diy instagram magnets

Happy hump day, y'all! Here is a super easy DIY that only takes about 10 minutes to complete, and leaves you with some really fun, personalized magnets to use on your fridge, or wherever else you may need magnets. I made my magnets out of some of my favorite instagram photos, printed out using the Printic App. You can send them to print straight from your phone and then they come in the mail a few days later, printed on photo paper with a fun polaroid frame. You could use almost anything for your magnets, though, as long as the adhesive on the magnet sheets can stick on!

For this project you'll need:
Photos, or whatever you want to make into a magnet Scissors A pen Magnet adhesive paper (I found mine on Amazon)

1. Take one of your photos and lay it on the magnet adhesive paper. Hold it still and trace around the edges so that you know how big to cut your piece of magnet.
2. Cut along the line you drew and then lay the photo over the piece you just cut to make sure the piece isn't larger than the photo. You don't want to see the magnet, so you'll want to cut it slightly smaller than the photo. If you can see the magnet, go in and trim the edges of the magnet a bit until you can't see it when you lay the photo on top.
3. Remove the backing on the magnet to reveal the adhesive surface. Carefully line up your photo over the adhesive and then stick it down. You only have one shot to get this right because the adhesive is pretty sticky and it'd be difficult to pull it off and try again. If you didn't get it quite right, you can take your scissors and trim any excess magnet that is showing.
Done! The magnet is pretty decent, so you can even use the little magnets you made to hold up papers and such. I think it'd be fun to have a whole fridge covered in photos of friends and family and pretty little details. In a digital age where most of our photos are online or on our phones, it's nice to have tangible, physical photographs. One of my favorite things to do when I'm at other people's houses is look at the photos they have on their fridge.
I have a bunch of magnet paper left over so I'm brainstorming more fun magnet projects now!

life lately

It's been getting so cold lately, it seems like fall is almost already slipping away! Lots of trees are nearly naked, which is sad because this is my favorite time of year to take outfit photos! I've already brought out all my winter coats, scarves, and mittens and have been using them quite frequently. Taking Dusty on walks means bundling up these days. I went through my cookbooks last night looking for a dessert to make and found a bunch of really great pumpkin treats, so I might try to make some and share them here on the blog. It's not fall until you binge on pumpkin things.

Excited about: The climbing competition this weekend! I've never done a climbing competition before, but it seems like they're pretty fun, and the one that I'll be competing in is a black light competition! They turn off the lights and turn on black lights so all the holds turn neon, like so. I'm resting up this week so hopefully my muscles will be all healed up and ready to climb at the comp.

Annoyed with: Dealing with bureaucracies. We've been in a sea of signatures, forms, taxes, and inspectors these past couple weeks between all the different things going on in life, so it just feels like we're getting hit from every direction with more red tape. Thankfully the end is in sight, so we just have to hang out for a couple more weeks. I'm hoping the holiday season will be a time of renewal and relaxation. Thanksgiving is so close and I'm really excited to spend the weekend with my family!

Thankful for: Good news in the sea of stress. It's kind of felt like every email I get is just asking for more from me or piles on more stress, so getting an email with good news was so relieving and a bit rejuvenating. It's been one of those moments in life where you know that if you encounter someone just slightly mean or something little goes wrong you're just going to cry on the spot. I had to swiftly leave the DMV the other day to avoid crumbling into tears in front of the lady helping me.

Playing: a ton of Magic the Gathering! It's our guilty pleasure now. We'll play a couple games here and there. During breakfast, over dinner, in between errands... it's been a nice (and free!) way to hang out.

Getting into: Yoga a lot more lately. With all the stressful situations happening, yoga has been a wonderful respite. My climbing gym has a few yoga classes per week, and I've been trying to go to those consistently and I tried out a class at Samdhana Karana Yoga last night and enjoyed it quite a bit. I love that yoga simultaneously pushes my body and also lets it rest. It forces me to let go of whatever is happening in life outside the studio and only focus on strengthening and stretching myself.

Happy with: How well our home is coming along. I pretty much have our bedroom done now, which is a room I've been excited about working on, but needed to work on the more public areas of the house first. It's feeling pretty cozy and homey these days. I'm proud of the work we've done on the house in under a year!

Such an amazing artist. The control and finesse is just mindblowing.

So thrilled to partner with Wallsneedlove.com to create a wallpaper version of my handpainted herringbone wall!

RUN, IT'S A STAMPEDE!

