Thanks for following!


Devin Ford sure makes me look like I  know what I'm doing!

This will be one of my last posts on this blog. It's sad and bittersweet for sure, but GREATER things are ahead. New blog address and web design coming soon..



In the meantime, I MUST figure out how to transfer blogger posts to Wordpress. Does anyone know how to do this? I've been researching it and talking with my programmers, but haven't gotten very far...Help please!

My Website: Programming Patience

Lots of back and forth with my programmers around here. We're finalizing my new website—and crossing my fingers we will launch very soon, hopefully 2-3 weeks max.

So much hard work, sweat and tears have gone into this site. I honestly don't think I've ever worked so hard on any design project in my entire life. This site redesign started Spring 2013, so considering it's now FALL 2013, I am ready to have this baby behind me and in front of you!

Happy Labor Day weekend!

Recent Branding Boards


Here are some recent branding boards I've designed.

I haven't blogged about many of these because I've been so busy working on new projects. Every time I think about blogging, another deadline gets priority. Needless to say, all of these clients are very special to me and deserve their own post(s)...hopefully some day soon I will have time to share the stories, tears and sweat that went into each project. BUT, these days I'm lucky to post one work-related project per month—so here goes....









More coming soon. I saved some favorites for the next round so stay tuned...

New Branding and Website: Caroline Ceramics


The new Caroline Ceramics website is live! This was a true labor of love, and we so worked hard to make sure this site was everything it needed it be, including a shop and a blog. I can't tell you how much I love this girl, and it thrills me to see her beautiful work come alive on the site. The site design and branding is so Caroline, and that's what matters most in the end.

We can't wait to celebrate this beautiful artist's wedding in the Highlands in September!

Check it out. Caroline is the complete package. Her work is so original and beautiful, just like her sweet little self!

Around the house


I just realized I never shared the "after" pics from our landscaping project. It was completed a few months ago, and believe me, every time I walk outside I am so thankful to finally see grass and plants and trees! Charles Royal with Royal Landscaping helped us and did a fantastic job. Give him a call if you ever need anything landscaping related. 251.767.8725
  

Bruner built this window box a few Sunday's ago.  I'm amazed that something so small (and cheap!), can make such a huge difference.




I forgot to take an "after" shot of the entire house. Maybe I'll remember to take one eventually...when the weeds have grown back and the grass is brown again:)

Photo shoot #2 - Devin Ford Photography


Devin Ford Photography recently shot these photos of me and my family for my new website (coming August). Didn't she do an amazing job?? See photos from our 1st photo shoot here. I couldn't be more pleased with how these turned out. I swear she made us look 10x better than we actually do!


 
 


You should definitely hire Devin Ford Photography for your upcoming photo shoots. Devin worked as a photographer in Hollywood for 10+ years (photographing the stars) before she recently moved back home to Mobile. Check out her website for more info or follow her facebook page. I seriously can't give her a higher recommendation!

New Branding: Friends of the Delta


I just finished the branding design for "Friends of the Delta," which is a group of folks who work together to promote a new National Park in the Mobile-Tensaw Delta. See the website here. A new website is currently in the works! It was such a fun project to be a part of, and I can't wait to see what the "Friends of the Delta" do to help promote and restore our beautiful Mobile Delta.

insta-tile


I'm obsessed with these new photos on my fridge. We were at our neighbors house recently, and I spotted these tiles/photo magnets on her fridge. My neighbor, Leslie, is SO creative —separate post about her house coming soon! She's an art teacher and full of amazing ideas. Well, after 4+ days straight of rain on July 4th weekend, we started to get crafty. I completely copied her and got a bit carried away...




These are all of the ones I had left over, but I will find a home for them soon...


Here's how easy it was...
1. 4"x4" white tiles (I bought mine at Lowes but I'm sure you can buy these anywhere. They were only $0.16/each)
2. Take your camera to Walgreens. They print directly from your instagram photos.
3. Mod-podge the photos onto the tile
4. Use thick double-sided tape and put wherever your little heart desires.



I'm telling you I got a little carried away, but I love standing in the kitchen and showing calder all of her aunts and cousins and friends. That never gets old. We love looking at these fun memories and snapshots of good times we've had. Well you should definitely try this. You'll might love it so much you almost fill your entire room with these tiles! I almost did I swear.
