“Live in the layers, not on the litter.” Recently, I stumbled upon this random line from a poem by Stanley Kunitz. The words immediately resonated with my introverted soul, as I’ve always loved rich layers and texture in both my art and in life. While the surface might catch my attention, the stories that live within all those layers are what really light me up on the inside. “How did that artist create that texture?” “What medium could I add to make this painting more interesting?” “What life stories live beneath that person’s polished exterior?” In my own life, “What stories led me to where I am now and better yet, what might need to be composted into richer soil so that I can keep growing stronger?”

Vintage quilts & jewels + Hearts + Love notes = The perfect ingredients for making homemade Valentines! This sweet little batch of Valentine ornaments will arrive at One Rose (Hull Street location) THIS Friday!❤️

It all started with a vintage box lid, fun packing tape saved from a recent mailer, and a need to process some big feelings…A peek into my latest tiny sacred journal (and some thoughts to ponder on this rainy day)!
