It was such a pleasure to host a Fabric Flower Making session today at Lark Workshop with another amazing artist. I was truly inspired by her creations and learned so much from her sharp artistic eye for flower design. She even captured beautiful portraits of me with my own creation!

It’s incredibly rewarding to spend time in the presence of such a skilled fellow artist. She also surprised me with the sweetest gift—tiny hearts and butterflies for my bride and groom knitting dolls. I’m so grateful for her generosity, talent, and support 💗🌸🙋‍♀️ very special thanks to Lark for hosting the workshop and Deborah for taking such amazing portraits and flower designs @ojaiheart 🌸🙋‍♀️💗🎉

I miss my friend and collaborator Gigi, hopefully next time she can enjoy our workshop 💗🌸🙏

🕊️ Stop War in Iran 🇮🇷

Too many lives have been shattered.
Too many hearts broken.
We, the people, want peace — not power struggles, not foreign invasions, not more bloodshed.
Let Iran breathe.
Let our voices be heard.
Let there be peace.

‎ما مردم، صلح می‌خواهیم — نه جنگ قدرت، نه تجاوز بیگانگان، نه خون‌ریزی بیشتر.
‎بگذارید ایران نفس بکشد.
‎بگذارید صدای ما شنیده شود.
‎بگذارید صلح برقرار شود.

✨ It was such a joy visiting Tara de la Garza’s studio at Caburley for @openstudiossv! 💚 Tara is the visionary founder of Inventurous — a sustainable initiative that transforms shredded plastic into bold, creative, and useful objects. One of her standout creations? Fashionable trash bags! 👜♻️

Tara’s work centers around environmental justice and caring for our planet. Through her art, she tells the hidden stories of our collective consumption — especially the impact of single-use plastics. Her practice is like an archaeological dive into the waste of our times, uncovering beauty and meaning in what we throw away. 🌍🌀

It was such a joy to create beautiful blooms from repurposed fabric — proving that sustainability can be stylish and fun.

Big love to my amazing friend Gigi for doing this collaborative workshop — we both make a good team with our creativity and energy! 💚❤️
Let’s keep crafting, connecting, and caring for our planet 🌸🙋‍♀️💗 🌎✨ I loved the way these two beautiful couples made their own Kanzashi 🌹 filled with love and cheerfulness 🌸 Special thanks to Sunnyvale Library for such a beautiful event for the community 🌸🙋‍♀️
