This is going to come as a shock, but I LOVE photo grids! I went around and around on a 2012 card design and finally decided to just throw 20 photos of us at the problem instead of searching for ONE photo to compete with the magic that was last year. That's 18 photos of…

I about fell out of my chair when I saw Liz Kartchner's poster calendar a few weeks ago. THIS was surely the calendar I needed for 2013 (in addition to my Stendig, vegetable garden & moleskin color a month planners). It's a download from Paislee Press and all you have to do is drop in…

This November, I am playing along with the hastag #thirtydaysofthanksgiving on Instagram. It's super easy: every day for 30 days you post a photo of something you're thankful for. My Instagram stream is more or less a gratitude list anyway, but it's been fun so far to make a conscious effort to take a picture…

Have I mentioned that I had a patio garden this summer? Ah, yes, I have. It's no secret I was totally obsessed. (Though I've currently lost interest and that patio needs a serious intervention this weekend.) It was a huge joy to plant, fuss over, trim, harvest, water, take photos of and eat our garden…

To wrap up this week, I wanted to talk a bit about framing (family) photos and hanging them on the walls. A few years ago, I was all about plastering the house with photos of the two of us. I've pulled up a little bit since then and have worked to incorporate a lot more…

I am currently working on a project that has me thinking about patterns all day long. I am always on the hunt for new ways to pair shapes and to help stay inspired, I have been using my phone camera to take pattern photos. I tag them on instagram with the hashtag #patternaday. I don't…

I am going to be bringing a few new features to the blog this summer – two that are photo based. Weekly, I'll be sharing the "around here" shots, which are photos that I take mostly in my workspace throughout the week. Then every so often, I'll be sharing posts titled "photo walk : ______."…

The beginning of March, while Paul and I were traveling, I started taking photos of our drinks while we were out and Instagramming them with the title "his & hers." (Or "hers & his" when my drink was on the left.) The habit stuck and now I have collected quite a fun series. ps :…

I tend to take way more photos around my house than when I am out and about. I think it's because at my place, I'm in control of the situation and don't feel silly shooting the same thing multiple times. At home, no one (except Paul) stares at me like I'm a crazy person. I…
