Redhead by Design

Heeeeyyy! It’s lil ol’ me on TV today! Thank you to Marcella Raymond Media and Roseanne Tellez for featuring me, Motsey Dotes Designs, sagestitchco and all the other awesome artisans at Red Hive Market this morning!

Swarm over to Red Hive Market in Batavia for artisanal excellence Red Hive Market features dozens of unique artisans and thousands of square feet of amazing merchandise.

I have 5 of these bad boys in my space at Red Hive Market for our Christmas in July event. Saturday is the last day for the event and the last day to redeem these Golden Ornaments for a rare discount! They are valid for ANY item in my space, not just Christmas pieces.

This is the first shop I ever rented space in and it’s amazing, as are its owners. Please donate if you can. We have to support small businesses as much as we can and to have someone do so much damage to their business and cost them $9,000 is unfathomable.

I’m goin’ in!

No, seriously. I got too cocky in my ability to jump off the dock and onto the float so I misjudged and fell back into the water. The good news is that the water feels great and I’m OK laughing at myself. 🤣

I’ve been quiet on social media this month because I’ve been in MN enjoying some time on the lake. I’ll be back in IL in a week or so, but in the meantime I’m out here representing ‘s beautiful work!

I have lost track of the amount of compliments I’ve received today on my awesome poncho! I’ve even had people shout across the street telling me they love it!

Give her a follow for more awesomeness in your feed! 💚💜💙

It may be raining, but the vibe is freaking awesome. There are amazing vendors and MUSIC happening right now in Morris, IL at Goold Park. We hope to see you soon!

If you’re heading out to FForest Fest today (and I hope you are) it’s a good idea to bring cash. Coverage is spotty out there so it’s helpful if you want to buy something from an artist to have a backup. Plus, if you want to buy alcohol, it’s cash only. There’s an atm, but comping prepared can save you some time in line, just in case.

And don’t let the forecast keep you away. Woodstock wouldn’t have been what it was without the rain. 😉

Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate! I hope your loved ones make you smile today. ❤️

I’ll be here again for the Spring! Firefly Market is my absolutely favorite market! Beautifully curated, great music and fantastic food trucks.

I am IN LOVE with this latest design! ❤️ I’m cutting some more of these hands now so I can offer them during my market season! I will also have one available at in Batavia and in Sycamore in the coming weeks!

Is this sun catcher something you’d want for your windows?

Decided on for lunch today and as usual, it did not disappoint. I almost didn’t want to eat this piece of grilled cheese art, but you know I did. This is a VERY new to the menu “We Be Jammin’” grilled cheese and it is spectacular.

Support local. It’s the best way to go.
