Being able to turn an old neglected cottage into our dream life size dollhouse is an experience I don’t think we’ll ever quite top. 

Uneven floors, settling walls, drafty old windows, & never ending unfinished projects included- this wee little house is and will always be my pride and joy 🤍

New lore just dropped 🥵 

I just can’t stay away from a DIY. The fact that we could probably just buy some cheap glass coasters but… then we don’t get to say we made them from a table we pulled out of the trash. And these are technically free 👀

⛓️THE GROMMET QUILT⛓️

Embarrassingly l planned this piece in COLLEGE (9 years ago) and even bought the materials.. and proceeded to move them through 2 countries, 2 states and 7 houses 😅 

Thankfully my idea played out just as nice as it has in my head for the last decade:) I love her. I want to make furniture and pillows and bags and everything with her. 

Will try to not take another decade to make the actual full size quilt!!! For now I gotta finish the bullet bra corset 🫡

a lil intro to my work flow/ life 🧵

My name is Keri and I started my home goods brand @softhomeco quite a few years ago. I leapt in to the world of outsourcing labor for my signature quilts after running another small biz with my husband, in which we made everything ourselves, and swore I’d never do it again. We felt trapped, there was no way to scale, we were ALWAYS “on”, and we were going broke. 

But alas, here I am, making everything myself after unexpectedly losing my dev and ad budget 😅 

Things are different now though. I’m not sure exactly what- it could be the access and community I’ve developed here in LA since moving last June, or maybe fully leaning in to my creative side and putting the business part of my brain on hold has given me more inner peace. Idk! I don’t really need to know. 

I’ve just listed my newest product on my website, the Sweet Dreams pillowcase, made from deadstock 90s and early y2k silk, with whimsical little ties (because I hate my pillow falling out of my silk pillowcases.. AND they’re cute), all handmade by yours truly in my home studio. 

I don’t know how this venture will morph as time passes and things change, but for now I’m saving up for a professional shoot on the quilt, and my deadstock PJ development here in LA! 

Day by day🪡
