For the past month or two I’ve been hunting all over new york city for the right glass cookie jars to make studio terrariums. I couldn’t find the right type, but finally stopped by West Elm in dumbo the other day and scored these two great glass containers. Not cookie jars, but very [...]

Just a slight diversion in my spring printing season… I took a little vacation to visit a dear friend for the Easter holiday. What a great trip, I am feeling SO rested and recharged. The weather has been perfect in Los Angeles, just what I needed after these long winter months.
Now I’m [...]

It must be that time of year… I’ve been printing green almost all week. Here are two wedding invitation sets I finished yesterday, a mixture of chartreuse, forrest green on cream and green papers. The recognizable berry design is one of mine, the beautiful hydrangea set is the work of the bride herself, [...]

I’m getting more and more requests lately for orchid invitations. Timing couldn’t be better because I’m starting to crave the warmer, brighter weather of spring - and staring at tropical flowers always helps.
Today is very nice though. The sun is popping in and out and the breeze down here by the water is [...]

I printed two sets of invitations this week with similar clover styles. The sage clovers were printed on offwhite stock, and the blue on a slightly less creamy pearl white stock. I sent off plates for 3 weddings yesterday so the next 2 weeks will be busy. Hope you’ll check back!

I haven’t been posting much lately because I’ve been working on a lot of wedding invitation design work this month. (And I don’t think pictures of me sitting at my computer in different outfits would be very interesting.) I did print two weddings this week which I’ll post next, but had to [...]

As usual, January has been largely about meeting with clients and designing upcoming jobs. February will start with a bang as I have a few corporate identity projects in the final planning stages now.
But I did a bunch of printing this weekend, and it was one of those lucky occasions when I used the [...]

Sure, living in New York City can be hectic - but there are some unbeatable advantages. Back in November I went to a taping of the Martha Stewart Show (no kidding, my third time). This was an especially lucky taping because everyone in the audience went home with amaryllis bulbs!
We were carefully instructed on [...]

I’m printing programs, menus and table cards for two weddings this week. They both have neutral autumn colors (my favorite), but it’s 85 degrees here in nyc today. I hope we’ll get some fall weather, and not go straight to deep freeze…

Whew, just back today after a much needed getaway. I had a chance to escape to europe for 8 days, with a nice mix of city and country in france and england. I’m truly inspired, what a fantastic experience. I’ll be back on track this coming week with photography and starting the [...]
