sweltering auggie (+ july re-cap)

i'm writing this august 12, but post-dating it to august first.. such trickery!

here's the measly july postings you may have missed:
indian summer engagement party
my apologies
july manifesto + june re-cap

but since i have been so out-of-touch online, i've been out doing cool things..like surfing. totally obsessed. prepping for our costa rica trip :)

july started out pretty rainy, but man, we needed it after last year's drought.

a collection of neon stuff on my desk. office supplies rule.

a peek into the upcoming OKRA charity bar. yup - houston's getting a charity bar. drink for good!

me & the surfboard board in port aransas. yeah, it was pretty big.

my friend andie & her pentax. no illusions here, this camera is LARGE.

gorgeous sunset at surfside.

it's here, it's open : charm & fig

so happy to announce that my etsy shop, charm & fig, is finally up and running!

if you follow this blog, you may recognize some of the items. here's a little peek at some of my new stuff. as you can see, all of these designs are inspired by the beach, which tells me i'm ready for a little vacation.

women's stationery - neon pink & grey

did i mention andie was getting married? ok, i'm excited! because of the upcoming nuptials, she's got lots of note writing to do, (like a proper lady would!)

among many other things, andie and i share a fond love for neon. these are also a little surfer-inspired -- she went to maui to visit her family over the summer and all of her photos are amazing. hopefully she'll share some on her blog soon. if she doesn't update, give her a break; she's usually in the rice lab studying nano crystals and conducting experiments.




thanks andie for letting me make these :)
