Re-design of Wee Gallery Art Card Boxes

After 10 years, we finally decided that our box needed a wee update, and it so happened that we were printing all styles! Perfect timing. The new box has a slightly different layout, and emphasizes the title. It seems to be received really well!! Hooray!

Wee Gallery Ceramics designed for Imm Living

Our collaboration with Imm-Living is now out in the world! We Gallery now has ceramic sets for big and little kids available on our website. Loving food as much as I do, designing this collection has been a dream come true for me. Hope you like it too!!

No joke - Freshly Picked Review and Giveaway!

When I pick a baby gift for a friend or relative, I always choose the Art Cards (of course), and a little something else to go with it. Since the Art Cards are so graphic and smooth, I like to choose a contrasting item to go along. This time, Freshly Picked was nice enough to provide me with the cute, soft, and adorable accompaniment to my Art Cards! They came sweetly packed in a printed fabric bag, are really well made, and smell of gorgeous leather. The second part of this review will be completed after the mama who gets it uses it with her little guy :)

Now for the giveaway! I am giving away a set of Safari Art Cards, which have not yet been released, along with a pair of Freshly Picked moccasins which you can choose from Freshly Picked, to make the most amazing baby gift! This giveaway will be hosted on Instagram, so follow us, and either comment on the post, or tag one of your pics #weefresh to enter. Contest ends on Sunday the 6th of April, 2014 at midnight EST.

Memories

I took this picture at my cousin's wedding 15 years ago. Did you know that the bridegroom's name is incorporated into the henna design on the bride? Read more about the tradition here.

Dress up your Dress-Up Cards

I love how simple and effective painted patterns are in dressing up our dressup cards. Like my daughter says, "But mama, anyone can do that!"

New line of Wee Gallery Chalkboards available exclusively at Blik

We are so excited about these! A hybrid between traditional chalkboard and wall decals, these are functional as well as pretty. Made in California by Blik. Available here.

Papercut masks

Both my kids are doing plays at the moment so we have been having fun making masks. These are inspired by the art of paper cutting - my absolute favorite paper cutting artists are Elsa Mora and Rob Ryan. I bet they could make some amazing masks!

His and Hers Egg Cups

 I painted these egg cups for my kids, mustache and braids. So easy, using IKEA egg cups and porcelaine paint from Michaels.

Collaborative Art Project for Fundraiser

This year I volunteered to come up with an art project for my daughter's Second Grade class that will be bid on at our school annual fundraiser auction. Each of the kids carefully and meticulously made a flower of felt circles (squeezing in a lesson in geometry :)) starting with the littlest circle and ending with the biggest. They loved working with the Fabric Scissors, and their favorite part was choosing the Next Color. Each flower ended up being special and beautiful. I then sewed their names on a leaf, and attached it to their flower. Then I sewed 18 flowers onto a lovely cream velvet pillow cover from Ikea to make a soft and cosy garden of little flowers. I think it turned out beautiful!!

Laying it out.

All done!

Natural Baby Company

At the end of February I went to Bozeman, Montana to visit a very special little friend.

While we were there, we went to the Natural Baby Company, where I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely ladies there, as well as taking a look around their beautiful store. The sweet play area under the stairs was the cutest! All of you in Bozeman, Montana are lucky to have this wonderful store as your go-to baby resource.

NYIGF 2013

Here are some pics from the Trade Show in New York that we went to in January 2013. As usual it was fun, hard work, and fantastic to see all our lovely customers.

 Icy New York from the plane.

 Day one!

Imagining a white christmas

Yesterday's Holiday craft was to make ornaments, and my daughter decided to imagine herself in a snowglobe. She painted a wooden doll, and pasted it to a sheet of felt which we pasted to the bottom of the clear ball (plastic ball ornaments available at Michaels). We snipped a bit of the Christmas tree and added that in. Painted snow on the outside - isn't it pretty!?

Check out these really cool ball ornaments made by Pink and Green Mama.
