622 press cards are now carried at Driftless Studio, which is owned and operated by Anne Connor. Anne is an amazing nature photographer, and the gallery exhibits much of her work as well as that of local and international artists. The shop carries everything from hand-woven rugs to unique jewelry to handmade crayons, and of course Anne’s photography graces coasters, mousepads, canvases and more.

She picked up my vintage owl notecard, plum and silver feathers note card and two colorways of my gone to seed note card. Driftless Studio is located at 2981 Cahill Main in Fitchburg, just behind The Great Dane on Fish Hatchery Rd.

Books and Brew, a delightful coffee shop in my hometown of Milton, WI, also decided to carry my cards full time. They picked up a few holiday designs last year, and the new owner Carla ordered a few of almost all of my notecard designs as well as one of each of the limited edition prints. She’s doing some really exciting things with the store including an expanded menu and earlier hours and giving the whole shop a facelift.

Books and Brew is located at 613 W. Madison Ave., in Milton’s recently restored Old Junction Mill, which is also home to The Red Rooster and Peddlar’s Loft. If you’re in the area you should definitely make a point to stop by!

Fruit Fly Pie

I harbor a small obsession with owls. Luckily, Fruit Fly Pie ceramics has just the fix for me! Wendy’s etsy shop is chock full of planters, vases, dishes and more modeled after this whimsical animal. They’re slip cast from vintage ceramic molds and finished  with non-toxic, lead free & food safe glazes. She also offers a variety of other vessels made from vintage designs — from cupcakes to turtles — including this adorable deer!

Miss Malaprop

Miss Malaprop, a.k.a. Mallory, hosts a blog of “indie finds for your uncommon life” and today she posted about me! Mallory is a writer living and working in New Orleans who is very much dedicated to supporting her regional community as well as the community of artists, artisans and crafters making beautiful goods by hand. I can’t thank her enough for her lovely words about my work!

Art Deco Invitations

I just finished up an invitation suite for Jen and Aaron’s summer wedding. They’re having an art deco theme throughout the event and wanted the invitations to really reflect that, so I used a really authentic typeface and carried a funky feather motif throughout all the pieces in the suite.

It was my first time printing metallic envelopes, and although they took forever to dry, everything turned out beautifully and I’m really happy with the invitations!
