TAKE IT


Take that step. Take that risk. Believe in your capabilities.

It’s ok to not know everything, just trust that first stair. Chances are the next one will appear sooner than you think.

But you have to take that step.…

Retro Rooms

Stumbled upon these bright retro photos from old homes. I kind of love the bravery of whoever decided to paint their kitchen like this. Not sure I have the guts to do something like that – and I’m positive my husband doesn’t. Nor does he want to :)

But I did take the chance to pull a summery color palette out of these awesome photos!
Summer is almost over – that makes me sad… Pulling out every last bit I can!

DIY Wine Bottle Animal Stopper

Hey friends! Happy Tuesday- it’s time for another DIY with Grace over here. I’m especially excited about this one. Ever have a bottle of wine that you want to save, but just cannot get that cork back inside? This DIY will help out, and in style :)

What you’ll need:
Glue gun/glue sticks
Cork stoppers
White spray paint
Some animal friends (I bought mine at a farm supply store)

1. Give the little guys their first coat of paint. Don’t worry about covering everywhere, as they will need several coats.2. Spray another coat onto the animals, and make sure you turn them upside down, side to side and back on their feet to cover every bit of them.

3. After they have dried, take your glue gun and dab an even amount of glue on the animals belly (or directly onto the corks top). Then stick the animal to the cork!

4. Repeat with all of your chosen critters, and let them dry for a minute or two.

5. Pop them on your favorite wine and enjoy their sweet drink savin abilities!

Summer Suits

So I’m going to be out of town all next week. And when I say out of town, I mean totally no internet, phone or computer… I have to be honest- I’m kinda nervos! Unplugging happens so rarely- most of the time when I go out of town I still work- I have my laptop, I’m in touch with clients over phone, etc. But not this time! I know it will be great for my head and heart to get away from work and internet land for awhile… I’m just going a bit crazy preparing for it this week!

For our trip, we’re headed to Lake Shasta to live on a houseboat for a week. I’m expecting to live in my bathing suit the entire time. And for that reason alone, I’m pretty stoked!

So I drew a little illustration (trying to do that more often!) of a girl in a cute little summer suit- getting myself inspired for the trip!

Have you guys been on a summer vacation yet? Had to totally unplug? I hope you get the chance!!

Happy Wednesday!…

Off Switch Magazine Illustration

I wanted to show you guys a little illustration I did for Off Switch Magazine V3- which is now out in print and available for order!

My illustration was for a story by Meg Fee about her move to Brooklyn, NY.

I don’t get a ton of opportunities to do illustration, so when Katie from Off Switch came to me asking if I would be available, I jumped at the chance!

You can preview the magazine here and order it here :)

Happy Monday everyone!…
