taken from my sister nancy's bookshelf...looks like a great book! .... here's the other (live) version:

 fun w britt castellano and genesis duncan
this week-end, i took a roadtrip from l.a. to roseville (near sacramento)

 a 7 hour drive solo, pedal to the metal and made it just in time for west elm roseville's local launch party

packed my bag and forgot a comb (but hey,did you know meh hair is cool?!)
sooo proud to have been chosen by this beautiful store to carry three handmade mobiles: succulents, arrows and twig

also got to hang out with the brilliant and adorable sacto local artist ryan morris

ryan designs these awesome cards

and  genesis of graphicanthology makes these sweet cards and prints + she's wow! pretty and nice too.

i really wanted to take home a few strands of beaded tassels to hang above my bed at home ..but i already have the ceiling filled with twig mobiles (dilemma :)
if you're anywhere near sacramento, be sure to stop in nearby roseville and visit west elm, it's well worth the drive and say hello to jenny jun (lead home stylist)!!!
