Thumbnail image for Cricut, Smallful & your crafty afternoon

I’ve teamed up with the team at Cricut to create some amazing new projects for your Cricut Explore One™ and Cricut Explore Air™ machine. (and, if you don’t have a Cricut, most of the projects include instructions to make them on your own as […]

Smallful debuts in Mollie Makes Magazine

Thumbnail image for Smallful debuts in Mollie Makes Magazine

Guess what?! Mollie Makes included Smallful’s Fantastical Fox Mask in their most recent issue – Issue #53 to be exact. It’s not a huge feature, I’ll give you that, but it’s still pretty amazing to know I can go to the bookstore and see my little creation on the pages of a real, honest-to-god magazine. And […]

new from Smallful: in the clouds mobile

Thumbnail image for new from Smallful: in the clouds mobile

I have been fascinated with mobiles since I was a kid. I remember the first time I saw Alexander Calder’s work in person – back in grade school – and being absolutely mesmerized. He developed the most amazing mobiles, and many of the modern mobiles you see now use similar balancing techniques and sometimes the same forms. I’m […]

Need a little love to keep you warm on these cold nights? Besides your kids and partners, of course. Big Stuffed albino sea creatures are big – 25 – 35″ big! – and made of soft cotton and cotton faux furs. They just look perfectly squeezable even in the photos, so much so that I’m ready […]

Wow. Here we are. This is a project I’ve wanted to start for a long time, but to be honest, I was afraid. Finally, thanks to the push of great friends and the help of Equilateral Design Studio (thank you Helen!), I’ve done it!!! Smallful is alive and kicking! I‘m taking lots of deep breaths over […]

a little birthday party and a big cake

Thumbnail image for a little birthday party and a big cake

Since our house is a re-modeling shambles, it seemed the best idea in the world to host Birdie’s 5th birthday party somewhere other than home sweet home. But I couldn’t let go of a couple personal touches – like a birthday cake and favors! Luckily Birdie was very excited by a flower-themed decoration scheme, which […]

dolls – the small wooden kind

Thumbnail image for dolls – the small wooden kind

I have got the Christmas bug in the worst way! And it always starts the same way: toy shopping. Thank goodness I have a little girl and some nephews to shop for, or that might sound a little crazy. Right now I’m obsessing over these gorgeous mod dolls designed by Suzy Ultmann. Do you think […]

one little red fox is actually kind of big

Thumbnail image for one little red fox is actually kind of big

A little shop with a lot of designerly muscle, that’s what I like. I’ve loved One Little Red Fox’s spectacled plush toys for a long time now – I really want one for my shelf – and it appears they’ve reeled me in again. Now they’re creating anthropomorphized pouches. Adorable ones. I’m not sure if […]

a little name with big potential

Thumbnail image for a little name with big potential

When I first saw these sweet little things, I wasn’t certain if they were vintage or new. That’s a very good thing if you ask me. I’m a sucker for  quality. What’s the phrase … if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it? I think we can all list some examples of toys that didn’t listen […]

prepping for the big show – what to wear?!

Thumbnail image for prepping for the big show – what to wear?!

Guess what?! I’m going to Vegas Baby! Which would be more fabulous if I liked to drink, or gamble, or stay up until 3 am. I guess it’s a good thing I’m going to attend the ABC Kids Expo, or my intentions would be pretty flimsy. I have several reasons to go. I’m an indepedent […]

big, bigger, biggest – Inklore's Growth Chart

I’ve been telling myself to wait until Birdie starts walking to worry about growth charts – she’s so close now! But I’m realizing that will just make her even more antsy and unwilling to stand against a wall! Oh boy. I still intend to get one, and this growth chart by Inklore is on the […]

dreaming big

oooh. An Awesome Book makes me tingle. It is a lovely rhyming singsong book with big ideals all wrapped up in very self-deprecating. approachable, lovable illustrations. I must have it. Because this is a book I can imagine reading to my daughter over and over again – which I hear most kids will force their […]
