{MCMC FRAGRANCES site // MCMC FRAGRANCES the makers}

Have you seen "The Makers Project"? It's a beautifully curated set of photographs and interviews with makers, movers and shakers in Brooklyn NY. The photography, done by Jennifer Causey, is awe inspiring, and gives me a twinge of longing to be back in Brooklyn for a while.
Above are some of my favorites from the site.

{plant shopping}

Over the weekend I went to see Somewhere which finally made it to Portland, it was beautiful through and through. I also bought a plant! I killed my peppermint plant months ago and it's been looking pretty desolate in here since, hopefully this will liven things up a bit.

Check out the link to the Somewhere site above, it's full of clips, interviews, and photo stills.

The TOMS shoes event this weekend was AWESOME! Such a wonderful turnout, and tons of great requests. These are photos of a few of the TOMS I drew on. {metallic does not photograph, but those elephants are shimmery silver :) }

{the three pillows from the collection}

So I mentioned a while back a massive textile project I'd taken on. This is it! I'm so glad to finally be able to share it with you all. I named the collection W/heart {with heart}, it's composed of very limited edition eco-friendy homeware pieces. Each piece is hand printed by me with water based inks on locally bought 100% organic cotton.

TOMS shoes event in PDX

Very exciting news! This Saturday I'll be armed with paint pens and markers doing custom drawings on TOMS shoes at the Nordtrom in Lloyd Center (Portland, OR) from 1-4pm. You should stop by!

About TOMS: TOMS shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need, one for one.

Greeting Cards

I've posted some new items in the shop, including 2 greeting card designs. They're 4x5" on cotton paper.

Custom Illustrations

It seems a bit silly to already be designing holiday cards, but it's right around the corner. Last year I did a few custom illustration commissions for Christmas cards / prints which were tons of fun. Above is one of my favorites. If you're interested in having a custom illustration done, send me an email (bos.jacqueline@gmail.com)!
