Happy Holidays!






We're spending Christmas here at home in Chicago this year and had fun getting the apartment in the holiday spirit. I hope you have an amazing holiday and eat way too many cookies!

Wish List {part 2}


I keep trying to pick my favorite Marañón necklace and I just can't do it. They are all 100% awesome.

I'm drooling over this cashmere shawl by A Peace Treaty. Can you hear me, Santa?

2009 Ornament


I decided to make a 2009 holiday ornament this year. I've been playing around with my paper mache process and these ornaments were a great chance to experiment. I've tried ornaments in the past but I couldn't really figure out how to translate my work in the right way. They always turned out feeling a little forced. With these guys I feel like I've stayed true to my design sense. They are clean, simple, and reference the classic ball ornament while also maintaining a sculptural element. The red and white bakers twine adds a more direct holiday reference (and my tiny move away from my die-hard color palate).

These bad boys are now available only in my Etsy shop. Enjoy!
