Almost finished with this adorable ramen restaurant book nook with the help of my PS1. Now to add noodles and a couple other little touches to make it feel lived in.

Learning through failure is essential to learning. Try, do, review, repeat. I wanted to make a harvest basket for myself and the kids so we can wash them outside with the hose before they come in. I played around with a few different designs and am still figuring out what will work best - but for now, they are functional and the cedar is naturally water resistant.

I did not have this on my 2025 bingo card. Wow. It’s live. It’s selling. And the description and bio are so well done ❤️

150 mini plant treehouses are on their way too… . It all started with an email from a buyer, which I honestly thought was a scam, and after the marketing team saw my treehouse the purchase order was sent and I got to work! I had to fight my imposter syndrome so hard today when I put these boxes on the post office counter - I’m excited and nervous and honestly proud that my work is now in transit to see where this little glimmer takes me 🤗❤️‍🔥✌🏼

Thanks to the 622 Education Foundation for their generous grant and the opportunity to build and add little eight free libraries to eight 622 schools. Every time I get to make these libraries I am filled with joy in knowing that more spaces, no matter how small, are existing in communities to give endless hours of imagination, creativity, and exploration through stories. Andrea Gibson said it best when they said, “I am living today as someone I had not yet become yesterday, and tonight I will borrow only pieces of who I am today to carry with me tomorrow” here’s to knowing 8 more schools get the chance to borrow more stories to build new versions of our fellow humans we haven’t had the pleasure of knowing yet, and knowing they will change the world just by existing ❤️
