this week at knack....
There has been a lot of color swirling around the studio, and I hope to debut at least one of these beauties next week! Did I mention that I am super excited about this collection?! I have enjoyed coming up with the design concepts for each piece. It has been a while since I have designed a cohesive collection. It feels frabjous!

All of you will be happy to know that Mollie has graciously done a tutorial over on Design Sponge with her paper taxidermy pieces. Mr Moose has garnered so much attention that he now has an antelope friend!
Enjoy!

These guys are in the etsy shop, and available for purchase!
I think they would be perfect for adding that collected interest aspect to your home!

I am painting away in the studio today, and have gorgeous color dripping off the end of my paint brushes this week! I can't wait to get these pieces up for you to see!
Have an awesome day today friends!

meet athalie and aurelia...
These two lovely ladies are pieces that I did for my sweet friend "L".
It is really quite remarkable that I found one here locally, and then while visiting my brother in NC I found the matching piece! How fortuitous is that?
I enjoyed layering the paper on these drawer fronts with paint and stain to achieve a very unfussy, patchwork effect. It is a favorite of mine, that I need to do more often!

oh, and p.s.
....the porch party was just what the doctor ordered!
After a week of publishers calling, magazines scheduling, and furniture mounting....it was a night of nurturing friendships, many laughs, and a blazing fire.
My hair smelled like the outdoors/ fire when I got home :) I wish I could bottle that smell somehow.
