ERMIE at THE Unique Camp!

I am very excited to announce that I will be conducting a dyeing workshop at the Unique Camp, which will take place June 6-9th! My workshop will feature a basic introduction to color theory, dyeing techniques with both natural indigo and synthetic dyes, in a non-judgmental, supportive setting. I'll assist each student with their work- everyone will complete a take home project! 

The Unique Camp is:

"A 4-day creative conference that strategically curates workshops and experiences in three areas to stimulate both the mind and body.  There are small business workshops, creative art classes and outdoor challenges - all designed to help entrepreneurs thrive by stimulating both sides of the brain. 

 Registered Campers will choose the classes and workshops best suited for them from a long list of offerings such as Finding & Working with Investors, Product Photography that Sells, Search Engine Optimization, Finding Your Voice/Telling Your Story, and How to be a Great Boss.  

Just like at summer camp, each day Campers attend scheduled classes and then have 'free time' when they can try their hand at archery, go for a horseback ride, lounge by the pool, nap under the shade of a huge pine tree, and loads more"

Registration is still open and there are a few spots left! Check out some of the other speakers here- it's quite a line up!

I hope to see you there!

Echo Park Craft Fair

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to the Echo Park Craft Fair this past weekend! You all made it a smashing success. I was so busy, I was only able to snap a handful of photos. 

Thank you to all of the amazing women who contributed projects to my booth: Debra Baxter, Cheryl Cambras, Julie Cho, Claire Cottrell, Lili Cuzor, Emilie Halpern, Katie Hanburger, Hadley Holliday, Kate Miss, and Melanie Nakaue and Lauren Spencer King. I adore you all , and all that you do.

Of course, extra special thanks to my Mom, who helped out so much in the booth, and to Rachel Craven and Beatrice Valenzuela - the goddesses who created this amazing event, and work so hard each season to put on a fantastic fair. Thank you!

Today & Tomorrow...

Please join us!

I have been spending so much time at home lately, working on various projects. It's a simple thing, but I am in love with my yard.

 

I love getting my hair done at my friend Bea's house. She gives me advice on beauty, fashion, life! There is usually some yummy tea or snack offered. She allows me to pad around her home and snap photos while my hair color processes (I'm about 75% grey). If you are really lucky, her daughter Astrid will be there. I always leave Bea's place feeling beautiful, and more hopeful and energized. Thank you Bea!
