Finally home from our Alaskan trip then we took off to Telluride to the bluegrass festival. Pics coming soon… Home sweet home. I’m just going through some Alaskan photos. What a beautiful & majestic place… ❤️

A few photos from our many excursions and experiences… an up close and personal experience seeing an iceberg calving, hiking to a remote lake, visiting an old cannery, kayaking the fjords, kayaking some tide pools, watching so many beautiful sunsets and sunrises.… I met so many great people along our journey.. feeling grateful! it’s always good to be home and get back to my creative processes. Until next time Alaska. ❤️

Sometimes words are not necessary… the beauty of Mother Nature speaks for herself. Glacier ice is very dense and so incredibly clear. If you put it in a cocktail it will crack almost immediately our guide once tried it. lol ❤️

My dye garden is growing! I started my seedlings a couple of months ago. THESE are chocolate cosmos! For those of you that know me… you know that chocolate is one of my favorite desserts! These chocolate Cosmos literally smell like chocolate! 🤤

I’ve been pressing my own flowers for a variety of projects. Mainly eco printing for my silk and organic cotton scarves. I do have another surprise project that I’ve done with pressed flowers; soon to be revealed! Stay tuned! Happy Monday! 🌺 🌼 🍫

A dirty pot filled with leaves, flowers, eucalyptus, silk, a rusty horseshoe (for good luck among other things) and vinegar! 😮 Check out the results! 2 beautiful silk scarves!

A new technique, and a new size (8”x72”) to add to my collection! How do you like them?

Thank you @nicolabrownclasheen for your inspiration! It was my first time trying a dirty pot and I love the results!

My spoonflower shop as been very busy, so I thought it was time to add some fresh new pattern designs! My inspiration for this particular one came from all of the seedlings I’ve recently planted for my dye garden! So many projects in the works!

My website is almost done. YAY! I’ll be doing a soft launch in the next few days while I still work some kinks out!

Did you know that Cochineal is an invasive insect found on prickly pear cacti, feeding on the plant moisture and nutrients? The bugs have a high dye content producing a gorgeous range of fuchsias, reds, and purples. The color can be shifted with different mordants. The dye from a cochineal bug is mostly used in food, drugs and cosmetics.

It produced these beautiful colors in this silk scarf. Thank you cochineal for your beautiful colors.

The beautiful color that Madder Root gives is like a warm sunset over the Colorado mountains. Madder Root is known for producing vibrant colors of reds, oranges, pinks and purples. It gives the richest color with patience; resting over night ends up achieving a deep, rich, saturated color. One of my favorite dyes to work with.

After a bit of a hiatus from the incredibly busy & successful markets last year, I am back in my studio and I am so excited to announce some new and upcoming things!

Here is a new arrival! An eco printed 100% silk habotai scarf hot off the presses! I have a ton of little seedlings popping up for my dye garden which is very exciting! I’ve also been busy designing a new and improved website that will be launching in the next week or so. It’s going to be very sleek, and have all products available in our online shop! Stay tuned & I’ll keep you posted! I am also excited to announce some workshops I am working on that will be available locally this summer! ☀️ I had so many inquiries wondering if I offered classes, so I’ve decided to get some going!Coming soon!

Thank you to everyone I’ve met at all of the markets and for all of your continuous love and support!

These Vintage Textile spool trees were made from industrial textile sewing spools and from vintage cotton lace doilies I repurposed from local antique stores! ( the spools I posted 2 posts ago) They are such a beautiful piece for your home that can be left out year around…

They will be available on my website after all of my holiday art markets are done… if you would like one in the meantime just DM me… They are $63.00 plus shipping! 🌲❤️

I love how this stitch resist turned out! I think I’ll be making some wall tapestries with this design in addition to the 100% organic cotton bandanas!

Summertime, Fall, Winter, OR Spring?!? This pashmina can be wore anytime of year and with many variations!

Oh, how I love dyeing with Indigo! The process is magical, so many different resists that I can do to create so many different patterns! It’s always so satisfying when I untie everything and open it up to see the end result! Pure magic!

This will be available in my shop at the Boulder market THIS Sunday! Stop in to say hi if you can!

Marigolds dye so beautifully! I dyed this with marigold then I bundle dyed it with many fresh flowers from my garden, and added a sprinkle of cochineal.

Did you know Cochineal is a scale insect that invades the nopal cactus and is about the size of a grain of rice with a silvery purple hue. It produces the most beautiful pinkish reds. Every time I use cochineal while dyeing I thank him/her for the beautiful color you have given me. 🌵❤️

Restocking for my upcoming market! Summer seems to be flying by!

This 36x36, 100%silk habotai with a rolled hem was indigo dyed. It needed some more pizzazz so I over dyed it and bundle dyed it with fresh flowers from my garden. 😍 and just like that 🫰 she has a voice! ♥️

I have SO many things in the works.. one of which is trying to keep up with my dye garden that is producing so many beautiful flowers; much faster than I can use them! That’s a great issue to have! So I’m pressing and drying as many as I can!🌸

Who doesn’t love a real dried flower garland?! It smells divine!

Just got back from another beautiful vacation. So grateful for all of these different journeys to gather various inspirations from all kinds of different cultures. I plan on incorporating it into my artwork.

On this HOT day I thought why NOT turn on the stove top and heat this kitchen up!! 😎

Cooking up some more beautiful silk scarves for my shop! Can’t wait to share the end results with y’all! ❤️☀️🌸🌲

A bit of hand stitching and resist ties to create this one. Without realizing it; to me it looks like mountains and the beautiful ☀️ and 🌕 opposite each other. Haha! 🤷‍♀️ 😎

This is the first year for my dye garden. The blooms are coming in faster than I can use them. So it is time to press these pretty little things so they don’t go to waste… 🌺 🌸

You’ll hear me say this a lot for the next few weeks….😊

Restocking my inventory after such a successful art market last weekend in #boulder 🌺

Happy Saturday! Have fun no matter where you are, or whatever you may be doing. Stop to be in the moment and find the beauty that is surrounding you!✌️

This one of a kind, 100% organic bandana flew off the shelf at the market last weekend! Each textile that I create, has its own personality, which is one of the reasons I love what I’m creating!

Today I’m working on restocking lots of items for the next market!

Flowers, flowers everywhere, just the way I like it! 🌸♥️ I always love the element of surprise when I’m eco printing! I always think I know how it will turn out, but it always turns out even prettier!
