Our week has been full of preparing the new work to add to the shop and getting great photos taken of everything – this stage is always more time consuming than I’d like it to be, no matter how hard I try!
We’re going to try and be busy little bees today, and I’m definitely planning [...]

There are so many people and experiences in our lives that make us who we are and I would hazard a guess that very few of them have to do with the specific work we find ourselves doing each day yet, here we are working away and we know they had something to do with [...]

My mom is amazing with mail. She sends incredible packages and letters and the one that showed up on our steps on Valentine’s Eve was no exception. There were heaps of fun clothes for Charlotte, chocolates for us, and Burt’s Bees like you wouldn’t believe (this is one great smelling kid!). On top, though, was [...]

It seems like everyone I know has had at least one day this week that just stunk. It’s early February, it’s grey, it’s cold and, as one of our good friends in Iowa likes to say, it’s the “bottom of winter”.
We’re doing our best to fight off the February malaise with bright colors, a little [...]

Someone almost has birth announcements!
Please tell me there’s some sort of grace period when you print your own announcements. There are still photos to adhere, but I’m very happy with how those colors look! Really, she’s only (!) 4 months old…4 months isn’t *that* long, right?!?
Mixing ink
Lunchtime reading with Sophie
Like I said, we’ve really been [...]

While bouncing around with Charlotte this morning, we took a look through a great book I hadn’t flipped through since last summer. Drawing from Life: The Journal as Art by Jennifer New (a fellow Iowan!) is a great look inside the visual journals of people ranging from David Byrne and Maira Kalman to a geologist, [...]

(To see what in the world I’m talking about, here’s Part 1)
My dad is here this week and we’re (he’s) getting our apartment seriously organized and outfitted with much-needed shelving he’s built for us (although anyone can see he’s really made the trip to visit my 2 feet, 2 inches tall assistant!).
This year, [...]

It’s obvious, it’s cliché, but its so true: how did it get to be December 1st?!? Between work and life (which my mom will remind me are often the same thing), here we are…30 days away from 2010. Yowza.
I want to do something totally different from my usual posts this time around. I want to [...]

Just a reminder that there’s still plenty of time to order personalized holiday cards! Maybe those little snow angels are calling your name, or champagne bubbles…or Orion in the winter sky?
Speaking of holiday cards, my Grandfather Bud drew a Christmas card every year that he would have printed and send to friends and [...]
It’s H-O-T. Summer finally caught up with New York City and it is finally sunny, humid, and, well, August.
Though our main goals throughout the day seem to involve coolness and hydration, I’m also managing to get a fair amount of work done, including getting closer and closer to having samples ready of [...]
