I've been obsessing over all the fairy things and whimsy lately!

Check out this enchanted fairy tree house I made for the upcoming community fairy trail, organized by Friends of Glen Echo πŸ„

Making it took me straight back to my childhood β€” hours spent studying the tiny miniatures tucked into the little wooden cubby frames that hung on Grandma Mary Jane's kitchen wall. I was enthralled by just how many sets of small version things there could be. And oh how adorable they all were!

Those teeny tiny candle sticks are what got me with this one! And those cute little fairies reading their books tho! One things for sure, I'm ready to take a small hammock nap after doing all that fine detail work.Β 

My daughter took just as much delight as my inner child β€” spending hours playing with the pinecone fairies. She was especially smitten with the tiny baby one.

All this little-world magic has me wondering β€” is anyone interested in buying handmade fairy houses, furniture, or little accessories? Because I really need an excuse to make more of these. It was so much fun!

Most importantly β€” you can get an up-close view of my fairy treehouse along with many other fairy house designs in person!

Join me and other artists for the fairy house ravine walk next Thursday, October 1st from 6 – 8 PM.
Fairy houses will remain on display within Glen Echo Park from October 1st through the 15th.

New Roots
Hand-knotted macraweave on found wood

I had a lot of fun exploring knots, woven layers, roots and branches while making this piece!

Mother nature has nurtured me in the most tender and loving ways. I love exploring the relationship between the visual elements of nature and the concept of connection and belonging β€” like the way these roots reach out even after they've left the branch.

This is the beginning of a new series that will feature themes of growth, family, and connection through earthly visual elements and tones.

Follow along here for updates and more!

A major shift is happening in the studio!

As an adult adoptee raised in Ohio, recent discoveries have led me back to my roots in Southern Louisiana. I learned that my Acadian ancestors were master textile creators, passing down maternal bonds through hand-spun heirloom brown cotton.

Uncovering these roots shows that my deep love for the tactile rhythm of fiber art makes perfect sense β€” it's in my blood!

While plant hangers, necklaces, and workshops will still be available for order, I am embarking on a new creative journey of ancestral reclamation.

I’ll be documenting the process of learning the techniques of carding, spinning, and weaving, as well as regaining and connecting with the parts of me that were lost to adoption.

I hope to uncover, inspire, and educate as you follow along with this journey. 🌿
