hello again.

well...it's been a while, eh?

no worries though, i've still been making things. and one thing in particular is quite an adventure in the making.

 

baby sharp. coming soon.

in less than a month actually. i've been quite delinquent here. i've got a lot to share though. and tons of baby related projects on my mind.

craspedia.

i feel like i've seen these flowers all over the internet the past couple of years, but i've never noticed them in the store--until last saturday when i saw them in kroger, of all places. it was clearly meant to be.

i picked some up and tossed them in a carafe as a quick hostess gift for my friend melissa, who was hosting a dinner that night.

super cute, eh? and a bright little pick me up for these dreary winter days.

from grace.

grace is one of my favorite people. and a fantastic maker. and only fifteen, which means the world needs to watch out. look what she made me and jon for christmas!

she made me the sequined gold tree in the middle. you should see it in real life. it's crazy impressive. each sequine was individually pinned on. like i said, crazy.

i think it goes quite swell with the glittered hippo and the two paper trees i made a few years ago.

 and for jon, she made this narwhal ornament.

 gah, so much cuteness. grace, i love you!

and yes, my house is still decorated for christmas. don't judge.
