MotherWoman teamed up with The Nields and Sarah Prall Photography to create this beautiful tribute to mothers everywhere. I listened to it yesterday many times. Sometimes, I just closed my eyes and listened to the wise lyrics and Nerissa and Katryna’s sweet-sounding voices. And, other times, I payed attention to the messages and beautiful mothers…

new treasures in my shop
Lately, I’ve been finding lots of colorful, sturdy, useful treasures during my trips to the local thrift shops and garage sales, and so I decided to make a little Treasures section in my shop. I like seeing them all scrubbed and shiny in a little curated collection. Just this past weekend, I stumbled upon…
right now
I’m about to get my groove on at Mouse’s movement class. Loving the warm sunshine on my cheeks as we walked Chick to school. Thinking about some new art I’ve been slowly working on. Taking photographs of a few vintage goodies I plan to list in my shop. Sifting through a tin of new old…
Big news
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been hinting about a super exciting project that I’ve been working on, and it is finally time for me to share. It is a project that resonates with every bit of my creative self, and it is so dreamy that, sometimes, it just comes out as a whisper. A…
more spring
It rained for most of the weekend, but the sun came out at the end of Sunday, and I found even more spring busting out around our home. Sorry if you guys super sick of me documenting spring in my backyard. I can’t help it. But, first spring inside the house. We had an early…
outside
Tom and the kids spent almost every hour of this past weekend outdoors. I was inside working on my big secret project, which I’m super excited to share with you early next week. Promise. Tom raked and plucked and raked some more. He removed some vines that were choking some of our front bushes, and…
stitch-a-bird
This spring I’ve been spending time drawing with my non-dominant hand. This technique has produced lots of wobbly leaves, spindly stems, and skinny crooked houses. As it turns out, this sort of thing is perfect material for storytelling. The kids and I have been using our drawings to tell imaginative outside tales. The other day,…
twilight
These were taken earlier this evening when the rain had ended. Grays layered with grays. And, little pops of color. I kind of like damp, low lit, steady rain days even though my thick, curly hair never seems to be fully dry. I also…
Beginnings
The beginning of a little egg project I will feature later in the week. I have some super exciting Red Bird Crafts news to share. In the late summer and early fall, I’ll be offering creative writing and crafting workshops for adults and kids in my home studio. I am so incredibly excited about this…
left hand leaves
So, anyway, about left handed drawing (or drawing with your non-dominant hand). I find the process magical and super satisfying because it allows me to draw with intention, and it frees my mind enough so that I am drawing what I see rather than what I think I should be seeing. It ends up…
lefty.
I sat on the front steps of our house for 30 minutes, and with a Sharpie and kraft cardstock on a clipboard in hand, I drew left handed pictures of three spring things. I plan on adding color tonight, and then, hopefully, posting results tomorrow. These are the three real life spring things. I’ll also…
gettin’ crafty
Kel is wonderful. She is one of my oldest, dearest friends, and the above box of garden yarn is hers. She loves bread and perogies and sheep, and she remembers all of the random stuff – like how ten years ago, when we went to a Greg Brown concert, the guys at the table next…

Grass. And, green Pachysandra. And, the blue sky. It amazes me that during the first snow melt, there are plants that emerge vibrant and bouncy. It makes me forget about the flood in my basement (almost). xo e
