snugglepot and cuddlepie

Unless you're Australian, you might have seen the title of this post and suspected my blog had been hacked :)

Nope, it's me! I'm still alive, and working on several new projects, one of which will include - that's right - Snugglepot and Cuddlepie....

They're characters from an Australian children's book series, and how adorable are they?!

My client is Australian, and is excited about passing on this childhood memory of hers to her little one, due this July. A few of these images will be our jumping-off point for the project, and I just love them!

The plan is to incorporate a couple framed prints. We'll likely stick with the more muted colors like below...gray, greens, light yellow. The nursery will be calm, soft, peaceful. 

I have three current projects which involve babies due in June and July! What a privilege to be invited into these precious times with some amazing families. I am blessed! This also explains why I've been MIA here on the blog...have been focusing like crazy on these projects. Will try to be better about sharing updates...in the meantime, enjoy the irresistibly cute Snugglepot and Cuddlepie :)

Like what you see? I'd love to work together and have availability this summer/fall.

Don't you love it when Ikea comes through? Ever since our Mexico trip last May, I've been on the lookout for frames to fit these beloved Otomi paintings...and found the perfect solution at Ikea last week, and for $10!! Love it!

I thought for sure I was going to need custom frames, and absolutely thought I would be paying more than $10!

Tip: in my wallet, I always carry measurements for various pieces of furniture/other items I'm on the lookout for. This way, when I'm out and about I know whether something will work. I have lists for our home and clients'.

The black backing was already in place, and was the PERFECT backdrop for the imperfect, slightly frayed edges of the paintings. I'm telling you - win/win/win!!

It's true that these are not the only pieces of Otomi art in our house (you might remember two others from our dining room, although they all move around quite a bit and those two are now in a hall nook!). We do have a growing collection, and am not sure it'll be stopping anytime soon. I might be willing to part with a few one day...but only to a very good home...I'll need to be convinced :)

Like what you see? I would love to work together and have availability for projects this spring!

These fancy pulls are a recent addition to our newly painted magnetic chalkboard cabinet. You like? 

I love 'em. Started with just the two but will definitely be ordering two more for the bottom doors. Then, I'll be sure to style up those cabinets for you and share away :)
