a dog day routine…
I should be a little embarrassed about how much I love my dog and although some of you may be thinking “oh no not another dog obsessed owner who looooooovvveesss her dog, posts pictures all the time, takes it to day care, and pushes it around in a stroller.” Ok, so I may do all [...]
Happy Friday… Hello 29.

what makes my work day… work…
Since working from home full-time is a fairly new thing for me I’ve found that there are a few things that help me stay motivated and focused. * Get dressed… shirt, dress, shoes, jewelry… the whole deal. And YES! I absolutely do have those days where the pajamas stay on and a shower is taken [...]
a new year…
Yesterday we finally took down all the glitz and glam of the holidays and got re-organized in the home and the studio in order to get ready for 2012. Although, I have one more holiday/birthday surprise up my sleeve for a special someone, the holiday season has come to a close and after a much [...]
To you and yours…
Merry Christmas to you and yours. We’re taking a little break to relax, spend some time with family and friends and fill ourselves with all the delicious Christmas goodies! Before we took off I wanted to share our own Christmas cards. We try and take our own family picture every year and this year, as [...]

All Black.
My husband’s favorite holiday is Halloween (I know it puzzles me too.) So every year we have a Halloween bash, filled with some sort of theme, moving, light up, remote controlled Halloween “props,” lots of dry ice (because really, when else can you use dry ice), and spooky decorations. In an effort to make Halloween [...]
Harvesting Fall in MI
Although we live in CA, its nice to have family back in the midwest so we can get our fill of the seasons that we miss so much. This time it was a long weekend in Michigan filled with all of my favorite fall things: colored leaves, apple cider, pumpkin patches, bonfires, comfort food, warm [...]

5.12.11 – 6.12.11
Inspired by my friend Allie’s 30 day Challenge to herself, I wrote a to-do list and tried my hardest to check them all off by the end of 30 days. There were the big things like spring cleaning my home and studio, prepping for my online store, and finishing all the stationery pieces for my [...]
