wish list

with all this talk of fall, and leaves, i have been thinking alot
about boots lately.
i like these, these and these.
what about you?

happy fall!

October has now become my favorite month,
with the sunshine, chilly mornings, and the necessity
of scarves and jackets. Although, the rain has started this morning.
Last night was the book signing for A Year of Mornings : 3191 miles apart.
it was so lovely to meet mav and stephanie, and see their beautiful photo pairs!
today is my studio day, which i am excited about.
also, later this afternoon, a coworker and i are headed to pinkham millnery,
to see how they work, and see their beautiful work.
hope you have a good halloween!

repeat

i can't wait for this show/sale!
my friend alisha of palindrome press will be there, and
i'm excited to see what she and others have been cooking
up for it! there will be lots of handmade gifts for under $50!

small shop update

i just added a few journals to my shop.
hope you are staying warm today!

i can't wait!

abby has started an online shop again!
she has some beautiful prints in right now,
and i snapped up the one above.
i'm so excited to get it in the mail from
my flickr friend!

chairs

these prints are based on an illustration by my late grandfather,
who was an illustrator and commercial artist.
he took line drawings of chairs, and put them into one pattern.
i then took it, enlarged it, changed it some, and repeated the pattern.
i love it. i have a special attachment to it.
i want to reupholster all our dining room chair seats with it.
i think i will!

lately

i've been working on projects.
i'm in a holiday sale in late november, and
i will have a whole chunk of stuff there, including:
+ letterpressed journals
+letterpressed cards
+ screenprinted wrapping paper
+ limited edition screenprinted totes

i will post more info when the publicity comes out.

welcome!

greetings! i hope you will enjoy what you see here. sneak peeks into my life, work and play. enjoy. -c
