Thanks to my lovely partner Koko, the nursery has its first piece of wall art.

The process:
She drew the monster, then heavily colored it with crayon [in this case yellow] and washed over the entire canvas with watered down acrylic paint. Then she took a sharpie to outline it. Wallah! Simple and oh so cute.

Thank you again, Koko!



Here’s To You

It is no secret I would like nothing more than to quit working a 9-5 job and devote all my time, energy and creative juice to Koko Kreepies. We are entering our second year and some BIG changes are about to happen.

For starters, we want to take care of you. Because after all, we would be nothing without you. My first plan of action is to blog every day. So be prepared to have a Kreepie overload!

Second, we not only want to share our creations with you, we want this to be a place you can find inspiration, ideas and get a glimpse into our creative madness! We want to give back to you since you’ve given us so much!

With that said, some new categories will be popping up. All categories will be pictorial, so no more reading [well, reading captions maybe!] Things you can look forward to include:

Tips & Tutorials
Our Inspirations
House & Studio Tours
Fabric Addiction Stories
Our Creative Process
Projects
Life [including my pregnancy and life with new baby]
Our Pets
Graphic Design Work

And speaking of fabric addictions, I just scored this little number at an estate sale a few weeks ago.


[note: hand was NOT included!]

It belonged to a little old lady and I am assuming it was a scarf. I have no idea what I have in store for it, but all I know is I had to have it.

Any suggestions?

And, I would like to add today is my three year wedding anniversary! Boy how time can slip right through you fingertips!
