I am so ready for the US to have a budget, government to re-open, shootings to stop happening so regularly and for life to get back to PSLs and apple orchards. Aren't you?
I'm just going to go ahead and pretend that all is normal though.
This week in my kitchen studio, I've been making and packaging candles, coaster sets and dying fabrics like a crazy person in preparation for this double header of a weekend - Saturday at Arts on the Avenue and Sunday at the Takoma Park Street Festival!
Taking a moment to remember what is good in the world - I love fall, neighborhood festivals and pumpkins. Also, I love the movie You've Got Mail and am in LOVE with this bouquet of sharpened pencils DIY from The House That Lars Built. Other than school supplies, fall also makes me crave cool mugs and I am loving the new crocheted jewelry trend.
Don't you just love the photo above of my grapefruit 4 oz candle by the amazing potter, Ms. Rayna Pazmino? It's very fall and peaceful, just what I need today.
Alright, off to enjoy some pints and then back to making candles, knitting and watching Thursday night comedy on NBC! See you hopefully in Del Ray or Takoma Park this weekend! (Federal employees get 15% off!)

Sometimes creating a facade of normalcy is for the best amongst the chaos.
