New Brand Sneak Peek:
Prairie Haven
The newest brand in the WLL portfolio is a unique one! Prairie Haven is a quaint nudist camp in the heart of Kansas. It was established in 1972 and continues to be one of the top nudist camps in the midwest.
The PH brand combines vintage aesthetics with modern ideals such as body positivity and diversity. Prairie Haven is a safe and welcoming space for all, so their brand is built to reflect that with its bright but earthy color palette, vintage-inspired typography, and wood carving inspired illustrations.
This brand has been SO fun and cheeky to create. I love their ideals and values so much. Stay tuned for their brand new website, coming very soon! 🏕️🌻🍑
Client Highlight: The Refill Market
The Refill Market is a vegan bulk refillery located in Des Moines, Iowa. Their mission is to make high-quality, plant-based and low-waste foods accessible to the Des Moines community and bring people together through our passion for sustainability.
In honor of their grand opening later this year, I wanted to revisit their branding. One of my fave projects to date!
Meet Greta
Greta is my new power wheelchair! I’ve been wanting to get one for a while, and finally settled on a chair that is lightweight, compact, and somewhat stylish.
Making the decision to get a new mobility aid is never easy. This was a big step for me and and I went through a lot of mental blocks to get here.
While transitioning from walking to rolling presents lots of new challenges, I have enjoyed zipping around in Greta this past month. It’s safer and saves time and energy.
My Current Faves
Strawberry Rhubarb Compote
Strawberry rhubarb is definitely one of my favorite flavor combos. I got a few stalks of rhubarb at a farmers market and made a super simple homemade strawberry rhubarb compote! It was so good on bagels and toast.
