Check out the darling shower my friend Brittany put on for Sydney's soon to be baby girl! She themed it vintage owl for us Chio girls (and the little future Chio). I did the banner and wish I made the newspaper puffs.... Sooo cute! Hoot Hoot!!!

Lovely Letterpress Video

This video has been circulating around on the blogosphere, and I can't help but share it. Isn't letterpress amazing?

Pretty Illustrations

Loving the illustrations and design work of Sara Wood. Wouldn't some of these styles translate into rad invitations?

So my mom and I have been frequenting the bead shop for the past couple of months, making cool jewelry. At home, Scott has a huge collection of feathers that he ties flies for fly fishing. Well, I had a pretty sweet idea (at least I think its sweet), to raid Scott's stash and combine them with my gems. Here's how they turned out.

If you like them enough to own a pair, you can buy them at our etsy shop!

I'm am going to take a minute to brag big time about Morgan's amazing wedding. I have never been to a wedding so DIY, personal & unique like hers before. She and her family pretty much made everything.

I went down with her family to the Salt Lake Hardware building the night before and decked the place out until 2 am. It was so fun to see it all come together! And it was so fun doing her invitation, which perfectly matched the entire wedding.

Here's some fun pics of what Carly Watts and I did for Morgan's "Love Song" Shower. It turned out pretty cute.

Here's a couple of fun DIY projects I've done at work with the Yudu & Cricut Machines. They are pretty fun. Check out the machines at www.cricut.com or at your local craft store.

The birds on wood & the flowers on the towel are my illustrations. The rest are from Cricut Cartridges.
