Visit to NH

Went back to New Hampshire for the weekend for some very postponed graduation celebration with my grandmother. Sunday morning was spent at the Londonderry Flea which is basically AMAZING. I spent my morning sipping homemade lemonade and wandering around seeing what treasures I could find.

NH Flea Market
Pretty exciting, it will get better

Yummmo
I didn't know that cotton candy came in so many flavors, or colors

Magic Wands are serious business
Magic wands are serious business. I snapped this photo and the guy who was selling them got really upset and yelled at me.

Carnival Car
You never know what you are going to find at the Londonderry Flea like this rusty old carnival ride car

Olafur Eliasson at the Moma

Today I went to the Moma with Mino to catch the Olafur Eliasson exhibit. I would recommend that if you haven't seen it to go tomorrow because it is the last day it will be opened!

Wish I had brought my better camera because the color that the light gave off was magnificent and this photo doesn't do it justice

Renegade

renegade

A big thanks to everyone who came to Renegade this weekend and stopped by my booth! Even with the torrential rain I made decent sales and had a great time! For those of you who were not able to make it to the fair don't worry because I will be selling my pillows off of my website within the next few weeks.

The past two weeks have been hectic. I started a new job freelancing as an assistant print and pattern designer at Macy's in housewares and have been thinking a lot about what to do with my own personal projects. I feel like I am in a good place right now and I am quite happy with everything at the moment. I have compiled a list of things (surprise , surprise!) that I am hoping to accomplish this summer.

- Start selling my pillows off of my website
-Building up personal pattern portfolio, (transferring sketchbook patterns to illustrator and colorways)
- Starting a new post college sketchbook with only sketching, NO lists (lists are my weakness and I find myself scribbling them at least a few times a day)
- take more photos of inspiring things that I see everyday now that I have a point and shoot camera that fits in my purse thanks to my dad for graduation
- read one book a week

I have been spending my days working on Renegade products, searching for a job (any offers?) rearranging all of the furniture in my room, and teaching dance and gymnastics. I finally have a new roommate (thank GOD!) Nicole, who is still settling in, whose blog can be found here btw. I guess that things have been kind of slow?

I am really excited about Renegade, all of my pillows are finished and I have a few more last minute things up my sleeve. If you didn't already know you can find me on June 14th and 15th at booth #62 at
McCarren Park Pool on Lorimer St. between Bayard St. + Driggs Ave. Put it on your calendars people!

I've been feeling really sick but today decided to actually leave my apartment and wear something other than yoga pants and a t-shirt, so a wardrobe remix shot was bound to happen.

Back from the Bahamas! I actually got back a week ago, but the last week has been a blur with prepping for renegade. I have new products to show and sell and all of my paperwork for officially running my business is done! Here are some photos I took on my trip.
