PIECES OF HOME

I had a shopping date with my bestie.  Best day Ive had in a long time.

Some days are just Red Headed Stranger days... If you love this album, you know what I mean.

A little lunch date with myself.

So, ummmm... we sold a shitload of these new Skyline Fever shirts during the pre-orders and could not be more grateful!

Violet Mae waiting to go on a car ride, her favorite part of the day.

James watching the final episode of Psych, almost in tears...

We got some much needed rain here and there this past week.

I found a few of my dad's old tshirts and cut them up so I can wear them.  We all got this shirt when my mom was going through cancer.

This sweet one was having dinner outside my studio window the other day...

Working like mad on all of my custom orders...

SOMETIMES LIFE IS A MESS, YO

Sometimes life is just messy.  These are not the kind of photos I think to take everyday, but we tend to glamorize the picture perfect side of life, and its good to keep some balance of reality in there.  And reality says, things are not always perfect, or clean, or together.  This is the state my studio is in more often than not.  As soon as I get it cleaned up and 'perfect' I get in there and create and make more messes.  Now its just a cycle for me.  I let it go for a few weeks until it gets to the point where I can't stand the clutter anymore and then do a marathon cleaning.  It would probably be much better if I would just take 5 minutes each day after working and pick up for myself, but the reality is, I'm normally feeling too tired, or work myself up to the last minute of needing to go cook dinner or run to the post office.  And then it just doesn't happen... and that is okay!  Thank goodness for doors you can shut! 

I tend to not let my messes in the rest of the house build up this bad, although Id like to think this is true.  When it comes to laundry and piles of papers on desks... I'm a procrastinator.  There is a huge pile of clothes that need to be hung up that have been sitting on my chair in my bedroom for over a week now. 

Ideally it would be clean all the time, b/c that is when I feel most peaceful, and creative.  But reality says sometimes it just can't all be done. 

In the midst of cleaning out my parents house, our garage became our storage for EVERYTHING.  This is a pic of it half way clean already.  Weve been working our extra evening hours in here each day trying to get this space super cleaned out and organized so we can screenprint shirts back here next week.  It feels monumentous and is stressing us out a bit, but its something we have been putting off for so long, that it has to be done right now b/c of all of these shirt orders.  At the same time its kind of exciting, b/c once and for all it will be a working garage!  It will be Skyline Fever's studio.  How rad! 

I thought Id share these photos for those of you out there who feel like you just cant keep it all together all the time, you are not alone!  There is ALWAYS this kind of reality behind every picture perfect photo, in everyones life. 

PIECES OF LIFE

A sultry portrait of my luscious Rain + a new Roots and Feathers necklace.

My new longhorn skull & some of my favorite boots from BCFootwear.

I tore down and rebuilt my tee pee in a new spot in my yard.  She is better than ever.

My first selfie with my tee pee, ha ha!

Bella being oh so helpful in the studio by lounging away in a basket...

We made some tilapia with basil pesto this week!  It was oh so yummy.

I was so proud of my friend Katelyn for landing the cover photo on this issue of Amulet magazine!  You will also spy some Roots & Feathers earrings on her pretty model.

What better way to start your day then with Joni Mitchell...

I had a date night with my boy and wore my pointy flats...

We printed a fresh batch of Skyline Fever moon phase crop tops.

PIECES OF LIFE

I am in love with soft turquoise and silver together right now...

Can't get enough of my Danmala goodies...

Still quite in love with our bedroom makeover and newly thrifted quilt...

Ive been needing a dry erase board forever, but dare I admit I would not get one b/c they were all white... until I found this beauty at Target. 

This girl has been loving the spring weather and car rides...

My sweet soul sister Robin sent me this darling watercolor recently...

Lately my business has been working on custom after custom... this little beauty is one of them...

Beautiful packaging from Gaia Conceptions... can't wait to share what is inside in outfit post!

I got to celebrate this sweet girls birthday at the bowling alley!  Fun times...

Another beautiful Texas Sky...