Wise words from Bill Waterson. (and cute comic too)

Bring on the penises, HBO

I watched this documentary recently and it was wonderful and awful. Wonderful that people are working to dismantle the sexism that occurs in our culture and media outlets, but awful that we have to work to dismantle in the first place. It's on Netflix instant if you want to watch it!

For the next time you get a text inviting you out for drinks while you're at the gym. No need to head home to change!

A beautiful project. Touch is powerful, even if that's hard for someone like me to admit, as a non-touchy person.

i put a spell on you

One of my favorite events that was planned for us during St. Louis Fashion week was the thrifting adventures with Savers. Savers is one of my favorite thrift stores, but I've always known it as Value Village here in the PNW. We were treated to a treat table, a $25 gift certificate to Savers, and then let loose upon the store! Some of the ladies in the group weren't the thrifting sort, but I was like a kid in a candy store! I didn't really have an outfit planned for the next day's activities at Saks 5th Avenue and Neiman Marcus, so I decided to challenge myself to find my entire outfit that night at Savers... and I did! Everything I'm wearing in this outfit is from Savers except for a couple accessories. I was pretty proud of my thrifting skills, though I certainly got lucky. My shoes are Jessica Simpson and the dress is Express, so that worked out pretty well! I felt like a bit of a rogue going to places like Saks and Neiman wearing and outfit that only cost me 25 bucks. A lady even came up to Julie and I and told us that we had the best outfits out of the whole fashion crowd, and both of us were wearing thrifted and vintage! Take that high fashion! Thrifting FTW! It was pretty fun to get to thrift alongside ladies like Julie, Tieka, and Keiko. I always admire ladies who can seamlessly mix thrifted or vintage items right alongside investment pieces or designer items.

dress + belt + shoes + necklaces / thrifted at savers :: bracelet/courtesy of musana jewelry quartz necklace/courtesy of adorn by sarah lewis :: photos taken by Julie This outfit is a little bit Free People witchy, which seems appropriate for Halloween. My default halloween costume is a witch, probably just because I own a witch hat and have a lot of black clothes and dark hair. I usually like to source halloween costumes from my own closet, and it's not too difficult since a lot of my clothes lend themselves to a more costume-y use. One year I was out of town for halloween and threw together a cat costume by using the leg of some black tights as a tail and made little ears out of my hair and then I think I just wore black. I'm not into the elaborate or "slutty XYZ" costumes. I find it much more fun to see what I can come up with out of things I already have. Of course, I also never have been to a huge halloween costume where there's a lot of pressure to have an awesome costume. All of the halloween parties I've ever been too have been super laid back, though I think it'd be really fun to go to a big halloween party where everyone goes all out! I love dressing up in costumes, so halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I mean, I enjoy putting together fun outfits for daily life, so halloween is just a crazy version of that!

treats, tresses, and trashy tv!

This past Sunday I had a few friends over to my house for a fun little fall "hairspiration" get together! I partnered with

Vidal Sassoon Pro Series

and Target to try out some fun hair products, while enjoying a bunch of tasty fall inspired treats, wine, and some silly fall television. It was a perfect opportunity to bring back one of my favorite dessert recipes from last year,

pumpkin cupcakes with maple cream cheese frosting

! This time I made them in a mini cupcake version, much more bite-size friendly. I also wanted to make a new treat, and since I've been having a good run of macarons, I made some

french

macarons

filled with

pumpkin ganache

! It was my first time making ganache and it was SO delicious. Wine was also an obvious requirement. I was thinking of making some hot buttered rum, but then I realized I only had 151, which seemed a bit intense for a mellow drink like hot buttered rum. Still, hot buttered rum is the perfect fall party libation, so I might have to have a hot buttered rum party just as an excuse to make a big batch.

We ended up watching America's Next Top model for some fun trashy TV. I haven't watched ANTM in years, and it was an interesting change to see the guys vs. girls version, though ANTM has certainly passed it's glory days. Sorry, Tyra. Still it was a great show to watch while playing a fall trend bingo game. Models be trendy. Or at least, fashion shoots are. I had some cute prizes for the bingo winner and runner up, so the trashy TV was worth it. After the show we got our fancy hairs on, and we were going to head out for a girls night on the town, since we were lookin' fancy, but opted for finishing off the wine at the house instead.

