Learn a new craft with me ☕️

This time dipping my brush in coffee was not an accident 😅 After turning dandelions into a watercolor paint, I wanted to learn what else around me could be used to bring a little color into the world. So this month I’m diving into learning how to make natural dyes, pigments, and paints.

Week 4 Dandelion Month!

Well… I did it. Turned my little dandelion oil experiment into an actual skin balm 😅 And now I’m over here like… wait… do I make everything myself now?? Tried it on my dry cuticles (so SHINAAAYY) and immediately Moana soundtrack popped in my head. Simple ingredients, lots of learning,

Learn to make handmade paper with me!

Week 3! Turning my kids school papers into seed paper felt like a good idea.. Execution is still pending 🤓 Maybe don’t let the mushy pulp (idk the technical term) sit longer than a few days I’ve been loving repurposing paper and all the things you can do with it! Pop a 📜 in the com

Learning to make handmade paper - week 2!

Still experimenting… And still surprised at how much you can do with something as simple as old paper (or kid master pieces they don’t want you to throw away) Dried flowers, coffee grounds, colored pulp Testing all the things to see what works and what I probably shouldn’t do again Lea

Week 3 of candles!

This week was all about getting the basics right before chasing the fun stuff. After messing up my first test candle, I really wanted this one to go smoother (if you want to see that semi fail, it’s linked) Now that the base feels solid, I can move on to greener (and better smelling) pastures

I spent 7 1/2 years here..

That’s not nothing. This week looks normal on the outside. But internally, I know it’s the end of one chapter and the start of something I can’t fully see yet. It’s heavy. And hopeful. And a little terrifying. It’s a strange in-between. I don’t have a master plan, but I’m not

Learn a new craft with me!

Raise your hand if we think these will last longer than a week 😅 This is week 3 of learning embroidery where I’m learning a new craft every month. I figured I needed to apply what I’ve learned and grabbed some 🧦 for that experiment 🤓 Who knew markers like this existed for this purpose and now

Permission for you to show up messy

If only we could all see ourselves as we see others and dissect our jumbled thoughts 🤪 Just another random thing I’ve come to learn from posting online for the past 4+ years —— This is one of the reasons I have a small 👀 obsession with transitions…they tie my brain something creative to do
