Thanksgiving decoration

We had a special craft day and prepared all these wonderful decorations for our thanksgiving table.

Rag house hunting

Got to go downtown LA to an amazing rag house full of treasures. Do you know 10% of California landfills are full of textiles.

Fabric swatches

Last week I went to Micheal Levine's fabric store in downtown LA. I got some great fabrics to play with.

Patterns

Photos of some inspirational patterns, collected on my travels.

Terra Nova :: Artists Retreat

Creative weekend away in the mountains.

My Pink & Orange Baby Shower

My friends Morgan & Kathlene arranged the most beautiful baby shower for me on Sunday. It was so nice to celebrate baby no.2 in such style.

Screenprinting Day

We screeened a collection of nautical and botanical images onto recycled t-shirts for HomeSpun's Spring collection. Sienna even joined in the fun. They'll soon be for sale on our online store.

Cardboard Box Airplane

Sienna is getting so big these days and had to share these photos. She loved being creative and we had so much fun making this airplane out of a diaper box. I never expected her to play within for as long as she did.

Nautical Inspiration Board

One of HomeSpun's themes for Spring 2011 is nautical. Here is a quick snap of our inspiration board. We love the way vintage and nautical blend together and we are excited to add pops of orange and eggshell blue. Check out our online store for some of our new pieces.

Birthday Party fun!

My husband Aaron organized this fun photreasure hunt for my birthday. Everyone had to run around Westwood taking photos inspired by different clues of things I like!
For example "Thirty- One " my age, "Shades of Brown/HTML shade no. A0522D" Sienna my daughters names etc.
Here are just a few of the photos from the hunt.

Unique LA - Great success

HomeSpun Vintage and Corrie Hill Design shared a booth at December's Indie Art Show Unique LA. We were quite proud of our booth!
