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

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
Is it Spring yet? I’m so ready for the second half of March. The winter space between December and early spring is so full of waiting. For longer days, warmer air, less… sticks everywhere. We don’t get winter in Houston so much as everything turns to sticks. But that’s changing. It’s not dark when I leave the office anymore, which… View Post
Beautiful embroidery designs are everywhere on clothing right now, bringing fresh spring vibes and the promise of warmer days. My sister has an amazing embroidery machine, so we made this diy embroidered jean jacket the other day. This was such a fun sister craft! She’s quite the sewing wizard and has been making custom pieces for years. You can find… View Post
This grain-free rainbow bagel recipe situation is pretty much my favorite combination, since it comes with sweet dairy-free cream cheese topped with paleo rainbow bagels. Party on the top, party in the back, and party in the middle. And the dough is super fun to craft. Do you want to know what else is super awesome about this bagel recipe?… View Post
A nice schmear of rich cream cheese perfectly takes the edge off the dryness of a breaded breakfast pastry like a bagel. Does dairy give anyone else a little bit of an upset stomach? This dairy-free cream cheese recipe solves all of your worries. It’s made from full-fat coconut cream, so it does have a lot of fat in it (duh)… View Post
