Laura and Ashton had the most beautiful wedding day and I’m so grateful to have these photos to look back on! From the flowers, to the dress, to the perfect fall palette — Laura did an amazing job with every detail of the planning.
Fall Blooms
Fall blooms from dear friends really brightened up a hard week. Hope your Fall is filled with cooler days and colorful leaves!
Lettering for Halloween Honeycomb
Spooky season is here and I loved getting to contribute lettering to another honeycomb Paper Wonder! I can’t wait to display this one all season long.

Holiday Mart 2021
Over the past year the JLKCMO’s Holiday Mart Committee has been hard at work bringing back our in-person show for 2021! I was proud to serve as Chief-of-Staff and Step-Up Co-Chair alongside Heather Peña. Kirsten and Danee, the 2021 Chairs, did an amazing job and we have lots to live up to as we kick off planning for 2022! If you live in Kansas City mark your calendars for September 28-October 3rd, 2022 to shop and support our community!

September Around The Web
September was all about weddings! Before all the festivities began we started the month with a Labor Day weekend boating at Turkey Hill and had dinner to celebrate Barbara’s birthday at Lake Winnebago. The next week Grace and I got our nails done before Laura and Ashton’s wedding weekend, Holiday Mart held our Pre-Con meeting, and then Dale and I packed and headed to LA to celebrate Matt and Caitlin. As soon as we were home Holiday Mart move-in and show week began! This month was a whirlwind and had some definite lows as well. Fall has arrived and I’m having a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that there are just a few months left in 2021. Never have I had to try harder to embrace the season we are in!
Kate’s kitchen stopped me in my tracks. It’s so unique and refreshing and has me wanting to include a lot more color and quirk in my home.
Julia’s fall table also caught my eye! I love the beautiful florals and how the dishes stick within the same pink palette.
Krystal’s styling and photography are always so inspiring. These photos truly feel like Fall.
I’m not a huge baker, or chef for that matter, but I would love to try these pumpkin snickerdoodle cookies!
Living in a smaller home, I always enjoy others’ tips and tricks for how they best utilize their space, especially in the kitchen.
And on the opposite end of the spectrum, penthouse inspiration.
It’s soup season!
This burgundy color is going to be popular this year I think!
Let’s embrace The Season
Matt and Caitlin: The Wedding
The grand finale of our California trip, Matt and Caitlin’s wedding!! It was a truly magical day — the weather was perfect and we danced the night away. We couldn’t be more grateful we got to spend time with so many college friends in the most beautiful place.
