I’m gonna tell you a little story about doing something wrong and how that can stick with you for years. Once upon a time, more years ago than I care to say, when I was in high school – there was this super gifted artist who I hung around with. I had a bad case [...]

Little by little…

…the new studio space is getting there. I’ve got a bit more unpacking to do, but I’m already loving the space so much! It’s positively luxurious. Truly amazing what having sufficient storage/bins/shelves will do for your workspace. So now that I’m all moved, I’ve got a dedicated table for working with resins, metal and polymer [...]
Moving…

Around this time last year, I got the bright idea to start a creative business and work out of my house. Because my oldest child had moved out and my youngest child and I were more apt to eat dinner in the living room, I turned the dining room into my workspace. Heh. No really. [...]
Love, like art, is a crapshoot

This is an older piece from last year – reposting it because I think it’s fairly relevant for the day at hand. Love. Art. Jump in. It is all going to be okay.
It’s about that time of year again…

Great googly moogly, is it Valentine’s Day already? It is! Well I guess my inner conflict with this holiday really got in the way of doing any crazy V-Day marketing for Honey&Ollie, didn’t it! It’s not that I don’t love a day that’s all about loving up the people in your life. I adore Valentine’s [...]

Things sure do come and go quickly around here…

I just realized my last post was over a week ago! Things got busy here Chez Honey&Ollie, what with the whole Chinese New Year show and all the living we’ve been doing. Chinese New Year was fabulous and the folks at LA Craft Experience are really to be commended for their hard work. Everything went [...]
Pre-show crunch time!
Posted in Uncategorized on January 26, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
The studio is a disaster, there’s a man high pile of laundry on the sofa, dishes are unwashed, and we’re having cold cereal for dinner for the second time this week. It MUST be crunch time for the Chinese New Year event put on by LA Craft Experience in downtown LA’s Chinatown district! I’ll be [...]
looking a little bit like springtime
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged chinese new year show, spring colors, winter weather on January 20, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
We leave the previous politically inspired rant about badly written legislation and ethical behavior, and get back to the things we like to read about… like new Etsy shop listings in lovely spring colors. I’m still anxiously awaiting some rain, or winter, or something though. Don’t let these soft flower garden palettes fool you. It’s [...]
Dark?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged reality check on January 18, 2012 | 4 Comments »
Honey and Ollie has not gone dark today because I don’t know how to do that. So I’m gonna say this instead. A lot of folks are talking about going “dark” today, signing petitions, fightings SOPA and PIPA. That’s great! Here’s the question… how many of y’all who are going “dark” and signing petitions then [...]
