• Hi, I'm Lisa-mommy to my boys, David, 7 and Matty, 6 and wife to Steve. In between school and work we spend our time playing outdoors on the central coast of CA, eating chocolate chip pancakes, tapping tunes on the piano (David) and choreographing elaborate lightsaber duels (Matty). I create handmade jewelry and love taking pictures. Stick around and get to know us!

today i’m feeling inspired by…

little boys who carry yellow plastic baskets with racecars
our local mexican restaurant with aqua walls and hanging glassware

fresh blueberries at the farmer’s market

the idea of a getaway, even it means a cheap motel

little shoes on a sun-bleached mat

    A picnic in the park with homemade goodies (not that pick-it-up at the Drive Thru on your way kind of picnic), a blanket in the shade under a great big tree, and little feet in the sandbox.

    pink flowers in my garden (and on the circle skirt I just sewed for my 5 year-old to twirl in)

    Blueberries is my husband’s favorite fruit. Have you tried blueberries with chocolate covers? I thought it was interesting, but my husband LOVES it.

    By the way, my sons LOVES Cars and Speed Race Cars. You probably have seen Matt saying, “Vrrrooom” or crashing the other cars just like my sons. :-)

    I was inspired by my mother who is a real GREEN thumb. So, it forced me to remind myself watering the plants/flowers every other day.

    Love your work! Told my man today that I wanted a piece of Lisa when we get our first child! ;)

    That picture of Mattie with the yellow basket with his matchbox cars inside. It reminds me of when Isaac used to push his trains around the house in the baby doll stroller.
