LATELY : IN THE STUDIO

October is flying by already and I can already feel the hustle and bustle of fall start to creep in. Florida has been kind to us and we had a little breeze this week, it's so exciting. I can't wait to wear boots!

  The above photos are a few new things added to the shop lately.  My skull print is one of my favorites, originally created for Halloween a few years back.  I like to try and decorate for holidays but I don't always appreciate the colors associated with said holiday so I mostly stick to my muted scheme and make it work - hence the pastel skull and white pumpkins! The vegetable print got added to the shop and I think it's going to be adorable paired with the already existing fruits and/or herbs.  Finally, a few new cards and I am trying to get my Christmas greetings wrapped up here soon! Visit my Etsy here to shop these items.

We head to New York this weekend for work and play.  I'm just excited Hunter was able to get off work and come with me for once.  So we booked an extra night to make sure we see all of our favorite NYC humans and of course do a little sightseeing / exploring. 

Also, American Horror Story starts tonight with Lady Gaga. I'm dying. Anyone else a big fan?  I have a few friends who are fan girls like me so it's always fun to text on commercials and be like what just happened? haha. 

Hope you all are having a lovely week!

HELLO NOVEMBER {AN OCTOBER ROUNDUP}

A few work and life snippets from October.  Such a good month, always… 

 WORK:  I slowed down on custom for hot minute to work on some illustrations and products I've really been wanting to create for my shop. I can't wait to receive samples back from my printer and have them available in the coming weeks.  I've been working on some Christmas items as well, more on those very soon!  The second photo is from a photo shoot for a colloboration that we'll be announcing later in the week. I updated my shop with a handful of new greeting cards, listed some past holiday favorites, and new suites from the summer that are now available for customization.  Check out the new listings here!

 HOME:  We decorated for fall just a tiny bit with the cutest heirloom pumpkins from Trader Joes.  I hung some of my vintage paintings in the dining room, they've been needing a home for awhile.  Twiggy has enjoyed laying on the table and basking in the sun from our back windows.  We enjoyed pumpkin everything, including these bagels from Trader Joes.  Lastly, I began painting and reforming my walk-in closet, I'm probably a little too excited about this room of the house.  I decided on a very dark accent wall (the rest white of course). Before and after photos to come! 

LIFE:  The weather was finally cool this weekend! We were beyond excited to sit outside and enjoy a chilly ocean breeze.  We actually caught a sunset this month.  Even though a few trips to the beach and to Ringling (the rose photo) were for photo shoots, it's still such lovely scenery to enjoy while working. Lastly, Hunter and I celebrated three years on Halloween.  Life is good.  I'm getting so stoked for the holidays, even though this will be my last chill week and weekend at home, I'm looking forward to all that these next two months have in store.  

Happy November (& Monday!) my friends… xox 

HELLO OCTOBER : INSPIRATION

sources: bed / living / coffee / entertain / candles / leaves / bones / kitchen 

Welcoming October with open arms, it's definitely my favorite month.  The weather cools down and the hustle of the holidays is near.  It it a good transition month and promises of much excitement ahead! I love fall color palettes and entertaining, it's a time to get a little more rustic and dark.  The first photo of the bedroom is my main inspiration for this season, I'm obsessed with that rusty color.  You should probably click the link and view that entire home tour (via because I'm addicted).  It's just beyond.  

Happy October!  I think I will finally allow myself to partake in pumpkin spice today!
