On Being Thankful + Giveaway

and the end of another year,
I can't help but feel thankful and privileged,

in pages filled with lines and colour.
Gathered stories and moments,
and unraveled new beginnings.

I feel fortunate for the new things I have learnt.

I've made you some ornaments, a little notebook, a soft fragrant pillow and an original christmas illustration

SHOP News + A Little Note On Notebooks


A few weeks ago my studio,
was stacked high with piles of paper,
the kind that comes with speckles.
That kind that has in it woven words
of things now gone,
of previous stories and previous lines.

Hand counted into petite piles,
meticulously measured, folded, 
and stitched into dainty notebooks
illustrated one by one, 
each one, one of a kind.





I like that they are made like no other,
that they have a story of their own, 
and that these pages,
might someday be woven,
with your words and lines.

The Notebook Project | Hand illustrated + GIVEAWAY

Lately, I've had this obsession,
with where it is I come from.
Where it is things come from.

The brushes in my hand,
the paint in these tubes,
the paper that lies beneath tips of pencils.
The notebooks I love oh so much!! 

So today, I've folded a small pile of paper in half.
Backed it all with a heavier card,
and stitched a line down the middle.
LIKE SO

NOTEBOOKS DONE!! As simples as that...

And the satisfying part of it all:

A very limited edition of TWO 
Hand Illustrated just for you!

To be GIVEN AWAY!!



You can have these TWO.
And because there are twins,
I'd like to keep them together.
If you'd like to treasure them as much as I DO!
