Sea, Sand & Stars



I spoke to my mom early on Mother's Day. Her spirits were high as she and my dad were in a rush because they had a day ahead of celebrating her and the other mother's in my family. She was most excited to be going to the beach and I was happy that the day ahead was filled with family , sun and her favorite thing which was to watch my brother's dog go nuts in the sand and water! After talking to her I went to the studio reading a Constance Spry book. I felt inspired to make something with both her spirit and related to my Mother's Day. This is was my long distance gift to Mom with love. I hope she had a very happy day!

Promises Promises



Promises are meant to be broken but I couldn't help but keep mine. Here are the photos from an event earlier this week that I promised. Working with these materials is absolutely euphoric. I feel like the luckiest gal in the world this week to have my fridge filled with to the rim with everything light and splendid! Tomorrow I'll play a little more with what was left from this fashion launch. It will be my Sunday!

More being More


The studio is such a fragrant disaster today after the whirlwind of flying azalea branches and rose bushes that formed the architecture to showcase the peonies, ranunculus, parrot tulips, garden roses and 2000 other ingredients for these arrangements last night. A case of MORE being more in what I think a very good way- promise to post more from this event later. Too tired to organize today so I went to the park on this most perfect day and took me some pics (see post below) to share the beauty around and get everyone packing their picnic baskets for the weekend! If it weren't for Central Park this city would be regrettably undesirable. My body is sore, my hands swollen but tomorrow I'll be back in the studio, my treasure chest of perishable colors to play play play!

yes is a pleasant country...



yes is a pleasant country... (XXXVIII)
E. E. Cummings
yes is a pleasant country:
if's wintry
(my lovely)
let's open the year

both is the very weather
(not either)
my treasure,
when violets appear

love is a deeper season
than reason;
my sweet one
(and april's where we're)

Hot Magenta






I'm smitten with this little pedestal bowl I broke down and bought on Ebay. It's really no holds bar kitsch while being over the top fabulous all at once! Flowers: Peonies, Garden Roses, Hydrangea, Begonia, Lemon and Aspedestra leaves with Maidenhair Fern(not see in these shots).
