This last weekend, my sister and I hosted a baby shower for our sister-in-law Morgan. Morgan is due in just a couple weeks. We had it at my sister’s new house and it turned out great. I wanted to show you how to do a couple quick and cheap decorating projects! The first [...] My long-time friend, Denae, had her baby shower this weekend. She had asked me awhile back if she could commission me to do some paintings for her baby’s nursery. I thought, yeah, and actually that would be a good gift for me to give her for her shower. So she sent me some color [...] I love globes. I love them big, small, old, and new. I have been collecting them for the past couple of years. I have way too many for my small apartment to hold. I’ve been seeing some neat things done to globes on Pinterest and thought I might try something out! {Visit my Pinterest [...] My friends Kelly and Andrew make up the duo of the award-winning design team, Basemint. They were up for (and won!) two ADDY awards and the ceremony was held last weekend. As friends, we went to show our support. The event was held at the Hoyt Sherman, and it was a classy affair.

We do a gift [...] This Christmas break was unusual for me for one reason. I had a lot of extra time on my hands and for once, I didn’t paint. The time leading up to the break, I spent a lot of time on commissions for people as well as working on some Christmas gifts of my own. [...]
My friend Kelly and I still give each other gifts for our birthdays. Now that I think about it, she’s really one of the last friends that regularly exchanges gifts with me. I think it’s fun. I always get the best gifts from Kelly. She always makes them super creative and thoughtful. The gift [...] As some of you know, our brother Jacob got married about a month ago to his beautiful bride Morgan. Jessie wrote about their engagement last fall. I had a lot of fun helping out with wedding invitations and decorations for their wedding. Morgan has a great eye for design and had some great [...]
Over the weekend, I acquired a chair. This is no ordinary chair. I’ll blog about this chair later. But it’s awesome. It’s green and awesome. I’m now rearranging my living room around this chair. I had a large painting on my wall that I did probably 6 years ago. It was painted pinks and [...] |
