When my brother was in town last week, he could hardly believe the incredible colors of Fall in Virginia. Of course, it was not all sight seeing and leisure – we had to put him to work. Here he is modeling this gorgeous rice paper butterfly. This beauty was one of the first to sell at our market last weekend, so his hard work paid off.

We have also been hard at work this fall designing new lighting, including this hourglass-inspired number. I got to get in on the modeling action this time, prompting Ben to say and then retract, something like, “Dang, it must be strong”.
