It’s beginning to look a bit like #Easter... 🐰 (photo by @alexandrarowley)
Sommer’s first grade teachers encourage the kids to research the holidays and present what they learn to the class. My child likes to take it to the next level! We found our stash of pre-cut paper people and gave him a total makeover! She’s so proud of little Otis! 🌈🍀 ✨
I was on set with @therealbluprint today, showing how to use an embroidery hoop for #silkscreening. I can’t wait for the video to go live so I can show you this mind-blowingly simple technique! In the meantime, feeling totally inspired by this lovely spring palette that I used! 🎨
When someone asks Sommer what she wants to be when she grows up, she says a scientist, a crafter, and a candy maker. Yes, yes, and yes! As @michelleobama says in her book, why do we presume that someone will grow up to be just one thing? Celebrating being a complicated, empathic, and multifaceted woman with Sommer on this #internationalwomensday ✨ (Oh and happy 60th birthday, @barbie! Astronaut, chef, beekeeper, Doctor—you’ve accomplished a lot in your 60 years!) ✨
One of the spoils of my job is that I constantly get to learn new things. Right now I’m working on #macrame, #silkscreening, #resinjewelry making, and sculptural #origami. And each project had me watching @youtube videos and making lots of beautiful messes. But I love it all, and 🤞🏻the messes turn to magic. #crafttherainbow 🌈
Add some flair to a plain @ikeausa chair...don’t mind if I do! Here’s a recent video I did with my crafty friends over at @therealbluprint 🌺🌸🌺
Every single jump I've made in my career has been through obscure connections. If my cousin wasn't married to an art lover, I never would have landed that first gallery job. If my boss hadn't dated that lifestyle guru, I never would have become a professional crafter. If my work wife's best friend wasn't a book designer, I never would have landed that book deal. I could go on and on and on. 📓 My dream job (yes, the one that I CURRENTLY have) has grown completely from talking to people, brainstorming, and then leaping. But it's a job that changes from day to day, project to project, gig to gig, and I couldn't do it without @linkedin. The fact that I am able to put a forward-facing profile together that advertises this niche market that I'm in is everything. I can post on other social networks til I'm blue in the face, but the place I get discovered is #LinkedIn. 📒 So I'm taking the LinkedIn Plus One Pledge, committing to helping at least one person connect towards their dream job. (And as a serial match-maker, nothing makes me happier!) Join me because when we are #InItTogether, we add importance and gravitas to the industries in which we work. And let's be honest, this world can use a little more arts & crafts! #ad
Here's a funny thing...my son Oliver only has a half birthday every four years. Yes, he was born August 29th so his his half is on February 29th. Every year at the end of February, we try to figure out how and when we are going to "celebrate"...is it February 28th or March 1st? If I lived on the edge, I'd wake him up at midnight in between the two and wish him a Happy Half, but that's not happening for obvious reasons. 🎈 Do you celebrate your kids' #halfbirthday? I prefer a little nod, rather than a big, overblown gesture. This year, I am going to give Oliver three "yes" tickets...he can turn them in (within reason) for things that I'd typically say no to. Like maybe an extra piece of chocolate or staying up a little later. When I was an editor at @parentsmagazine, I wrote a story about low-cost birthday traditions, and that was one of them, where this photo by @alexandragrablewski is from. 🎈
Hey NYers! Have you visited @campstores yet? If not, run don’t walk! Or instead jog, and meet me there at 11am on Saturday, March 2nd for a fun crafting sesh. Don’t forget to bring your kid! 🎨 Info for registration via link in my bio. (Oh, and we are making these cute box cars!) #craftsthatgo #campstores #projectkid
