  • If a Monogram Can Mark it, A Silhouette Can Top it!

    Ever since I ventured into this art form of hand cutting silhouettes, I can’t help but think of new places to put them. Obviously, the most common place for a silhouette is framed.

    A New Comfort Zone: Our Family “Paint Café”

    Over quarantine, we all adjusted to a new normal. It definitely pushed us out of our comfort zone in many ways. But the kids and I ended up creating a new comfort zone that we are still enjoying even after quarantine. We converted our great room into a “paint cafe.” I placed two easels in…

  • Paper or Pixel?

    PreviousNext Meet Cate (above)! Mom describes Cate as her “easy-going” girl. See her on the beach? How cute! Look at her profile photo… if one were to digitally trace the shape, it would look like the “Pixel” version. But take another look at her.

  • Look Mom, no apps!

    Silhouette art is a great southern tradition. Growing up in South Carolina, I was used to seeing them displayed on the walls in black oval frames in people’s homes. When I had a silhouette studio in Greenville, SC for 5 years, I learned so much about people’s perception of this art. The majority of people…

  • Working from Home

    I guess a lot of people are working from home for the time being. If you have kids, I should just tell you to remember one phrase: 15 minute increments. This is what I began telling myself as soon as I had my first baby and I pretty much still use it while kids are…
