The unseasonably warm temperatures have accelerated the cherry blossoms – peak bloom will most likely occur between March 18th and 23rd! Enjoy the cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin in style with my hot pink bamboo pendant or my recycled sterling silver cherry blossom jewelry! Find them today at The Library of Congress gift shop.

If you love Asian art, make sure you visit the Freer and Sackler today or tomorrow before the Freer closes for renovations (http://www.asia.si.edu/future/)! I’m sad that it will be closing briefly, but excited about the renovated Freer! Such an inspiring place for an artist like me! So I’m rounding up a few of my favs, and posting them on Instagram today and tomorrow.

It’s time for my annual calendar! In honor of the 2016 Pantone colors of the year (rose quartz and serenity), this calendar is sure to offer a reminder of calm and balance in your office or home. It is available in 2 options (PDF and PNG) and is scaled to fit on letter size paper (if you wish to print). Hope you enjoy it – happy holidays and THANK YOU for another amazing year!
“Joined together Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.” – Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute
