many of us living near san francisco know to expect the natural air conditioning of fog to roll in through the summer months. where i live in marin (just north of san francisco), summer months bring warmer days and comfortable evenings with chirping crickets among other warm and bright memories.

an assortment of reminders of what's around the corner.

summer in northern california is on its way.

have a bright week.

wood is such a warm and useful material. such delicate details surround wood. this small sampling is my visual ode to this inspiring material and to those talented makers who know how to show it off so well.

have an inspiring week.

uplifting and ethereal. that's what comes to my mind when i see elizabeth bennet perched on the edge of this incredible cliff. it was a great scene from pride and prejudice with keira knightley as elizabeth bennet. watching this scene made me feel like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. it was pretty. swirling from one charming detail to another has me dizzy with delight.

have an uplifting week.
