On the New Moon, the earth, moon, and sun align making us unaware of the moon’s presence in the sky. Without the visual presence and glow of the moon, other celestial bodies typically hidden now shine brighter. Our chances of seeing the sky clearly are heightened on this day, making it a day of clarity […]
As a freelance designer, I’m constantly thinking of non-traditional ways to earn a living. In fact, it’s truly become harder and harder to describe what it is that I ‘do’ when people ask that routine question. I’m sure many others struggle with this as well… sometimes I just pick one thing and go with that […]
February is here, and has already brought with it some sunshine and beautiful weather. The doves and quail are back preparing for Spring, and we’ve been driving around town with our windows down. To set the scene, we’ve put together some of our favorite songs to listen to in the car with the soft breeze blowing in (and preferably Joshua Trees whizzing by).
After living in the desert for almost a year full-time now (we ditched city living in March of 2016), we’ve been able to experience the cacti surrounding us seasonally.
We’re beginning the new year by simplifying our lives, and finding simple pleasure in all of our senses. Music is such an integral part of our experience here in the desert. This playlist includes many of our recent favorites.
I’ve gotten a lot of requests in the last few months for prints of my Yoga Class pattern. I wanted to make the best quality prints possible, and decided to do a limited edition signed set of only 30 prints. They’re printed on cold-press paper, and I’m so happy with how they turned out! You […]
Since we launched the Joshua Tree House on Airbnb, its been an amazing experience seeing the talent that passes through there. Our guest book is filling up with beautiful sketches from guests, and we get to see incredible images people are sharing of the house on Instagram. We get so much excitement out of seeing […]
I recently worked with Casetify to create a collection of phone cases, laptop sleeves, and watch bands. Designing patterns is incredibly fun, but seeing them come to life on products is always the best part. Casetify shared the photo above on their Instagram, letting us all know that eggs and toast are not limited to […]
While we were in Tulum, the weather was ok, but really not the best. This meant clouds, and churned up waters. BUT, as soon as we took our ferry from Cancun over to Isla Mujeres everything cleared up and the water looked bright turquoise. I’ve never seen water like that! It was quite the contrast after seeing gray for […]
Tulum is a place that both Rich and I have had our eyes on for a while now. We usually opt for adventurous trips, but this around a time a relaxing beach trip was looking pretty appealing. Neither of us had been to Mexico before, and it seemed like it was about time to make it […]
