Hey guys! Over the last two weeks I have been busy in here! I was motivated by the @atlanticanticbrooklyn and the opportunity to show some pieces. These tops are one of a kind and made by my very own hands out of materials I found // found me. The materials are limited and there is only one of each 🫶🏻

The materials I have collected over my 7 years in New York. All antiques linens, vintage materials or beautiful fabrics like this pure silk sleeves and details.

The way it brings me joy means something. I’m following my gratitude. From sourcing, the collage aspect of creating a piece to stitching it together and then documenting. I love it all!!

Silk sleeves and tie closure left raw intentionally for ultimate weave appreciation.

MADE IN BROOKLYN, NYC

This is the first few from last week, documented by my kind friend @eirenach!

I have many more coming for the Antic this weekend ❣️🌸🦋🥹

Also big shout out to @photographergirlproductions for encouraging me and believing in me unwaveringly over the past few years- that’s the kind of love that is soil for dreams to grow out of 🥲🫶🏻

Labor Day! 234 days 👒 a lot of talk about what working class means. When I hear labor I think of giving birth. What other labor could exist without that one. The creation of life. What a gift. I feel like thanking my mom and all the women that create and support life. Nature is a mother too! 🫶🏻🌸🌙

Oh my momma, a Sheila in every way. It’d been over two years since we’d seen each other. Three and half since she’d visited me. It wasn’t lost on me how much I missed her but the effect of distance was very apparent in our dynamic but I couldn’t assign it to the distance until the gap was closed. Another hindsight is 20/20 moment. (Been having heaps of those!) The soul soothe of time with my maker. This is a vow we won’t go that long again. She’s only been gone 5 days and I miss her already❤️ I love you momma! taken in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, New York by @jacibaird

Today is 7 months 🫶🏻 213 days. Learning about myself, being able to retain what I learn. Watching myself not judging myself. I am my own science project, I’m the subject and the narrator. Learning where I end and the world begins. Skin/flesh is a good marker point, I stop where my skin is, everything beyond that is out of my control. I can put stuff on my body and in my body, I can put my body around people or in spaces. That’s up to me, beyond that is simply beyond that, beyond me; Not mine. The peace I have from understanding emotions are information & being honest with myself about what things mean to me. There’s been a few times lately where I feel unimaginable grief and I sit with it. I make it my teacher, I face it. I didn’t even realized how much I was running. Most days I wake up and realize I’m still a baby in this life, I have so much in front of me and I’m so damn lucky I get to be me in this life, this girl, in this body with this wicked sense of something that got me here despite it all. 🌬️💖🪷🦋 taken in Brooklyn, New York by @jacibaird

When inspiration strikes, we must seize it! Even if it’s a Saturday night 🪩Clutter control. It gets out of hand but watch how fast it disappears🥲 One thing about the pile method, you gotta stay on top of it or it’ll get on top of you- in anticipation of #Virgo season

A week of revelations. Illuminating in so many ways. The quiet beauty of accumulating a growing list of pain that I sat with instead of drank over. I’m becoming a deeper well. Things don’t slip through me the way they used to. Nothing is lost. Learning that acceptance isn’t just about letting go. It’s about being able to meet reality while leaving room for more to be revealed ✨ taken in Brooklyn, New York by @jacibaird

The woman who was finally beginning to trust her own voice.

The woman who learned that honesty wasn’t something to fear; it was the thing that set her free.

Keep choosing her.

She knows her way home.

The voice that says you’re not enough has had years of practice.
 The voice that knows your worth is only six months old. 
Be patient with her.

She’s telling the truth🍯🫶🏼🌻✨ taken in Jacob Riis Beach by @jacibaird

I woke up this morning to rain, that comforting pitter patter, the soothing spray of the cars kicking puddles. Now I’m sitting in the window crying tears of joy. When I was a kid it always made me feel uncomfortable on my birthday when people asked me if I felt different now that I’m a year older. I didn’t feel different. Mostly cause I didn’t know what I felt to begin with, how could I know if it was different?

This morning, I felt it. I feel different. This is my first birthday sober in 13 years. I woke up to so much love, I’ve been so lonely for so long it’s hard to know when it began. The last 171 days have been a coming home to myself, one of the greatest things I ever did for myself I did at 34. Grounded in gratitude 🦋✨🫶🏼

It’s July!! Here’s some Jaci in June. I’m turning 35 on Monday! I’ve ran into a few friends lately who had no idea I’m in real estate so I promised myself I’d mention it a few more times!

Jaclyn Baird is a Brooklyn-based artist and creative whose work explores storytelling, nature, memory, and the quiet poetry of everyday life. With a background spanning styling, creative direction, performance, vintage sourcing, and design, her practice is shaped by a curiosity for people, spaces, and the emotional resonance between them.

Having lived and worked between Montana, Los Angeles, Costa Rica, and New York City, Jaclyn creates from an instinctual and deeply observant place. She is guided by intuition, collaboration, and reverence for the natural world. Recently, she became licensed in New York real estate, an extension of her ongoing interest in spaces and the lives unfolding within them.

Father’s Day is one of those holidays that’s a little spikey. I hold it too tight and it hurts. It’s been 8.5 years since he passed. I wish I could tell you it’s easier now. Thank god I live in NYC where only once last week someone assumed I’m married. I can’t remember the last time someone assumed I was a mom. When I lived in Costa Rica it was refreshing if someone didn’t ask/ point out the fact I don’t have children in a single day. It seems more common to have children than to be married. I hold reverence for them both so much so that I’m only grateful I haven’t because that’s the only way to guarantee not messing that up. Who knows if that sentence ends in a yet. I’m not tied to an outcome. I don’t want to be tied to anything. For Father’s Day I celebrated 156 days of sobriety. That’s the best thing to have in common with my dad, the best lesson he taught me, he taught me by example. 15 years of living amends. My heart aches but at the same time it swells. I’m so grateful, I’m grateful, I’m so grateful 🌊💘 taken in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, New York by @jacibaird

Two things- 1. today is 5 months!!! (NYC is showing off this year- good time to be clear eyed) 2. I’m obsessed with Delilah. She’s the cat of my dreams. I got her in 2014 when I lived in Los Angeles. I was actually shopping for a bird the day @sofiaroselilly told me to come over and this little lady crawled into the nook of my neck and never looked back. She’s been everywhere with me and my only critique is cats need longer life spans.
