Settling In

I miss the spring and summer color. I love fall foliage and blooms, but today I miss the bright, warm colors. I know Spring will come sooner then we think, but first is winter. 

I have started to settle things in the studio after our biggest wedding season yet, thanks to all of you. Your support is always cherished and I am so grateful for the love. 

Now upwards and onwards to the holiday season. I am really looking forward to Thanksgiving. Heading to Kansas City to my aunt and uncles farm. Horses, Chickens, Goats, cats, dogs and fields. Lot's of fields. I can't wait to walk through them and reflect on how thankful I am for this past year, for you and for my friends and family who carry me through each day. 

Oakmoss, Fig and Lavender Oh My

Who doesn't love a good candle. When I am at home on a dark fall or winter night I love to light tons of candles and create a warm and cozy space. Well, now we have some of my favorite candles in our Apothecary + Supply.

Im not sure how I found Sarah, but I am glad I did.  Her biz name is Simply Curated and her candles are amazing. Hand-crafted and made of domestically grown soy wax and wood wicks, the candles are eco -friendly in every sense of the word! The glass that holds the candles are domestically sourced and are original pieces of barware that makes each candle unique. After you burn the candle you can use the glass as a classy drinking vessel.

Sarah makes these candles in small batches and while the process takes time, it results in a candle of the highest quality with natural fragrance that permeates the entire candle from top to bottom.

Also, I am in love with the fact that she uses wood wicks. I honestly don't know if I have ever burned a candle with a wood wick, but they are great. Because they are wider they give off more warmth and light then a normal candle. And they crackle, which is a treat for a person like me who doesn't have a fireplace.

We have 3 seasonal scents available. Each one is amazing and will bring you through fall and winter like a champ. Or if you are really thoughtful and really love someone, they make great gifts!

Oakmoss + Leather
Vanilla + Lavender

this week is...

I am finally sitting at my desk for the first time this week and it feels so good and kind of relaxing. Running on little sleep and energy, but super happy about all that is up this week. Just wrapped a shoot with the amazing Barkers . I love styling for them. They are so filled with fire and excitement, it's refreshing and inspiring.

Tomorrow I am super excited to be apart of my friend Heather Crosby's book release party for her book Yum Universe. I met Heather this summer at Art Camp and immediately connected with her and her way of eating and healthy living. A few months back she approached us about doing some florals for her book release and I happily said of course. 

If you would like to join us along with:

Owen + Alchemy

Rhine Hall Distillery 

Caroline Liu

we will be at Chicago Art Department from 6-9pm tomorrow to celebrate this amazing book filled with incredible information and recipes. 

P.S. Stay tuned for us gradually adding some new products to the online shop. They are coming from some of our favorite people and will be great for easy and thoughtful holiday gifts. We will be bringing one new product to you next week and maybe we will even give away a little Foxglove gift collection to one of you, so keep your eyes peeled.  Speaking of products, the brisk weather has started, so check out the Nourishing Facial Serum in our apothecary.  It will keep those rosy cheeks happy all winter long.
