My New Favorite Gretchen & Elloise Necklace!!


This makes me feel like a secret super hero:) I am sort of obsessed with this tiny little lightning bolt. PS, I wish someone gave this to me as a gift, because I would assume they also thought I had super powers... you can find one here

Taste of Winter!

A little bit of what I've been working on for winter (yes, it's coming, just get your jacket and scarf and go with it:)

Studio Makeover!


So, we were going to move, then we weren't moving, then we decided to stay in our house for a very long time after all. Because of the possible transition, I haven't really set up our space as well as I'd like to. So, I decided that I will "makeover" every room in my house (to some degree) - starting with my studio! It was in need of some serious organization and cheer, especially now since it's not only me working in here all the time....
Here it is before:

messy mess mess
and now after!






So clean and organized (thanks Lacey!!!)Now on to the next projects:)

Heathy Gr-umble

I saw The Barefoot Contessa making a peach and raspberry cobbler on tv last week and I've been dying to make one. But since I had half a chocolate cake and 2 scoops of Ben & Jerry's this weekend, I was feeling a bit guilty about making a cobbler on top of all that. I decided to make a healthy version with no sugar or butter. It turned out wonderful and *very addictive*.

Just grease a casserole dish and cut up peaches, and mix with raspberries.

Heat the oven to 320 and make this healthy granola recipe (minus the dried fruit). I added a little agave nectar, ground flax seeds, and a lot of cinnamon to the granola. Top the fruit with the granola, and bake for 27ish minutes. It's good warm but best after it's chilled.

yum! and pretty guilt free.

San Francisco ~ Seattle Road Trip


I just got back from a 13 day road trip, complete with 2 gift shows, girl time, and so.much.fun. The gift shows totally exceeded my (sometimes unfairly high) expectations and I'm so grateful for both harlow's growth, and the amazing people in my life. Here is my trip in a nutshell...
