I meant to post this little gem yesterday. If any of you are wanting to start or dabble in your own #mixedmediamonday with your kids (or on your own!) then I highly recommend this book to you. Beautiful Oops shows, in a wonderfully mixed media way, how we can turn "mistakes" into something beautiful. This is a great tool to help kids train their thinking to be more abstract and their solutions to be outside the box. It helps them see that we can--and should--let go of perfection and instead enjoy the process of creating art and design, and that pushing through any hard part is the way that we get to the best solutions and expression.

Yours truly is on @dixie_design today! Head over there to see some of mine and others' featured work! @dixie_design with @repostapp. ・・・ Our next designer, Sarah Robins Powell, often draws influence from history and literature, as well as inspiration from the vintage children’s picture books that were read to her as a child. Sarah Robins' work has appeared in Martha Stewart Weddings, Birmingham Magazine, Style Me Pretty, and Snippet & Ink. She now lives in Huntsville, Alabama, with her husband, Luke, and their three little girls. We can't wait to show you more of her incredible work! Check out her work at @sarah_robins_powell!

Lots of flowers for a wildflower party and LOTS of confetti! I found these snapdragons that look like rainbows, and I think they're just so beautiful.

Happy birthday, Helen! When you were born a year ago, we didn't know we'd be getting the most delightful baby in the whole wide world. But we did! Your easy-going and pleasant nature is so endearing. I can truly say I have enjoyed every moment I've had with you. We are so thankful for the little light that you are, and we love you with our whole hearts. #hellohelen

Behold the Celtic warrior bride. She is fearless and brave, with a compassionate, nurturing heart. She marches to the beat of her own Irish drum. She brings color, laughter, and life wherever she goes, and we love her. Oh, how we love her! Happy birthday, dear Farris.

I'm so excited to finally be able to share a project that's been months in the works! I'm honored to be part of a small group of designers for Dixie Design Collective, launching in October! Dixie is unique in that it is centered on work that is crafted by hand. The holidays are right around the corner! If you're looking for cards with nuanced watercolors, sprawling calligraphy, or cheerful gouache illustrations, then you've gotta check out Dixie. Website coming soon--in the meantime follow Dixie at @dixie_design !

First birthday pedicures! 20 sparkly fingers, 20 sparkly toes, and one call to poison control later, we made it out! It just wouldn't have felt right if Farris hadn't tried to eat a disinfecting "spa bath" tablet.

It's party month around here! Luke and all three girls have birthdays in the next 3.5 weeks. Yes, you read that correctly. So we have been doing breakfast up right with sprinkle waffles.
