Lennox Convertible Crib and the Dawson Dresser + Changing Station because of how well they fit in with the rest of our house (which features mid-century pieces paired with more modern hardware and ceramics) and how well they complement each other.

"I also love the quiet and sophisticated nature of Nadi's new Woodland Quilt. The neutral colors complement the ever-changing art and books in her room.

Because of the pandemic, I’ve had no childcare and it’s been difficult managing parenthood, work, household responsibilities...the same way it has been for everyone.

For the sake of every parent, I hope the pandemic will help catapult some serious changes in this country’s childcare philosophy."

"Since Nadi was born, I’ve given myself the freedom to post whatever I like, however often I like—which is not that often. Like many artists, I’ve had a tumultuous relationship with social media and am trying to change that, especially because of the personal nature of my work. I only share what I want to and I no longer require myself to answer comments or DMs. If someone wants to truly get in touch with me, they can send me an email. These changes sound small, but they have given me back an enormous sense of freedom and relief."
