Now Available: Caribou Tea Towel

I am so excited to show these new tea towels to you! They are oversized, flour sack tea towels, featuring a gorgeous caribou illustration.
I’ve always wanted to have products that were a little more sophisticated than my usual fare, and I feel like these tea towels would be the perfect gift or stocking stuffer this holiday season.
They arrive folded and packaged. I hope that you really love them! They are limited edition, so get them while you can!

Gingiber is Growing!

Hi friends! If you follow me on Instagram (user name gingiber) or on Facebook then you may have seen that I’ve hired a part time employee!

Kaitlyn has already proven herself to be an invaluable part of the Gingiber team, filling orders, packaging, and doing all of the little things that make Gingiber run so that I can focus more on the creative/business side of business.

Gingiber has been steadily growing, adding new retailers monthly and seeing continued online sales. I have been running this business alone since we launched several years ago, but recently the late nights and constant demand was getting to me.

So I knew with a busy holiday season approaching, it was time to get some help.
And none of this would be possible without you, my friends and customers, who have shown love and kindness towards my business.
Sometimes I sit at my desk and remember, “Wow, I am really doing this! I am a full-time artist!”
Thank you for letting me live my dream.

Christmas Stockings are BACK!

I am so excited that the Gingiber hand screen-printed, handmade stockings are ready for the holiday season!
And this year, they are completely reversible! Available with 2 options for lining fabric (a lovely crosshatched pattern and a seasonal green and brown leaf motif) these stockings will add the perfect touch of whimsy to your mantel.
 
I’ve also found a few pink stockings from 2 seasons ago. They are listed in the shop and supplies are very limited.
Hope that you love them,
Stacie

Shop Love: Depeapa

I first saw one of Depeapa’s tea towel sets on Pinterest and fell in love. I adore the illustration style, easy and expressive. 

The artist Veronica de Arriba is based out of Spain Here’s a link to her blog (you may need to use google translate) but I have been browsing it from time to time. I love seeing the day to day life of artists I admire.

I also love her other items, like brooches and pocket mirrors. I like that her products are diverse. Like I could purchase sooo many presents for people from this shop!

Geometric Mountain Backpack

You need to check out Depeapa for yourself. It is just great. Great products. Great photography. The. Bomb. Dot. Com. (yes, I did just write that).

Recent Show at Shindig Paperie

Hi! I am not very good at writing about the day to day portions of my life. So I thought I would write about a show I had last Thursday at Shindig Paperie, here in Fayetteville, AR. Artist Natalie Freeman and I were invited to be featured artists at Shindig, coinciding with the First Thrusday Art Walk. 
Natalie and I both showed up wearing adorable red frocks (it was not planned but we looked mighty fine), and many of our friends came out to enjoy cupcakes, champagne with lavender simple syrup, and an evening of merry making.
I was so excited to meet so many people who had seen my work online, and introduce myself to many new faces. And, the girls who run Shindig are amazingly kind and generous.

So happy to have been a part of the evening. Little moments like these make me feel more connected to the community and happy to call NWA home 🙂

And Now For Something Completely Different: Antler Animals

Okay, these aren’t completely different from my existing body of work, but they are a bit more sophisticated with their stark color pallet. Each antlered animal has a different pattern illustrated on their bodies. A bit hard to see in the initial photos, but here are the close ups:
I especially love the Caribou (they are like reindeer) because the diamond motif reminds me of snow falling on his back.
I decided to have a small run of square tea towels produced with the Caribou illustration. They should be available later this month. Even if no one else likes them and I end up giving them all away as Christmas presents, I really love the design.
Blank note cards will also be available of these illustrations. 
I truly wanted something that felt a little more “grown-up”. I started sketching these over the summer when I stayed the week at a cabin in Branson, MO. Glad that I pulled out these unfinished illustrations and gave them some life.
Thanks for reading,
Stacie

Today In The Studio

Ah, who doesn’t enjoy a graining iPhone preview of new illustrations? Working on a new series of illustrations. I really really like them. They seem a little more sophisticated than some of my other pieces.
Have an amazing evening. My kids are asleep and I have the night to sketch 🙂
