Yesterday, we spent a gorgeous day vending at a local sunflower festival. There were corn mazes, games, live music, and delicious food! (And some pretty great photo opportunities, hehe)
Despite my wanting to cling onto summer, autumn and its traditions have arrived.
What's your favorite seasonal tradition this time of year?
Today, it's rainy - the perfect day for staying inside, drinking tea, and napping. When the sun-drenched sweetness of summer gives way to the gentle lull of falling leaves and earlier sunsets, we get cozy.
I wanted to take a moment today to reflect on the theme of this collection. Cat shows are the "scene" but the spirit of the campaign is celebration and encouragement.
I'm a big fan of celebrating achievements, no matter how small. Sometimes our best is putting on pants. Other times it might be showing up for those that need us. It might be being scared of something and doing it anyway. It might be doing the dishes.
What achievement would you like to celebrate with us?
No matter what it is today, I would love to hear it!

Today, I think I'd like to celebrate taking some time for myself.
It's really warm today, probably one of the last really nice beach days of the year. I didn't go to the ocean, but I went to a park by a river that had sandy beaches on the riverbanks. I'd never been there before.
I wasn't feeling the greatest, but I made myself some snacks and drove over there. I found a little spot and listened to music, read a little bit, and generally stared off into the distance.
Taking time like that is fun to dream about but not always easy to do. But, I did it, and I'm glad I did.
If you want a FREE "Cat Out" mini pin, now is your chance!
AND... We unlocked FOUR designs yesterday. We're down to the final pair of designs to unlock: Boundaries are Beautiful and Shrimply the Best.
The rumors are true, Boundaries is designed after none other than GC BWR NW Princess Donut the Queen Anne Chonk. https://youtube.com/shorts/4krrWCQzjV8?is=27Q22qMwTEW9P-7f
We're less than $400 away from funding the entire set, then we'll be looking at ✨trophy pins!✨
