UP, UP AND AWAY

Here is a photo shoot of our freshest batch of chicken footstools. We spend so many hours fashioning each one that we grow to love them through the process, so shipping time is oddly significant! We hope they bring their new owners much joy. As long as the UPS man remembers to come by the farm they fly away today...

FALL LOVE

We had a wonderful experience designing wedding invitations for an old family friend. She is gorgeous, the wedding was gorgeous and we think the invitations turned out rather nicely! We also printed rehearsal dinner invitations for their celebration. May God bless and keep them from everlasting to everlasting!

THANK YOU, ST. LOUIS!


Last weekend we enjoyed our outing with the Chicken Footstools at the St. Louis Art Fair. We were surrounded by super-talented artists, old friends, new friends, cute chicken-riding kiddos and people who light up at the opportunity to share their chicken stories. Once again we were struck by the deep reaction from people of every shape, size, color, outfit, piercing or not. Francois Lalanne summed it up well when he said, "Everyone can recognize animals throughout the world. You don't have to explain what they are or mean." 


The idea is simple, but the delight is significant. We hope our work brings awareness of the extraordinary in the ordinary.


Thank you SLAF and thanks to everyone who came out to the show! It was our pleasure to meet you.
