If you live anywhere near Brooklyn, you must come check out @industrycity this weekend! In addition to Open Studios that you can tour during @wanteddesign week, you can also get your own craft on and learn a new skill at @craftinfocusnewyork! ✂️ I’m teaching an intro to screen printing workshop where kids (or you!) will design your own screen, and then print it onto a tote bag, a bandana, and a poster. Click the link in my profile to sign up for a slot on Sunday, May 19! ✂️🎨
Warning...I'm about to mix craft and politics, or, rather, human rights, so if this doesn't interest you, just scroll on or simply admire my daughter's crafted #yellowhammer bird sculpture. . I'm trying to find the right / motivational / inspired words to address this abortion-ban trend that is sweeping our nation, from the bottom (South) up...my home state of Georgia, Alabama, where even pregnancies caused by rape or abortion legally must now be carried to term, Ohio, Mississippi, Arkansas, Kentucky, Utah and more. But I keep writing and erasing and rewriting all over again. . I don't necessarily believe that I'm going to change any minds with this post, but I do want to implore you to do what you can to speak out against this devastating trend. If you can't afford to give money, then maybe volunteer to be a clinic escort. It's not just the states with bans that need to protect women...this needs to happen everywhere. There's a link in my profile that will direct you to ways to help, including donating to @yellowfund (the #YellowhammerFund) an organization funding abortion and building power in Alabama. . My daughter brought home this yellowhammer bird craft from school a few weeks ago, and it just felt like the right picture to post today.
Guys, why are we even at work and school today? It’s #internationalpaperflowerday! Yes, it’s a real thing and if you didn’t know about all of the amazing female artists making INSANELY GORGEOUS paper flowers, then I’ll just say you’re welcome. These are the best of the best! (And then I threw in a little workshop shot of mine at the end where we made flowers out of cupcake liners and straws! But seriously, i don’t even stand my soil with these talented women!) @houselarsbuilt @tiffanieturner @supermakeit @thussfarrell @corriebethmakes 💐🌷🌹🌺🥀🌻🌼🌸
Understated and a bit more sophisticated than your typical #mothersday #macaroninecklace, these are so easy to make, you can craft one in every color of the rainbow! And if you live near #brooklyn, bring your kids to @industrycity on Sunday from 11 to 1 to make mom, grandma, or any fabulous momma in your life a last minute bauble! Swipe 👉🏼 to see the steps or visit the profile link!
Happy #cincodemayo, party people! These little #cactus #piñatas are from a super-fun mini #piñata book I designed with @klutzcertified! 🌵
Have you ever heard of Cri du Chat Syndrome (also knows as 5p minus)? It's a rare genetic disorder caused by a deletion on the short arm of the 5th chromosome, and results in a wide range of intellectual and developmental disabilities. The name, Cri du Chat, means “cat’s cry” in French because of the high pitched cries many of the children have at birth. Since the disorder is so rare and not well known even in the medical field, diagnosis can often be delayed. With early interventions and the proper support, children are better able to reach their highest potential. 🧦 So today, on May 5th, we are helping raise awareness and asking YOU to show your support for Cri du Chat by wearing one long and one short stripey sock, to represent the deletion of a portion of the short arm of the 5th chromosome and post your pics for the @stripeysockcampaign . 🧦 @stripeysockcampaign has partnered with @purlsoho, using their sock pattern and Posy yarn, to knit striped socks in bright, fun color and stripe combos. If you visit the site today (link in profile and stories!) they will donate 10% of the proceeds of the sale of their yarn to @5pminus. 🧦 #criduchatawareness #fivepminus #purlsoho #purlsohobusyhands #purlsohostripeysocks #purlsohoposy #stripeysockcampaign
It’s my annual #maythe4th post of my most favorite display of #starwars love ever! I actually met @wonderthreads IRL, the originator of this cupcake #hack this year, and I heard the story behind this #cupcaketopper and how people continually email to ask to buy it! So Happy #maythe4thbewithyou day and thanks @wonderthreads for the annual repostable content!
One of my most favorite projects that I did for @therealbluprint of the year...this wristlet cake pincushion made from #makeup sponges. When @cyaghjian and I first made this we had the intention of using it as a #DIY #squishie, but as we were brainstorming ideas for a #pincushion craft, this just stuck out to us (pun intended). You can have your cake and stitch it too! 🎂
How do you go on a road trip with your family when you don't own a car? We are city dwellers, and have managed to make it work without owning a car, and while at times it's a juggle and a tight squeeze to make getting from point A to point B easy, we have been able to function on public transportation, taxis, and the like. Except for when we need a weekend away. . Last week was spring break and we tried out @turo for the first time to enjoy some R&R in the #catskills. We picked our car (among so many options), chose our pick-up spot, and that was it. So easy, so smooth, so seamless, and no waiting in a line for a grumpy employee to hand you your keys. We are hooked. 🚘#drivelikeaboss #sponsored
