Finished a third “Snow gal” stocking for a family in Fresno! They’ve ordered them three separate times. The first time we established the colors and trim, so for each subsequent stocking we just updated the snow gal based on clipart they submitted.

Yes, I am still taking commissions for this year, but haven’t been talking about it too much because I still have four stockings, two advent calendars and a tree skirt staring me down.

Our firstborn moved into his dorm today! He’s been personalizing his space since this photo, but we told him he had to take a pic with mom and dad before we’d leave. 😂

I’m sure if he weren’t a car ride away, I’d have bawled my eyes out today. Very excited for him as he digs in to art school.

Working through projects that have been on the work table a bit too long. Felt flowers inspired by a Finnish design house for the incomparable Tara. Her wish is my command!

Did I French that caption correctly? Didn’t feel like proofing any further than the French already in my brain.

My kid made a string art whaleshark at the senior overnight party! (He looked at the provided templates and decided to create his own.❤️)

I did the heavy lifting behind the arts and crafts room, wanting to create a chill space for creativity so kids could relax after, or instead of, activities including swimming or skating.

Available activities included string art, bracelet bar, coloring, origami, and temporary tattoo bar.

There were lots of memorable moments, but I wasn’t gonna make it weird by taking pictures at the senior party.

Thanks to local wood-reclaiming company for having great-quality lumber that I could repurpose for the string art bases! Thanks to Beau and Lachlan for the cutting and staining, respectively.

This girl enjoyed her senior party so much, she’s  chaperoning for her son’s tonight!
