Sunshine and Wow

Thanks to Maui Jim for sponsoring this memory… (giveaway below) The older I get, the more I appreciate moments of intention. Perhaps it stems from being in the middle of a particularly frenzied season – an active baby weaving underfoot as I navigate the workload of an entrepreneur while attempting to carve out a life

Few things make me smile brighter than great design for a good cause – especially when an element of play is in full force. Enter A Doll’s House, a wildly successful fundraiser event in England last night that raised over £90,000 for KIDS, a national charity working with disabled children and their families. The gist?

Splendidly Mothering

Recently, one of my favorite brands Splendid asked myself and a few of our editors at Clementine Daily to style our favorite pieces from their fall/winter collection.

Senan Lee and Pansy Aung were just two London artists having a fleeting conversation about work/life balance when, as it all too often does, inspiration struck. “We decided to visualize our feelings about the life of being creatives in a physical sculpture,” Pansy writes.

Fridge-Worthy

My parents were both school teachers, so we had no shortage of educational toys scattered about our home on any given day. One of my favorites were Tangrams – I fondly remember an entire summer dedicated to creating different animals from the colored triangles at my disposal. Now, a short 25-something years later, I still
