In light of recent discriminatory legislation I’ve decided to make my beautiful Hijri perpetual calendar free. That’s right, it’s free now. You can download it here. Make them for all your Muslim friends and neighbors. Never again.

Simple DIY Felt Party Hats
I love felt. It’s just so soft and purrrdy, and it comes in delicious colors. It’s also cheap enough that I always seem to have a little stash of it stockpiled. So when we decided at the very last minute to host a little 5th birthday celebration for my son (six months after his actual […]

Free Harry Potter Party Game!
Apparently May 4th is a day to geek out about Star Wars. I’m not a Star Wars superfan but I AM a Harry Potter superfan, so I decided to share some free HP fan art printables with you today. Harry Potter is actually the reason I started creating digital designs. Many years back in a […]
An Unhurried Mother’s Day
Ah, Mother’s Day. Local artisinal pastries for breakfast, fresh-brewed coffee from the roastery down the street, wildflowers hand picked by the wee ones on their morning walk, and a happy mama curled up in a cozy sun-drenched armchair. BAHAHAHAHAHA! Just kidding. (If this is what your Mother’s Day looks like, please, teach me. But I’m […]
Dreaming of an Old Fashioned Summer
We’re still having winter weather here in Chicagoland, so of course I’m dreaming of summer and all of the warm joys that come with it. I made this Field Guide to an Old Fashioned Summer last year, and it’s still one of my favorite visual bucket lists for children. We made our first visual summer […]
A Curious Spring (Free Printable!)

If you’re on TpT, I would LOVE it if you’d follow my store! And if you download the seder plate, please consider leaving a review. I’ve included two versions, […]
The Jewish Year
My favorite things to design are visual calendars. I may never be able to stop time, or slow it down, but I can track it as it flies by. Our society’s rhythms are based off of the secular and Christian year, with winter break being akin to Christmas break, and Jewish children in public schools […]
Experiences As Gifts
We need more stuff in our house like a hotdog needs ketchup. Which is to say: Not at all. Nope. Never. But I’m not going to pretend that my five year old is some unicorn child who is happy receiving only experiences for Hanukkah. Because this child has definitely caught on to the whole gift […]
