head in the clouds

06.07.10

shouldn’t come as much of a surprise really, it happens every year.  the day after renegade and i’m feeling a bit aimless and dazed.  i work so hard and am so focused for weeks leading up to it.  and then once it’s passed i’m left with a feeling of what do i do now?

well, for starters, i’m going to spend some time with the pup and the man.  i’m going to cook a nice dinner tonight and just relax and unwind for a day or two. i’ll be back soon.  xo

i  know some people would disagree, vehemently even, but i think clogs are great.

twist recap

05.24.10

a long overdue recap of the twist fair earlier this month. forgive me that these aren’t my actual photos from the show, none of them turned out very well.

there were some great vendors (as usual) and i was so happy to take part in the show.  some of my faves featured below -

amazing decoupaged plates by mary yanke. all of her work is beautiful, trying to pick just one favorite to show here was hard -

my

beautiful stationary from pressbound -

and some really cool hats from rocks and salt. i’m such a hat person! i’m sort of kicking myself for not having picked one up.

reliquaries

05.21.10

browsing online the other night i came across these.  i love them! like a shadow box but better.  oh the things i could put in them…  leaves, twigs, feathers, bugs, i could go on but you get the point.

and i just so happen to have some of dexter’s baby teeth. i’ve been holding on to them in a small jar but i love the idea of displaying them in one of these. does that seem weird?

mmm… doughnuts

05.17.10

when it comes to sweets cupcakes will always be my first love. but doughnuts, well who doesn’t love a good doughnut every now and again?

while picking up a few goodies for dexter i came across these and scooped them up immediately.  he loved them (shocking, i know).

if you have a pup in your life that needs a doughnut fix you can get these and a few other cute treats right here.

more fair news…

05.11.10

twist was great! i really want to put together a post to talk about all the super talented people who were there but at the moment i’m crazed.

in other news i’m going to be at two craft fairs this coming weekend - one in austin and one in philadelphia.  how you ask? cloning? time travel? nope, clay wood & cotton is going to have a booth at both events and they’re taking my work with them.

if you attend either let me know! i’d love to hear how both shows are.

twist fair

05.06.10

it’s that time of year again!  i’m off to northampton, ma. tomorrow to participate in the twist fair. one of my favorite fairs, it’s run by very cool people and held in an absolutely beautiful space.  if you’re in the area it’s definitely worth checking out. and hopefully i’ll remember to bring my camera this weekend, i forgot to bring it to the show at the brooklyn lyceum.

happy weekend, be back monday!
