Thank you Minneapolis.


This is my table half I had at the fair. It is full of fun things. What bums me out the most is when people walk by, look from 3+ feet away and then keep walking. I try to go up and down the rows looking at everything unless it is super crowded or the people are engaged in something and not welcoming. But come on folks, be a looky-loo! Come in, touch things, open books, smell the eye pillows, lets talk about the weather and the cute dogs roaming around.

Thank you everyone who came out in Sunday for the craft fair. Our tent was nice and fun and full. I had a wonderful time. It is kind of awesome to be stuck in a ten by ten foot area with some friends you don't see nearly enough for about 8 hours. It is also really great to see all these other awesome handmade things that other people make, AND for the most part folks are really friendly and you can craft nerd out and talk shop.

I will be there with my zines/little books, glow tooth charms, flax mint eye pillows, little pouches, and a small limited selection of hair bows, kids play food tea bags, can cozies, and some other things that are cute. I am sharing the ten by ten tent with My friends. Michaela will have beautiful handbound blank books.

Hello Friends!




Fixing, Making, Recreating. Documentation/instruction from some of the mending I do, things I make, and 'up-cycling' projects.

Doodle Club! Every week I get together with some rad ladies I know and drink coffee and eat snacks (or dinner), show and tell books we like, and draw together. We just finished our first mini zine!

See What I Saw. This is a collection of pictures of things I see that I think look like something else. Then my drawing of what I saw.
If you see something that you think looks like something else, please send me your picture, I will draw what I see, then you send me your drawing of what you saw and I will post it!
