Weekend Feature :: Perfectly Petite Purl Soho Posy

Two short weeks ago, my mum and I went to NYC and of course we couldn’t miss Purl Soho. Beautifully curated and equally inspiring, as soon as we entered the doors our hands were twitching with the possibilities of all the new projects waiting to be brought to life… Purl Soho + Squam have a wonderful connection and each time I visit NYC I’m always sure to visit. We are so grateful for their continued support for our retreats and of our wonderful creative community, … View Post

Counting the weeks, we are *almost* exactly half way between the Spring and Fall retreats. If you attended the Spring gathering — how are you still basking in the Squam glitter … View Post

makers monday :: Tory Williams

I’m so excited to highlight Tory Williams on another Makers Monday post! I first met Tory during our Fall 2017 gathering — bright, bubbly, with a contagious smile and an abundance of wit, she’s effortless to be around. As the teacher of Portrait of the Artist, she asked Elizabeth and me if we wouldn’t mind being models for the afternoon session of her class. Admittedly, I was nervous having the cameras pointed directly at me, but Tory immediately put us at ease with light direction and … View Post
