Alt Summit- A Beautiful Experience

By Violet | Published: January 23, 2012

I’m back from Salt Lake City for my big trip to Alt Design Summit, and I can honestly say that I’m swirling with emotions: happy, sad, excited, inspired, motivated, overwhelmed, and mostly thankful for such an amazing opportunity. I don’t think that I could ever put into words all of the fantastic things that I experienced, but here’s to giving it a try.

First, let me tell you about my sweet roomie. Being friends with Emily since we opened our Etsy shops in early 2009, it was great to finally meet and spend our days at Alt together. We laughed a lot, got along fab, and brought each other some… Continue reading | 1 Comment

Are you having a Happy Holiday?

I’m so excited thinking of what’s to come for 2012, and I’m ready to celebrate at a midnight soiree with friends tomorrow

But first I wanted to feature a beautiful website that just launched for my client, Tara from Glutenull. It took a bit of time for us to decide on a color palette, because they all seemed to look pretty darn good with this design. I have to admit, I really love the end result!

Hope you start your New Year with a BANG!!!!! See you in 2012 … Continue reading

Who said diamonds are a girl’s best friend?

For me, it’s tanzanite. I completely love that it changes colors in different lighting (mainly violet =) (Did you know that there is actually a color-grading scales dividing tanzanite colors into a range of hues, between blue violet and violet blue?)

Fly High

By Violet | Published: November 16, 2011

I’ve been drinking a lot of tea lately, and realized I don’t have a ‘me’ cup. Do you have a special cup that you usually grab for your morning cup of coffee or tea?

While doing some blog reading, I hopped over to my friend’s Akiyo’s blog (My Dear Darling), and I found this little treasure- the Fly High Mug Cup. And I’m putting it at the top of my soon-to-be Christmas list, ha!

You may remember the super… Continue reading | 2 Comments
