 2005. In the beginning Cho focused on surface pattern, identities, and packaging for big named clients like Target, Mattel, QVC, Charlotte Ronson, Urban Outfitters and more. In 2007, Cho launched her own stationary line, which along with being gorgeous, can be found in stores all over the country, even Anthropologie, Chronicle Books and Tiny Prints. You can buy amazing notebooks, cards, folders, address labels and more, all in delicate, intricate and good-looking designs.
