It's kind of a big deal.


New website is live! It's kind of a big deal. Now you can easily navigate my site to find art and blog posts combined! Soon to arrive: shop! Sadly, this oh so lovely blog will no longer be updated. It has a rather large place in my heart... So if you regularly frequent - just turn your web dial to applegang.com and continue to find arts and crafts galore. 

Thank you blogger - for validating my want to express all creative and inspirational outlets.

HOW TO: make a mojito to remember



Easy steps for making the perfect summer beverage:
Muddle
2-4 slices of lime
5-10 leaves of spearmint
(I like lots of flavor - so I use the max of both)
Simple syrup (to taste)
Add ice
Pour 2 oz white rum
Mix, stir, shake (whatever you prefer)
Top with champagne or soda water (champagne is a lovely addition & treat)



Presto! Amazing summer beverly to be enjoyed with friends over sunsets/ tea parties or solo over chick flicks/ poolside.

Everyday Repeat Patterns

I happen to deeply enjoy repeat patterns. Especially when they pop-up in my day to day routine of wake-work-errands-sleep.

Free chairs = makeover

I found these chairs on the side of the road last summer. I've been waiting all year to sand them, reupholster and spray paint! I started the process this past weekend but am headed off on a wonderful road trip adventure. Once I return it'll be time to spray paint! Semi-gloss white with lightly hand-sanded/worn edges. Swoon... Before & after shots to come.

New! From Letterpress, with Love.



A new logo. A new business card. Letterpress is swoon-worthy. Fingers crossed that open studio extends through summer. I have big ideas.
