Meet the Creative: Out of Twig.

Thursday, July 24, 2014

Welcome to our third installment of the Meet the Creative series. We hope these short question/answer posts help you get to know each of are talented contributors on a more personal level.  

Brand/Company:
Out of Twig

Tell us about your creative background.
I received my degree in Visual Communication Arts, with an emphasis on graphic design and studio art. I have also had a passion for photography since before attaining my degree, and still very much enjoy it. Mixing photography, graphic design, and styling (fashion) has been very rewarding for me.

How did you end up doing what you do now?
The idea for Out of Twig began when I was thrift-shopping for some outfits to use in styling photo shoots. I really enjoy going to estate sales and antique shops anyway, once I began looking for these items I quickly gathered a collection of vintage dresses, shoes, and more. I decided to take pictures of the items and then sell them online. Eventually I graduated to having a store-front for nearly a year.  I was open 3 days a week and people could come shop. It was a lot of fun! Now, I am excited to work with Pastiche at Main, where items I find are available for purchase! It's such a lovely downtown store and I'm very happy to share their space!

Lynchburg Summer Bucket LIst

Friday, July 18, 2014

So Summer is more than half way over and we are gradually working through our bucket list of local favorites.



Dinner downtown at some of our favorite restaurants.



Spoils from yesterday's trip to the Community Market. I love the market but taking the kids on Saturday can be a bit overwhelming. My solution is visiting on Wednesday. Still a lot of vendors but the crowds are much smaller making it easier to find parking  and handle the stroller.



Still on our list are visiting the LOVE sign, a second trip to the fountain down town, a workshop at Pastiche and redecorating our basement. (Can't stop thinking about the desk by Regeneration for my new office corner).

What's on your Lynchburg Summer Bucket list?
