I wanted to share a few ideas for some fun DIY projects to fill your weekend. I can live vicariously through the projects you have time to tackle, since I will be working on displays for my upcoming trade show in Vegas, but wishing I was making one of these! ...
It might be a little obvious that I have been pretty busy lately with the lack of posts coming your way. I spent July finishing the studio and running around on the West Coast for 3 shows. I basically took the one of the slower times of year and made...
At this years Renegade Craft Fair in Austin I had a little help from Katie and Maggie, which allowed me to finally take time to check out the show, meet new makers, and grow budding friendships. I found so many great new artists and I wanted to share my favorites...
I stumbled across this DIY of a concrete base bedside lamp from nimi design, and fell in love. Now that we are pretty much finished with the renovation of our house, I finally get to focus on the fun things and little touches here and there. A new bedside lamp...
With so many babies running around in my world these days, I find myself enjoying children’s toys, clothing and decor a lot more lately. I ran across these soft toys by UK artist Jane Foster and just love them all! Influenced by Scandinavian design and textiles from the 50s and...
I really loved researching my first Gift Collective post {Do-It-Yourself Gifts} and I knew I wanted to do another before the season was out. This DIY guide focuses on the hardest of them all to shop for, the men! For this holiday, we are trying to make all of the...
Well, it is that time of year again and the holiday’s are upon us! Wasn’t it just last week that it was 80 degrees? {Oh yeah, that was last week!} To help us out a bit, over the next few weeks I am going to bring you some gift selections...
I took a day last week to knock a lot of wedding stuff off the list {that’s right, I am getting married!}. One of the more fun projects on the list was to start working on our invitations. I have a linoleum block of two turtle doves, carved by my...
I cant believe we are already half way through October! WHOA! That means that Feliz is fast approaching and as I mentioned before, I am teaching a workshop as part of the weekend long event! Saturday November 3rd I will be teaching a 3 hour Riveted Pendant Workshop at Casa...
If you don’t already know, fail is participating in the Feliz Holiday Sale this November, and I am also excited to announce that I am teaching a workshop as part of the weekend long event! Saturday November 3rd I will be teaching a 3 hour Riveted Pendant Workshop at Casa...
We have been putting the finishing touches on the interior of our never-ending remodel that is our little house in East Austin. It is pretty exciting to be beyond the hard but less aesthetically rewarding work {like insulation, hanging sheetrock, central heat & air, and new windows}, and moving into...
I was instantly struck by the macrame from Jessie Willow Tucker featured in today’s email from EditionX. Something about the scale and color that just felt so fresh and light. Yes, macrame is making a bit of a comeback, mostly in planter form but also as decorative wall art, and...
I was challenged this week when trying to come up with a jewelry DIY as a guest post for the lovely Austin blog, If I Must Say So. Instead of trying to find common yet interesting materials and incorporate them into a design that was worthy of being associated with...
I went into my stationery drawer this morning to grab a thank you card and rediscovered some wonderful cards that Jessica made for me a few years back. These little customized note cards are so easy its silly that I haven’t made more and shared the love. With a modern...
Wow! Last week was a bit crazy with both WEST and Renegade Austin, but with the help of my new assistant extraordinaire, Sara, we conquered it! It took a little time to get the shop and the studio back in order but now I am feeling ready to tackle new...
I found this DIY in my daily Remodelista email this morning and wanted to share it with you {they snagged the DIY from 3191 Miles Apart}. I am always wanting something better than a kitchen brush and nicer than a sponge. This is the perfect compromise and is totally a...
