Identity & Pattern Design

dutch+boots

stylish baby accessories that make life a little easier

Dutch+Boots is a mom & pop brand that aims to make parents’ lives a little easier through clever yet gorgeous design. In designing a logo for them, I discovered a quail represents protectiveness for children, harmony, and parental support. This mascot is perfect for the d+b mission to provide parents with safe, stylish products. After completing the logo design process and building out brand guidelines, I helped these entrepreneurs come up with their first batch of complimentary patterns for their reversible, modern bibs.

It’s been a bit since I’ve gotten to get out of the house and work in the studio. Excited to FINALLY start learning my windmill press with @swellpress classes next month (after housing it for an embarrassingly long time)! ✨

Happy holidays from our little fam! Here’s to a hopeful new year, full of vaccines and kinder words. ✨

Toasty toddler. I don’t know what season it is. The leaves say fall, the temperatures say “live under a blanket” until spring.

I know he’s my child because of that very furrowed brow. Pumpkins are serious, y’all.

Some portfolio updates are coming before the end of the year (because I’ve procrastinated on that for long enough) so some more design focused posts are coming down the pike. But for now, you’re stuck with this cutie. 🤗

Proof of life. I’m still here, still designing/working during every toddler nap and late into the night. This year is such a beat down, but I’ve been trying to make sure we have more positive days than negative. I find my fuse has been shorter the further into the year we go (like today, one tiny human had to be touching me 95% of his waking hours) and it’s something I’m hyper aware of and I know I can’t be alone in.

I’ve also learned I am not great at keeping friendships active over text or video calls and rely on in person-plans. Friends, please know I hope we can pick up where we left off when things are safer. We’ve cancelled or postponed so many trips, play dates, childcare plans, the list goes on. On the flip side, we’ve seen so many baby milestones together that I know one of us would have missed. Anyway. Just saying hi. Here’s some pumpkins.

Happy 1st Father’s Day to the guy who has made sure we’ve had a great breakfast every day since quarantine began. You’re the risk-taker in our family, and even though I give you this face a lot 😒 I’m glad you make us push our limits.
