Little Paper Planes Roundup

I am a huge fan of Little Paper Planes– my Louis Reith prints are some of my favorite pieces of art in the house.  Now that Lacey Richter’s works are coming down at Schatzelein, I was once again on the hunt for some art to frame and decorate the wall...

WEST & Haley Lebeuf

The first annual WEST Austin Studio Tour is upon us this weekend and fail Studios is participating as an official stop {stop #025}!  WEST,  the sister tour to the popular EAST held every fall in East Austin, is a self guided trek through Austin’s extraordinary creative culture.  Artists open their...

Callen Thompson

I just discovered Austin artist and textile designer Callen Thompson and wanted to share some of her drawings and prints with you. You can learn more about Callen on her website, she where she calls home on her recent Apartment Therapy House Tour, and can buy some of her prints...

Studio Visit, Verena Junghans

After an afternoon of hiking and castle-ruin-exploring in Southern Germany, my aunt and uncle took us to a small gasthof and restaurant in Blaesiberg.  On the bottom floor was the inviting studio of porcelain artist Verena Junghans.  With such lovely and delicate pieces with colorful and organic details, we couldn’t...

Eames House

A few weeks ago we checked out the documentary Eames: The Architect and The Painter and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I am an artist and a designer, however, did not study “design” in school, so I really don’t have much context outside of general aesthetic appreciation for well designed objects.  The...

No Popcicle Sticks Here!

I found artist Jay Mohler today on Etsy and was floored when I started looking closer at his work.  The color attracted me immediately, but when I realize the scale and the intricacy I was even more impressed. Jay started making Ojos de Dios in his “hippie days” in the...

Some warmth for a dreary day

Happy New Year!  What an amazing week off!  I am now much more prepared to tackle spring with a little R&R with my man. So, back to the grind we go… I was perusing Miss Moss today {quite possibly my new favorite go-to blog} and came across Matthew Korbel Bowers. ...

Finnish Himmeli Mobiles {DIY}

Yep, I am talking about mobiles again!  I know, I am sorry, but I was just so excited when I opened my daily inspiration email from Remodelista with a DIY tutorial on Finiish Himmeli Modiles, and I just have to share it with you.  I am getting majorly inspired by...

Gift Collective – For the Bibiliophile by Domy

Today’s installment of the Gift Collective comes from Russell Etchen of Domy Books.  Domy is one of those stores you can spend hours in, thumbing through beautifully put together books and playing with art inspired toys and ephemera.  Domy, along with Big Red Sun and OK Mountain , was one...

Collective Community {Kiel Mead & American Design Club}

One thing I love about Austin is the community of creative, driven, intelligent, supportive, and compassionate individuals that all seem way too happy to help each other out.  It really is an entire philosophy where colleagues and contemporaries are not seen as competition but as friends, collaborators, and contributors to...

Mobiles {again!}

I love mobiles and have been on a kick for a while.  I recently purchased an amazing hand embroidered mobile from Specks & Keepings, hurriedly, in the final minutes of the Renegade Handmade Festival in Chicago {I had zero time to leave my booth, but it was probably a good...

Tool & Tack Pop-Up and Giveaway

I am so excited to finally give you all the details on the Tool & Tack Pop-Up shop happening this weekend.  Natalie and I have, in typical last minute fashion, finished all the pieces and are posting them online as we speak.  We were even lucky enough to garner some...

Aaron Farley {artist}

I just sold the set of Louis Reith prints from the shop.  Although I was really sad to see them go, I am comforted by the fact that I have another set at home and am excited that now I get to find the next artist to put onto the...

Gees Bend

Since I am thinking quilts, I immediately remembered my love for the quilts by the women of Gees Bend.   If you don’t already know about the quilts from Gees Bend, then I am excited to show them to you! In relative isolation, the women of Gees Bend, a small...

Amateur Couture

I have to thank Heidi for directing me to Amateur Couture today!  Lately I have been a bit of a hater on blogs that just re-post pictures without content or direction, however this site does it thoughtfully and with a purpose. Visually, it hits the mark but it also allows...

I cant find the original source for this picture so I’ll just thank Whitney from pinterest.  Filed under: art