Moorea gave me a super fancy 5-way heidi braids, which was really fun. I'm rather bad at doing french braids, so it's always great when someone else does it for me. I'm getting better at french braiding but it's still not that great looking. Since I can't really do that hairstyle on myself, I decided to make a little tutorial for a hairstyle for which I've been getting some requests! My hair is finally long enough to throw into a messy bun and I've been wearing it up a lot more these past couple months.

textures of fall

I'm pretty excited that fall leaves have been showing up lately. Dan and I really wanted to plant a couple trees in our front yard so we'd have our very own fall trees, but it wasn't in the cards this year. Hopefully next year we'll get some trees in the ground so our fall yard will be pretty and colorful. Of course, that means more chores: raking leaves. Still, I think the fall colors are worth it and I find raking to be somewhat cathartic.
For me fall is all about plaid, flannel, and wool. Coziness: activate! When I saw these boots with the wool fabric, I was immediately sold. Most of my boots have started the slow process of falling apart, so I'm glad to have a new pair. Walking around rainy Tacoma with boots that are falling apart means wet feet. Not my favorite. I might try to take a couple of them to get them repaired, but some are just going to have to be retired eventually. Or only worn on dry days.

Life has been a little bit crazy the past week. Our sewer line broke, or rather disintegrated, so we've been dealing with that on top of a bunch of other "grown up" things. I feel like life should be lived backwards so you can appreciate the carefree lifestyle of childhood. When you're a kid you just don't realize how awesome you've got it. No rent, no bills, no taxes, just people making you food and letting you play all the time and you get to go to school and hang out with friends... the grass is always greener I suppose. Still, even though adulthood comes with an obnoxious amount of responsibilities, going back to being a kid would probably get old after having tasted the freedom of adulthood. Also, I'd rather not revisit high school and hormones and that nonsense. Sorry, John Mellencamp, but I'd rather not hold on to 16 as long as I can.
This morning Dan and I went out for a coffee and bagels with cream cheese date for breakfast and sat outside with the crisp fall air. It's that time when it's crisp outside, but not too frigid to be outdoors. A steamy cup of coffee also helps. Simple little dates like coffee and bagels are wonderful. Some times I like getting fancy, but I'd rather spend a few dollars here and there on little dates rather than go out for an expensive fancy date. And, really, I think I'd much rather stay in and drink fancy wine and cook steak than go out and pay quadruple the amount for the same meal. Cooking in the kitchen together is one of our favorite things to do. Dan's been getting quite good at cooking these days, which makes it even more enjoyable!

Women's Work Wayzgoose 2026 Steamroller Print

$350.00

Lino relief print created during the 2026 Wayzgoose Steamroller Print event in Tacoma. Each print was pressed using a 1.5 ton steamroller. See the entire process here!

The Wayzgoose theme this year was Tacoma Works, a celebration of the labor history of Tacoma, labor solidarity, Tacoma industry, and what work in Tacoma looks like.

As I thought about the theme, I realized I wanted to highlight the unpaid labor that women do, all the work that doesn't get acknowledged as “real work" and goes uncompensated but quietly forms the backbone of society. Care work, cooking and cleaning, household management, pregnancy and child rearing, carrying the emotional and mental load, etc.

I wanted to use the imagery of a quilt because this devaluing of "women's work" has extended into the art world by deeming mediums historically associated with women as merely "craft" - lots of fiber art, quilting, embroidery: highly skilled and artistically incredible work that wasn't considered "fine art."

Women's work is the thread that stitches everything together. It's the thread that goes unnoticed and under appreciated, but without it, everything would fall apart.

When I say “women’s work” I don’t mean that only women engage in these types of work, but historically these types of unpaid labor have fallen vastly upon women. I also don’t mean that women don’t or haven’t engaged in paid labor and industry throughout Tacoma’s history, they obviously have. To me, “women’s work” is the phrase that embodies how we devalue certain types of labor typically associated with women, and can extend into forms of paid labor— why is it that teachers are so underpaid in our society? Could it have anything to do with teaching having been a workforce of primarily women historically?

So when we talk about women’s work we’re talking about things like care work, elder care, feeding a family, procuring groceries, household management, keeping a home clean and stocked, rearing children, pregnancy, birthing and breastfeeding, emotional labor, mental load, community building and organizing. Without these forms of “women’s work” our society would unravel.

Women's work is work. The labor and industry history in Tacoma could not have happened without the women in the background supporting it all with the work they did that wasn't considered real work.

Tacoma Works because Women Work.

Flock Together Relief Print

Hand-pressed original linoleum block print.

On the last day of my artist residency in Sitka, my kiddo’s homesickness hit its peak. We’d been away from home for almost a month and they didn’t want me to leave that morning to go to the museum. So I invited them to come with me and told them I’d draw them a goose— sometimes I call them “goose” which I think was initially a shortening of “silly goose” but now I just use Goose.

