The Pleated Peacock

was a week ago and I’m still going through pictures and memories, but I wanted to first say huuuuuge MAHALO to for this fantastic commission. I had so much fun recreating a few of his ceramics into miniature form! There were so many to choose from, it was hard not to make this helmet 20 lbs 🤣

As June winds to a close with another 🌈 month, let us mindfully continue to celebrate and support our friends, loved ones, and small businesses! I was honored to create this piece for a special person who wore it to their first parade. They asked for the trans flag colors, lots of ribbon and bows, lots of flowers, and Japanese influence. I think I nailed it!! I have so much respect for these parents who fostered a safe place for their child to be their authentic selves. This is why I love what I do. May we all be so loved ♥️💕🌈🌺🌼🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🥰

Lauren .ink and I are sad to announce we will NOT be vending at the Spring Outing 🌸 We have some pretty big life events and opportunities leading up to the expo weekend, and we’re unable to give our respective booths the proper time and dedication.

Much love to our Dapper Day family, and see you in the Fall!
