When I am out and about, doing errands, driving from one place to the next, I will catch a glimpse of something out of the corner of my eye. Often it is a surprising splash of color: in the back alley, on the trash heap, just around a corner. I’ve been known to stop in [...]

Recently, we had the amazing opportunity to be photographed by Francesca Balauger. This past month, Francesca has been an artist-in-residence at Hands on 3rd, a wonderful craft studio here in Los Angeles that offers workshops and creative space. Her project, titled “Creativity is Contagious: Portraits of Handmade Success” set out to capture inspiring individuals who [...] July 9th, 2010
Happy Friday! Hope you have something fun planned for this summer weekend. Stay cool, have some ice cream and definitely fit in a nice afternoon nap! -Susie and Heidi July 2nd, 2010
Happy Friday! It’s the official start of the long Fourth of July Weekend. The phones here at the studio have been deathly quiet today, so we’re guessing that a lot of people have already hit the road for the weekend (figuratively & literally). We have a busy weekend planned, but really wish that we had nowhere [...] June 25th, 2010
Happy Friday! Hopefully you have some fun planned this weekend. Being that it is the first weekend of Summer, it definitely deserves some extra attention, don’t you think? Hanging out outside is definitely on our to-do list. We’re really looking forward to hanging outside by the water at Patchwork Long Beach on Sunday! Earlier today, we posted [...] June 18th, 2010
Happy Friday! We’ve been celebrating summer parties here for the last couple of weeks with real life party peeks and ideas for entertaining. It’s been so much fun and thank you for all the wonderful feedback! We’ve gotten quite a few requests from you for recipes of the desserts that were featured in the Cake vs. [...] June 11th, 2010
Happy Friday! Our mouse model today looks like he’s saying “Hip-Hip-Hooray!”. We are leaving the studio a bit early today to have our last “after school adventure day” with our siblings. There are 6 of us and the youngest is graduating high school this year. For 18 years, we’ve picked one (or two or three) of [...] June 4th, 2010
Happy Friday! With Memorial Day on Monday, this shorten week sure flew by fast! We’re starting off the weekend with a piano recital by our littlest sister, NoNo, this evening. She’s the baby of our family, and we always think of her as 10 years old, but she is graduating high school in just a few [...] May 28th, 2010
Hello and Happy Friday! Isn’t this well-loved little guy adorable? We love how his ears aren’t quite a matched pair, but whose are anyway? Today is the start of the long Memorial Day weekend and by the looks of the traffic on the freeways at lunchtime, the holiday is starting early! While summer is still a month [...] May 21st, 2010
Happy Friday! So glad the weekend is here! Gorgeous weather makes it so hard to stay indoors. We’ve got the thrifting bug, so maybe tomorrow morning, instead of our usual hike, we’ll get on our bikes and go garage sale hopping. The thrill of finding a treasure is so much fun! Let’s hope we get lucky! [...] |
