SEP 4, 6 - 8pm: Join Me @ Sanctuary!!

Click on the image below to read about Sanctuary's Grand Opening Party!
I'll be there along with many great sponsors (including the bacardi mojito team - ah yeah!)

(they were sweet enough to choose an image with my work - the branchy mushroom tree - as the visual highlight for the event...thank you Hanna!)

My "Spotlight" is Born! And so is Sanctuary Home.Bath.Garden

Long time no see - let's play catch-up (super abridged version): new and exciting design concepts have sprouted in abundance along with an entirely new studio space and a revamped website!

{movin' + shakin' + as always - a work in progress}

Oh, it's just so good to be back...where to begin?
How about with some new designs available for purchase at one of the most charming and simply beautiful boutiques to grace Austin: Sanctuary Home.Bath.Garden. (www.sanctuaryhomebathgarden.com). Owner and overall delight, Hanna Curran, has poured her heart into her Sanctuary and it shows, so I'm thrilled to shine my first SPOTLIGHT on this amazing shop!

Introducing "Botanicals in a Bottle" - "perma-couture" inspired by the classic Ship in a Bottle...only the Botanicals easily hang on any wall and really light up any room:

LD Design @ PROTOTYPE on SoCo!! (still on SALE)

LD Design is excited to announce that Prototype, a Vintage Design Center (and Austin favorite) on South Congress, is now carrying an array of LD Design originals for available purchase! (And all designs are still on sale!!)
Last Thursday (12/6/07) was Prototype's 2nd year anniversary and they threw quite a shindig to celebrate. In keeping with their knack for impressing visitors, they unveiled their fresh line of LD Design arrangements expertly placed throughout the space. The designs received an enthusiastic welcome, and many pieces have already found new homes.
New designs will be available on an ongoing basis, so be sure to stop in and check out what's in store! Prototype is located at 1700 1/2 South Congress (at Milton) in the 78704 shopping district. They're open from 11am - 7pm everyday and you can call them at 512-44PROTO.

Prototype + LD Design = the Beginning of a Beautiful Friendship...
