  • “Heartbeat Brooklyn”: 11 Years Old!

    Happy 2015! This year marks 11 years since my two murals went up on 12th Street and 2nd Avenue in Brooklyn. Up until now, I hadn’t taken my kids to go see them because it wouldn’t really have meant all that much to them, but now that they’re nearly 4 and 6.5 years old, I…

  • 2014 Halloween Review

    Halloween is over and thanks to things like elections, aggressive holiday merchandising and why-the-hell-is-it-so-cold-already weather, this post seems impossibly passé. But because every now and then I love being exuberantly belligerent, I shall charge on, write and post this bad boy because, it was ONLY ONE FLAMING WEEK AGO. So, for those of you remotely…

  • Spoonflower Headquarters: An SK Tour

    I’ve only been obsessively designing and uploading my surface designs to Spoonflower for, oh you know, the better part of the last six years.  So when the opportunity arose last week to actually get my physical self to their North Carolina headquarters, I did just that. But wait. Before you think this post is going…

  • Happy Valentine’s Day!

    What did I do this morning, after waking up to my wonderful husband’s sweet gifts for the children and me?  Well, after drinking my morning coffee, I realized that I needed to get on with some sort of gifts for everyone because I completely waited until the last minute. Let me say that I really…

  • Remaking a Hat

    Yeah, so my morning began with being abruptly woken up by the shrill screams of betrayal and discontent. My blurry dry eyeballs adjusted to the trauma of sleep interruption and I walked like a zombie in an old-lady cardigan downstairs to find out what crime had been committed. Welcome to my morning. I arrived on…

  • WIP: Halloween Costume Beginnings

    This is what happens when you completely sidetrack from everything else you’re working on and decide you need to get a headstart on at least one of your kids’ Halloween costumes while simultaneously using up fabric scraps that you basically hate.  See, I’m that person that does not turn down a “Hey, I’ve got a…

  • DIY Subway Wall Art

    A year or so ago, after Spoonflower unveiled a custom decal printing option, I made up an entire alphabet based on the same look the NYC MTA subway system has. Why? Uh, hello, because my children love trains and love the subway, of course. Knowing we would eventually move, I stuck them up temporarily in…
