So excited to hit up the Thread Show event this Saturday at the Fort Mason center, in San Francisco. It’s a great opportunity see some emerging artists and new fashion designers. Tons of creative folks getting together to showcase their goods.

Lace Luminaires Comments Off

This holiday season I’m all about the homemade decorations. There are so many amazing things you can do with some paper, scissors and tape; the possibilities are just endless!

This thanksgiving, I’ve made some lace luminaries! The best part is that most of the items you can find at home. I’ve printed some lace patterns found on the web onto ink-jet friendly vellum sheets. Cut out some strips and wrapped them around my vases. Place a small tea light in the middle and Voilà! So easy and so much fun! For some other lantern ideas on the web click here and here!

Ju-Ju Sauce Comments Off

One of my newest projects is a label for a home-made chicken marinade called Ju-Ju Sauce. Here are two options I’ve been working on. The idea was to pitch a middle-eastern/french provencal look as well as a more generic label. (a major ingredient is garam masala) I really enjoy working on projects like this, so much ability to flex some creative ideas. Thanks for stopping by!
