Please let me know any of your holiday needs early! I'd love to get in some projects before the holidays.

If you are looking for a fantastic holiday card photographer, my friend Vikki Dinh is doing PB Beach photos with her beach santa and this prop she had me create. There are just a few slots left!

Call out for new and gently used kid and family costumes.
Sunday October 13, SD Family Magazine hosts its annual Halloween Kidsfest at the Kroc Center and they are collecting costumes for military and veteran families. If you'd like to donate but don't plan to attend, you are welcome to drop them at 4005 Mt Albertine Ave and Aidan and I will ensure they make it into the donation. The goal is 600 costumes.

Should you purchase, please consider Spirit Halloween SD as they donate hundreds of costumes to Rady Children's patients that will be in the hospital over the Halloween holiday-SO YOU GIVE TWICE! As you may know, Aidan was in the NICU over Christmas and has had one other holiday stay. The generosity of strangers at these challenging times is never forgotten. We still have the Santa Hat and quilt that talented folks made for all the NICU babies.

Whole lotta holiday in the studio.
And the living room. And the patio. And the garage.

Take a husband out for a pint. The marriage you save may be mine.

It's August.
Holiday Craft Consternation meets joyous creation. Looking like paper maché ate Christmas at my house+Eagles, Goats, chairs, Kamala and Jerry Garcia. Yeah. That weird.
Here, the first steps in a giant nutcracker helmet made with a beach ball and the tubing from the washer we just replaced. This will be my first and only football player giant nutcracker. I don't think I can produce them cheaply enough to sell affordably.

One of my favorite clients is selling their historic El Cerrito home. Many accents by me with the owner's attention to detail.
Gorgeous, spacious, and fantastic for outdoor living. Dog doors and enclosed outside space for pets or littles. Walkable neighborhood with annual 4th of July celebration and lots of pride in ownership.

More beautiful in person.