This print came out of that drawing. Two hugging geese— mom and child, lovers, friends. For me, this is a depiction of me and Jack, but for you? Who is your goose who needs a hug that feels like home?

This print was inspired by a dream I had shortly before leaving for Sitka. In the dream I swam all the way from Tacoma to Sitka, then upon arriving in Sitka I was out on a spit of land across the water from town and a huge tsunami wave tossed me into the sea. I was tumbling underwater, the ocean was opaque from the wave kicking up silt, and I realized I couldn’t tell up from down to find the surface and was going to drown, alone beneath the waves. I woke up in a start— it was one of those almost-too-real dreams that had you wake with your heart racing. Later that day I was ruminating on the dream and realized that while I felt alone underwater because I couldn’t see anything, I wasn’t actually alone. I was surrounded by kin: Salmon guiding me to the headwaters of a stream, kelp growing towards upwards to guide me to the surface, seals who could pull me along.

I spent the first week of my residency carving the linoleum, then we got our steamroller rental delivered and printed! The steamroller was a little smaller than the ones we use for Wayzgoose so I wasn’t sure if it would be heavy enough, but it worked perfectly and we ended up with nine prints. So many people came out to watch and it was such a blast getting to do another steamroller print!

What is a giclée print?

Giclée printing (pronounced zhee-clay) is a type of inkjet printing, but not all inkjet prints are giclée prints. The intention of giclée printing is to produce a product at a higher quality and with a longer lifespan than a standard desktop inkjet printer. For a giclée print, the paper must be of archival quality. The biggest difference between a standard inkjet print and a giclee print is that giclées are printed using pigment-based inks rather than dye-based inks that are found in lower-cost inkjets. Pigment-based inks have a longer lifespan: they can last anywhere from 100 - 200 years without significant fading.

ORIGINAL You'll Like Tacoma Wayzgoose 2025 Steamroller Print

$300.00

Lino relief print created during the 2025 Wayzgoose Steamroller Print event in Tacoma. Each print was pressed using a 1.5 ton steamroller. See the entire process here!

The Wayzgoose theme this year was Make Some Noise, a celebration of the music of Tacoma, bands from Tacoma, songs about Tacoma, and music venues in Tacoma. It was so fun seeing all the different interpretations of the theme. Here’s mine:

“Where’s that confounded bridge?” Led Zeppelin’s The Crunge’s final lyrics ask. What is a song’s bridge? A musical change of pace, intended to provide contrast to the rest of the composition. Here in the Northwest we’re the bridge. We’re not the fancy metropolitan city of Seattle, we’re not a densely wooded small town or coastal hamlet, and we aren’t rolling fields of agricultural land. We’re something different. Something gritty and creative. We’ve got a little bit of funk to us, and I’m not just talking about the aroma. We strut to the beat of our own rhythm. Blue collar, grunge, and art all steeped together under the watchful eye of our namesake peak.

And then there’s the bridge, or should I say bridges. We’re perched on our peninsula jutting out into the Puget sound, anchored on west and east by bridges— Tacoma Narrows, Murray Morgan, and the E 21st St bridge.

In this piece I wanted to share a poem about the music of Tacoma, it’s people, it’s land, the interweaving of everything we hear when we close our eyes in the middle of the city. Tacoma has birthed many amazing artists, some nationally known, like Neko Case, some with cult Tacoma followings, like Girl Trouble— but I like to think we are all a part of the song of Tacoma, being sung throughout the ages as we build our lives between bridges in this little gritty city, “a dusty old jewel on the south Puget Sound.”

ORIGINAL Home Sweet Tacoma Wayzgoose 2024 Steamroller Print

from $275.00

Lino relief prints created during the 2024 Wayzgoose Steamroller Print event in Tacoma. Each print was pressed using a 1.5 ton steamroller. See the entire process here!

The Wayzgoose theme this year was Sweet and Salty. There are so many ways in which Tacoma is both Sweet and Salty. Her people are the salt of the earth. She's nestled within the salty waters of the Puget Sound. Folks here feel a little salty about Tacoma changing— "Keep Tacoma Feared" is the refrain to maintain a Tacoma that’s an underdog, a sweet secret that only her residents could truly appreciate.

For those of us who call Tacoma "home," it's a sweet place filled with a vibrant creative community, balanced against the contrast of a salt-of-the-earth blue collar community often symbolized by our bustling seaport.

That's what this piece represents. Gritty Tacoma, sweet and salty, arts and labor, a little rough around the edges, but a sweet treasure we call home.
