CUSTOM PET PORTRAIT COMMISSIONS are officially OPEN! 🤗🐾🎨

last month, I painted a portrait of @stewieandsparkle (something I’ve been wanting to do for a bit, and I finally just went for it). 🙃 I then challenged myself to (secretly) paint a couple friends’ pets (a very hard secret to keep 😂) - to see if I enjoyed painting pets that weren’t mine and to see if it was something I wanted to continue doing. the process was really fun, and I really love how the finished pieces came out. 🥰 I figured.. why not start taking commissions?? 👀

I’ll be honest.. I’m kind of terrified to put this new work out there. 😅 but as scary as it is, I’m also really excited about this new creative venture 🥹

so with that said, I WOULD LOVE TO PAINT YOUR PETS! (dogs, cats, whatever you got) 🐶🐱🐰🐹🌈👩🏻‍🎨 link in bio for more info ~ spots are limited and commissions will close (temporarily) if/when they fill up ✨ by @amyventures

when the 2 chalant Chen cousins get together for ✨girl dinner and craft night✨

bleach printed leaves (and some flowers) onto these thrifted t-shirts with @jordanthechen this weekend 🤗 we stayed up til 1 am to finish them after a day in the city 🤪

the ultimate fall craft, and a fun way to up-cycle something old into something “new” with a handmade touch 🍂 (AI could never 🤡)

thanks @housefliphustle for the tutorial! 🥰

beautiful day for a quintessential fall adventure at @riamedefarm (finally!!) 🍂🎃🍎🥤🚜🐐🌻🎶

did you know that the apples here are eco-certified? they will taste better than any grocery store apple (ridden with chemicals, waxes, etc.) now picking: golden delicious and rome

say hi to the goats and other farm animals with @barnesyardpettingzoo and enjoy a sweet treat from the sweet shed after

live music, local brews, hayride, apple slingshot, pumpkin house, kids corn trail, pyo flowers & veggies, and more

pumpkin patch is also officially open! so grab some porch decor, stock up for soup season, or start planning your spooky pumpkin carving!

@babysallright was such a cool and cozy venue the other night for @blueyesmusic 💙 thank you for always creating a safe space for us to feel all the feelings and making music that makes us feel seen and held during our darkest hour(s) 🥹 & introducing us to your other talented friends like @mariellekraft (“the right people will love you” is a new favorite) 🫶

the silver lining was just barely catching the last bus out of the city back home to jersey 🥲 (iykyk 😅)

final days of the Snoopy in Style NYC exhibition

📍 25 Little West 12th St. (near @whitneymuseum & @chelseamarketny)
10 AM - 6 PM (went Wednesday around 3:45 and was inside by 4:30) ends tomorrow Saturday 9/26

⭐️ know before you go:
- a lot of the merch sold out, but what’s left is being sold at a discount! scored a couple of the larger sizes of the kids sweatshirt for $20 (originally $40), adult sweatshirts were marked down to $40 from $78
- @inciardi mini prints were still available, but it seemed like they were all the tennis themed ones from the ones I watched be pulled including my own
- exhibition furniture is for sale (!!!!!!)
- the exhibition itself is huge and well done; worth going to even if you don’t plan to buy anything or what you wanted sold out! no admission fee to enter

wedding week @thelilliehouse 🌼🤍🌾

a peek behind the scenes of floral arrangements being made in the days leading up to the big day (and some other bits of joy around the farm) 💐🐾 I helped create some of the bud vases and centerpieces for the reception tables, as well as the day of installation of the mossy meadow stage / dance floor 🎶

incredible to see it all come together yesterday in the event space 🥹 this was my first time assisting with floral design professionally, and it truly was the ultimate crash course. I have such respect and admiration for all the different teams coming together to set the stage for a magical evening (caterer, musicians, planner, etc.) ✨

@hollandridgefarms might just be the happiest place on earth 🤭🌻🍂🌾🌸

visit the farm this weekend (9/18-9/20) for extended golden hour hours (9:00 AM - 8:00 PM) and experience a sunset amongst the flowers 🥹

coming from NYC? catch the round trip @megabus that runs through Port Authority on Saturdays! 🚌 departs NYC at 9:30 AM and heads back to the city at 2:30 PM 🏙️ (*bus fare is separate from farm admission fee)

have you grabbed your tickets yet? 🎟️👀
