soft structure
Brooklyn-based Erin Considine's stunning work with metal & hand-dyed fiber combines such gorgeous textures & colors. Drawing inspiration from nature, her woven, plaited, knotted & twisted architectural designs are wearable pieces of art. Made with ethically sourced metal, cotton & silk, & dyed with natural materials like madder root, turmeric, logwood & onion skin, her pieces are as thoughtfully sourced as they are constructed.

recollected
I recently started assembling some collected bits & baubles in an old shadowbox my father made for me when I was but a wee lass. A tiny revolving personal museum of sorts.
What do you do with the many small objects that you amass throughout your life?

happy weekend
Getting out of town for a much-needed break, & to celebrate 12 years since I told my best friend "I do" (insert gratefulness here): indulgence in comfort food, libations & art will ensue.
Allow yourself a little indulgence, as well!

rough & lustre
The white walls & floors, the tiles & the weathered front door, the beamed & swooping ceilings, the old & the new, the rough & the lustrous, the streamlined & the curvy, & the bursts of saturated colors: smitten.
