serve it up

2.29.2012

you could serve anything up on this beautiful tray. maria kristofersson’s ceramic pieces really inspire me. i love the subtle imperfections . . . and the handmade feel of the platter. i’d love to serve up a cup of tea to a friend who love the handmade goods as much as i do.

seinfood posters

2.28.2012

i love seinfeld. its got to be one of my all-time favorite shows! so when i found these seinfood posters from the san francisco based kitchenwares store, pot + pan. created by the artist rinee shah, they are subtle enough to still be enjoyable even if you’ve never seen the show. i love that!

i need more florals in my life

2.28.2012

a little bit of floral print goes a long way, but my world is lacking even just the tiniest bit of florals! i think i’ve got to fix this!  this floral rug could really help out.

 

looking up

2.27.2012

i can feel that i’m getting closer to finding my career path. i’m not exactly sure how to verbalize what it is i want to do with my life, but i can tell you that lately it is all i can think about. i feel that by continuing to blog and put effort into making and selling my ceramics, that i am getting one step closer to finding exactly what i want to do. things are on the up & up!

the old & fancy light in my bedroom.

the ones that got away

2.27.2012

i always find great things on etsy that have already sold. bummer! they get to exist in someone else’s collection . . . i should act faster next time.

mix & match

2.27.2012

i like that all of these dining chairs don’t match. and the cushions are all a little different too. just my kind of comfortable living area.

do more

2.27.2012

yesterday i was a pretty lazy human being. it felt good, but not as good as it feels to accomplish something big. i promise to do a little more than just exist today . . .

the best of business cards

2.26.2012

all i can think about these days are getting some professional-looking business cards. i need something that i can hand out to people who are interested in what i do. working part-time at a small deli here in town has me meeting a lot of people, and some people are truly interested in seeing what i do! its time to start handing them something other than a coaster with my website scratched across it . . . here are some that have me wanting my own, like now!

i love the brightly colored edges on this one!

i’m starting to warm up to the idea of a non-traditional shape . . . square perhaps?

and then i’m reminded of my friend kaley’s business cards. they are stunning! the rounded corners, the matte finish . . . paired with her photographs, its just perfect. (on this particular card is my friend samantha and her tiny baby willa!)  i might have to take the route she took, designing my own cards from moo! hmm, lots to think about!

the show

2.26.2012

luke‘s show was so great! we had such a good time talking with family and friends about the show, and i am pretty sure everyone enjoyed the art. i am so proud of him. he’s worked so hard for the last 3 years, and now big things are coming his way!

the handsome artist himself!

look at that cute baby girl! she really wants whatever jesse has on his plate . . .

luke and i are so thankful for the help and support we received from family and friends!
