JUJU: A new body of work

JUJU No.1

JUJU No.2

Hey. I know, I know, it's been a while. But, baby, you know I still love you. You're the only one for me and everything.

Anyway, I started a new body of work—fine Art!—called Juju. Upcoming posts will explain this title more in depth. Right now I just want to show the first 2 prints. I made them completely analog, cutting out the pieces from thick paper and taping them to sheets of mylar to make the films for screen printing.

More to come. Seriously. Stay tuned!

No. 6 — now with more leather (rings)

Enameled leather rings, available soon from my Etsy shop. More shapes and color combos to come!

More lanterns... is this marketable?

I bought some wood-grain Con-Tact paper on impulse from the hardware store a few months ago, and I've finally found a use for it! So far I've made 4 lanterns with it. 3 hang from the ceiling, and one is holding some dried flowers on my kitchen table. Personally, I think it's super fantastic. But would you buy this if I put it up on Etsy (for cheap)? Like, in sets of 2 pieces (1 hanging lantern and a smaller matching vase/pencil holder one?) Hmmm??

No. 5 — Paper Lanterns! FUN!

Paper is fuuuuun! Last week I saw some of these things decorating the window of a paper store. I had to make them! Plus, what else are you gonna do in Iowa? These amazing, cheap decorations are truly underrated.

No. 4 — Tableaus at Home

Here's something about me y'all should know: I collect shit. Cute shit. Charming, adorable, shiny, laquered shit. And I arrange it all over my house. Can't help it. My friends made fun of me at our last BBQ because I was arranging the condiments, like there was gonna be some kind of Trader Joe's photo shoot.

Needless to say, this blog has become a convenient outlet for my neurotic tendencies! Onward, to more arrangements!
