I was contacted by the lovely gals who make up Design*Sponge recently to be considered for their sneak peek section of the site. This is where they show you the design interiors of designers. How flattering to be asked! Well, I immediately started cleaning! Luckily, over the last year or two, I have been getting rid of a lot of junk or at least storing it in my studio. Well, I shot the place and pointed out some of my favorite objets and added in a little bit of my design philosophy. They took that and made this wonderful article of it, I hope you like it. Thank you Design*Sponge!

Last night I did a one hour stencil demo at the grand opening of Michaels, their first store in Manhattan. The store is spectacular, well worth a visit- Very geared towards the New York audience. Well the staff deserves big praise, they helped me the entire night and we had fun together showing people how to stencil tote bags, cards, t-shirts, and a pumpkin! Check out the pictures! Thanks Chronicle Books and Michaels!
