behind the scenes

we did a little exploring at the wedding site before the guests arrived. danny advised us to check out the old swimming hole and we were glad we did. of course we made friends with the sweet dog who lived there- who accompanied us on our exploring.

real wedding: danny and shaudi

we did a fun wedding yesterday at the ralston white retreat in mill valley. it is a really beautiful little spot nestled on the slope of mount tamalpais. danny and shaudi did a great job with all kinds of diy details- the centerpieces were in wine boxes with a burned in logo that danny designed. we used the bride's favorite little fillery flowers with kale in the arrangements. congratulations d and s- you were a dream to work with!

sweet wedding

we were so busy yesterday i sadly didn't have a chance to photograph the other pieces, but i did catch the two bouquets before they were picked up.

lookin' real real good

we had the shop in tip top shape yesterday for a photo shoot- maybe we'll tell you about it later. and it was also crazy busy with flowers going out and shoppers coming in; while working on a small wedding and a bigger wedding.

apartment therapy- garden party

we did a little interview with susie nadler about using seasonal flowers (she writes a garden column for apartment therapy and makes amazing arrangements at flora grubb). check it out- thanks susie!

we like it wild- the making of our shop!

this week's design*sponge post is a fun one- we showed the before and afters of our wee shop in san francisco! annabelle just re-arranged her jewelry case this week too and it looks awesome. photos by magpie & rye.

cold again

well- we had two days of heat in san francisco. today was back to the fog.

daily candy

magpie & rye and our shop are on daily candy today. yippee!

wood!

matt's new pieces are in the shop.

bbq and dogs on table

we put a tent and lights in the backyard for the summer. today is the first warm day we've had in a while. the dogs liked eating outside- the only bad part was that pee wee pooped right next to the table while we were eating. you can't win em' all.
