In the shop: Fireworks print

Oh fireworks.  How I love your bright colors and exciting pops and snaps!  I also dread you for the same reasons.  Having a one year old and 2 neurotic dogs have made me more than a little happy that fireworks are over for awhile.  I made this print for the 4th but then forgot about […]

Before my son was even six months I already had decided two things about his first birthday: 1. it was going to be amazing and 2. it was going to be on a budget.  I don’t believe that you need to spend a lot of money to do awesome things but you do need to […]

The Creative Block

A creative block can be a frustrating thing.  Whether at work or on personal projects, a creative block can result in hours, days, or weeks, of lost productivity or a lackluster result.  I’m no stranger to creative blocks but I’ve found a few things that work for me when the muse takes a vacation.  A […]

Henry’s Ecclectic Nursery

It used to be that clothes, toys, and decor for kids would never be described as “cool” or “modern.”  In the last ten years there has been an amazing surge of in-the-know designers whose mission has been to make things for tots that fit in with their parents hipper aesthetics.  I feel endlessly grateful to […]

Parenting Daze

He looks so sweet and innocent doesn’t he?  Well he is but he’s also been waking up about 5 million times a night for reasons I can only guess at.  He’s normally very easy going and happy so the night time chaos has thrown me for a loop.  In a moment of sleep deprivation I […]
