Summer’s finally here! And boy am I happy, happy, happy! So much to do, and the sunshiny weather helps to make it all run a lil’ more smoothly. Cheers to living dreams and realizing goals. New work coming soon …in the interim enjoy this little ditty (not about Jack or Diane) – This is the Intro. 


Stephanie Odegard – Staying Fresh

If you’re in Midtown East - or even if you’re not- you should make your way over to Odegard’s newly renovated showroom at NYDC; Revamped by Stephen Wanta Architect AIA.  xoxo


Please pardon the bloggyness: OFFICIAL WEBSITE COMING SOON… 


ICFF – The ID world’s equivalent to Fashion week – is just days away, and I’m so incredibly superfluously hypy! Oh, the delight! I can just imagine all the BRAND-SPANKIN’-NEW product unveiling that is soon to unfurl. Eek! (Ugh, I need to get my hair “did”.)

Totally diggin’ the good vibrations on site @ one of our most recent projects (still in progress). This space subtly sings, “Boho-chic”. Even the paint color’s name pays homage to the interior’s ambience – Old Soul.

Monday Hope - pressing forward

The older I get the more grateful I become for my upbringing, and the activities that helped to shape the person I am; and the future me. I’m grateful for being brought up in a community that, despite its many faults, placed a high value on the ARTS. Distinctly, that my choral group spent, literally, countless hours learning this, and other pieces like this (along with their historical backstory): 

I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining
And I believe in love,
even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God, 
even when he is silent.

I believe through any trial,
there is always a way
But sometimes in this suffering
and hopeless despair
My heart cries for shelter,
to know someone’s there
But a voice rises within me, saying hold on
my child, I’ll give you strength,
I’ll give you hope. Just stay a little while.

I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining
And I believe in love
even when there’s no one there
But I believe in God
even when he is silent
I believe through any trial
there is always a way.

May there someday be sunshine
May there someday be happiness
May there someday be love
May there someday be peace….”

HAPPY MONDAY. PUSH! 


I told myself, “Self, you’ve got to go to bed bf 12A”. Yep, that didn’t happen - I’m up working. 2A Hustling, too much to do. What a life; can’t say I hate it.
