I know you all probably have the impression that we sit around here with our feet up, sipping fancy summer drinks and grilling on the roof…but I swear we do some work, too!
This last week has been a particularly busy one, putting together a lot of letterpress quotes for printing projects, working on some new […]

Despite the seemingly constant drizzle, we’ve managed to have a pretty wonderful time of things over this long weekend…a little grilling (which I think made Matt ready to move to the suburbs, just for a yard), some very healthy rooftop plants that are a sure sign it’s nearly mid-July, and fireworks all around!

I am my mother’s daughter…

Lately, I don’t even find myself making excuses for all the mornings and evenings of folding and trimming and sewing. I just love it a little too much and that’s just how it’s gonna be.
Today was a welcome day off which, right in line with my track record, ended up being one of the […]

It’s been a busy weekend of finishing up a couple of albums and some invitation pieces. We made it outside for brief errands, but mostly tried to stay in the A/C, since it was about 90 degrees and somewhere close to 100% humidity for most of the weekend. There were a few amazing […]

Needless to say, it has been one busy week around here! Tomorrow, we’re taking a much needed break and heading out of town, just for the day, to the Dia:Beacon.
In the meantime, the other set of invites, RSVPs, direction cards & envelopes I just finished up!
These are all done […]
So purely and lushly new

You did say you wanted to see lots of pictures, right?
The truly gorgeous cherry tree that climbs higher than our building and is - despite the best efforts of the old abandoned, dilapidated building behind ours - thriving and producing some pretty beautiful fruit, not to mention some stunning summer colors.
And […]

One color down, one to go! Last night was a printing marathon of the latest batch of invitations, which I’m printing on Crane’s Lettra in ecru with a combination of a gorgeous copper ink for the text and fuchsia for the floral decorative elements. Copper is done, fuchsia later in the week! […]

Looking, Walking, Being

“The World is not something to look at, it is something to be in.”

I look and look.
Looking’s a way of being: one becomes,
sometimes, a pair of eyes walking.
Walking wherever looking takes one.
The eyes

Paper, paper, paper!

I said our apartment was going to be filled with paper and ink and, well, I meant it!
Also…some fun new albums in the works and a few new ones that should hit Etsy soon:
Enjoy!
