Guess what? Hescher and Night Drive played at the Nightingale Room in downtown Houston last week. Guess who played drums for Hescher? Chris! It was Chris. He’s super badass at the drums. That’s him spinning his sticks. Chris loves this battery. It will charge his phone forever and possibly jump his car? Table conversation. They say the sound system is… View Post
I don’t know about you, but I had a super stressful and crazy hectic week! A few friends mentioned the same thing. Weeks like this really emphasize the importance of yoga practice to me. I can deal. If I don’t keep up with my meditation practice, I can’t deal at all. Lotus pose is meant for a meditation. Ha. Usually… View Post
Hand embroidery brings a unique touch to any piece of clothing. Embroidered accents embellish so many apparel and home pieces lately, but my personal favorites are the amazing detailed ones made by creatives and fiber artists. It’s actually really easy to get started with a little hand embroidery yourself, although it does take time to master. I made this cute… View Post
Wellness can cover so many different aspects of your life. When I set out to make this wellness podcast list, I first had to define what I meant by wellness. For me, it’s all about balance and positivity. Healthy living includes fitness, eating well, and caring for your head space, but it also includes finding a good work-life balance and… View Post
Last weekend the beach was so crowded with Spring Breakers! It was cool to see so many people having such a good time out there, even if the shoreline did get really full. We had to drive foreeeeever to find a space we fit in, but luckily Chris has his cute little white-top FJ to 4×4 us wherever we need… View Post
Does anyone else find themselves drawn to rust tones this Spring? I recently saw this shibori dress in rust instead of navy, and the warm colors drew me right in. It’s funny because I’ve been doing all this research over the past few years about hand dye and natural dye techniques, and for the past two years the traditional navy… View Post
Ready for a little spring cleaning? While you’re sprucing up your space to make room for a bit of fresh air, add a cute DIY macrame hanging planter in a window corner this year! Fancy knots, clean white edges, and fresh succulents are a welcome sight in the spring sunlight. I love the way this looks in our breakfast nook… View Post
Joe Walsh, apparently. I spent too much time this weekend working on this drawing of a song I heard. It was probably worth it. When I was about 3/4 of the way through, I indignantly said to Chris “where did all of my ink go” since the pen was almost empty. He looked at the paper and replied, “Cynthia, it’s… View Post
Now that 2017 is well underway, I wanted to loop back around on my organization situation to review where the cards – or rather notebooks – have fallen. What am I actually carrying around in my bag? Which notebooks do I write in every day? Do I have too many notebooks? Sure, some may say that. But I love them… View Post
Bath bombs. One of life’s little luxuries. What better way is there to round off a Monday than with a nice bath? Make it fancy with a bath bomb. These diy bath bombs are super easy to make and even easier to enjoy. It’s awesome to have these on hand, but it’s even better to give them as gifts. This… View Post
