This week has been BANANAS! Between working with clients, I have been helping my felt fantastic friend, Sew Your Soul in her NYC Pop-Up. If you are in NYC or planning to visit the city within the next two weeks, make this a priority! Each piece is hand sewn, painted and almost all are sign by Lucy.

Each vegetable is separated and stored in a container. They’re separated by color however the “likes” are together. They’re clearly labelled so you know what is ... read more
Holy guacamole - it has been a minute since I wrote a blog post. Not that I don't have a gazillion ideas and every intention of posting them, I just have been a very busy business owner.

My friends are a crafty lot. Whereas by day their creativity might be conservatively contained in a cubicle, at home it comes out in spades. I love seeing how collections are displayed, color palettes integrated and storage issues solved. This particular friend moved from a dark 1 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn to bright highrise studio in lower ... read more
It has been an interesting week in lower Manhattan. Living with 2 bulldogs without electricity, heat, water & internet/cell service has given me a lot of time to contemplate candle light.
