As many of you know I have been on maternity leave from Label Brand the last month and a half. The act of having my child, Nico was amazing and afterward I wrote it as a record of how he came in to the world. Our friend over at Design Mom has been posting Birth Stories over the past year and today our story was posted. If you care to, you can read about Nico’s coming to the world, at the following link: Design Mom posts Birth Stories

As of this week we are back in action at Label Brand with Nico in tow!

I am turned on in a big way.. this week we had the first glimpse of color in the in the garden.

What kind of spread will we get from the tomatoes this year? My mind has begun to run wild.

Now that we’ve entered the world of parenthood we are noticing families everywhere. It is fascinating to see how children resemble their parents isn’t it?

This spring we did a family shoot and here are a couple favorites, below.

And now our very first step in to product design – Cookmarks. Cookmarks are silicon topped bookmarks designed especially for use in the kitchen. They are extra large on top so they easily open pages, avoiding messy fingerprints on your favorite cookbook, are color coded for situations when you have more than one recipe going at once and they are easy to wipe down after use.

Cookmarks are a Label Brand and Trident Design LLC joint venture. And they were just featured in the July issue of Clean Eating! Super excited about it! And you can purchase you’re very own set for some favorite home chef at this link.

a big 5 OH(my) fotobooth

Sommer — Sun, 30 May 2010 13:05:58 +0000

I wanted to share this fotobooth where little colored papers were folded to create a backdrop and where guests wrote a wish for the Birthday Boy. And sometimes that’s all it takes; a well placed fotobooth will get em every time.
Can you tell that this one was particularly out of control in a perfectly wonderful way? See below and more on Flickr.
