If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!Ever feel a worry hangover? Cause I think that’s what I am in right now. Last night while I was making dinner, my five year old daughter took a head-first trip down the stairs. I was sitting at the kitchen Read More

Doodling through it
When I start doodling I get page fright. It’s like stage fright only with a blank piece of paper. Sometimes I have way too many ideas rolling around in my head and can’t decide which one to do- and sometimes none of the ideas I previously had want to show up when I have the Read More

Sledding and it’s Unforeseen Complications
We went sledding last Sunday. A wholesome family activity that is just a bastion of childhood. Sledding in the Northeast is one of those christmas carol, currier and ives, type of activities. It’s pastoral. It’s active. It has the tinge of winter magic woven right through it. But sometimes, sledding isn’t quite so magical. On Read More

Blizzard sparrows and their expletives
Hello from the frozen tundra that is upstate New York! We were smack dab in the middle of that blizzard that ripped through the northeast on Tuesday. On the plus side, however, this little bit of inspiration happened. I thought about what my rose bush sparrows must be thinking. There’s a whole colony of them Read More

Sloths & more- shop update
First off- Updated Sloths! I meant to expand on my sloth items for a while now. What I didn’t realize was how much I already have! The stickers that are so well loved over on etsy are splitting off onto other items here on ladysparrowhawk! So far we have the rainbow wig sloth, the fez, Read More

Peacock Totes Dope
Look at this Dope Peacock tote! LOOK AT IT! I don’t even like peacocks all that much. I’m not a “showy” person. In fact, it’s almost 11am and it’s a minor miracle that I’m actually dressed. So what’s this peacock love about? I work for this lovely company called Greymount Paper & Press. That lovely Read More

Welcome to the Silver Fox Club
I harass my husband. In fairness, he is a fox. He walks away; I make “Mmmhm MMM” noises. I use his washing the dishes as an opportunity to ogle him. Someone labeledĀ his gym trips “silver fox training” in our calendar ap. Who could that have been?! It’s a mystery for the ages. So, this Read More

Sharing is Caring
Social media is haaarrd. Sharing is easy. In fact, sharing is so easy for me that I can’t contain myself. I am so excited for even the simplest of things- that I can’t stop myself from showing EVERYONE. This is a problem. It’s a problem because people like campaigns. People like a story. They love Read More

Hopped to It!
IĀ reached into the bottom of the purse earlier this week and something hopped into my hand. Sometimes an idea gets buried deep, or a recovered artifact spurs a brand new creation. Now anyone who carries a bag must know what I mean by the bottom of the purse. It’s the deep dark place where Read More
To-Don’t Lists, when to-do keeps not getting to-done
Here we are again. Staring at a blank blank blog. I told myself to write a blog post. It’s on my to-do list and it gets pushed back at least a few days every week. It’s almost part of my brand new to-don’t list. What is a To-Don’t list? I decided that when faced with Read More
