Updates: Coming Back Home

We Moved!

John and I drove a UHaul full of stuff 800 miles from Seattle to Oakland this weekend, officially closing the chapter of our lives in Seattle. The change was bittersweet: We were both so excited to come back home, but also so sad to leave all of the amazing people we met while living there. I know that we will have a lot of life-long friends from that experience.

For now, I'll be working as a part-time Creative Sales Associate at Paper Source, and hopefully picking up some freelance work. I'm also planning to contact some florists to see if I can apprentice with them and help set up weddings. Excited to try my hand at it!

Letterpress: Home Postcard Series

Sadly, my letterpress class at SVC is almost over! But I managed to print these two postcards in my "Home" postcard series on the Pearl. I'm hoping I can finish the other three sometime in the near future...

Work in Progress: Home

Quote from Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros

I've been wanting to make something for myself lately, so I decided to start making things about home. This might turn into a book, or printed cards, who knows. I probably need to get off the computer.

Home Sweet Home

Well, being in Nashville was definitely an interesting experience, and interning at Hatch was amazing! But being home is such a relief, I had no idea how much I had missed it!

Now we have one month to pack, clean, and hang out with friends before we move to Seattle in August. I'll be interning at Cognition Studio, and John will hopefully find a job in the video game industry.

For now, the only thing on my to-do list is to get rid of all this junk:

Luckily, I also have work to do for Sarah & Ezra's day-of wedding collateral, so at least I have something creative to do! (More posts about this once it's all designed and printed!)
