Life Size Katie Cutout

My dad always says that I don't come home enough so last Christmas I made him a life size Katie cutout.

She's a great listener, she's always smiling and she's always by your side. Just what my dad wants!
Untitled
Now I can be home for every family dinner,
Untitled
constantly confuse my spanish speaking grandmother,
Untitled
and laugh at all my dad's jokes!

Cute iPhone Accessory

Untitled
My earphones broke the other day. Instead of just throwing them out, I tried to think of what else I could do with them and a cute idea popped in my head!
Untitled
 I took a little toy and drilled a hole in it. Then I cut off the jack to the earphones and super glued it in the toy.
Untitled
Then I plugged the little guy into my phone!
Untitled
Now I have a cute Poo mascot to go with my wallpaper reminding me to get crap done!

What things make you nostalgic?


Last weekend while taking a walk, I stopped at a stoop sale. A large bin had caught my eye and when I lifted up the cover...

Untitled

it was filled to the top with toys from my childhood! 
Untitled

Suddenly all of these wonderfully sweet, warm and loving memories came back to me that I had completely forgotten about.

Untitled

While looking through the toys with a big goofy smile on, the owner approached me and said, "You can take the whole bin home for five dollars"

Untitled
Five dollars?! I couldn't believe the deal I was getting! 
Untitled
Realistically, this was just a bin of old, cheap, plastic objects but to me... it was like gold.
Untitled
 I was able to bring back a flood of happy childhood memories that were locked up in a room inside my head… 
Untitled
and it only cost me five dollars to buy the key.

How to make a bad day better

It's a very simple equation...  Bad Day + Balloons = Happiness!
Untitled
Once you blow up a crazy amount of balloons you can...
Untitled
let them loose on your bed and dance,
Untitled
Confuse your cat,
Untitled
Tie them all together and take a walk through the park looking like a giant balloon bouquet with legs,
Untitled
         and have the most colorful apartment on the block!

How to make rainbow flowers

001
Step 1- Find some pretty white flowers.
 ( carnations work best! )
002
Step 2- With a sharp knife and a superhuman steady hand, split the end of the flower's stem into four sections and put each section in a different cup of colored water.
Moo is confused
Step 3- Wait and wait with your Moo cat...
003
And Bam!
004
Pow!
005
Boom!
006
You've just made some awesome rainbow flowers.

Tampax Ad

Super fun news! I was contacted by Tampax to be part of their new campaign about stand out girls.
Untitled
 They wanted to feature three creative, unique, real women with their art. A street artist, yarn bomber, and balloon artist. It's the first time they've ever used real women in their ads instead of models!
Untitled
I loved the whole idea of the campaign and was excited to be a part of it. 
Untitled
I flew out to LA and started decorating the streets!

In addition to the ad, we also made a super fun commercial. I just love the music!
