This blog turns 10 this August, and as I approach this milestone, I’ve been reflecting on the many seasons I’ve shared here — navigating life moves, creativity slumps and how to advocate for a more feminine approach to the ‘system’ of business.

Something I’ve noticed in the lead up to holidays, is that there is a strong emphasis on a slower, more intentional approach to the holidays this year. Whether it’s making a homemade simple syrup to gift your sister or making paper ornaments with your kids, it feels as if, collectively, we are feeling a shift– saying no to the usual rush, the commercialism, and instead yearning for something deeper and more peaceful.

This month I’m drawn to simple homecooked meals, making art from what we have. I've also been thinking a lot about the cycle of life and death, specifically concerning my work and this blog.

We got married! A full recap of the day coming soon, but first a little DIY. I knew I wanted to preserve my bouquet, and thought about drying it, but to me, drying flowers can sometimes feel stagnant. Instead I wanted something that felt poetic. Something that felt like the day, a moment in time, imprinted in my mind forever and ever.
