I didn’t get a chance to share Andrea Schroder’s New Luxe Noir Collection of candles and scents that I helped create packaging for before I went on maternity leave. Here’s a glimpse into the collection featuring warm, earthy, and bright fragrances.

There is a total of 8 different scents to choose from and honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of them. To view or purchase the entire collection, click here.
Here’s a glimpse into some new packaging design I’ve been working on for Andrea Schroder’s new Luxe Noir Collection.

I can’t wait to see the entire collection together, once all is said and done. Stay tuned!
As a promotional piece, All American Containers filled one of their amber glass bottles with Aromatherapy Lavender Essential Oils, as a giveaway to booth visitors at a recent trade show. Here is the label I designed for them. Inspired by a modern spa like feel we were still able to incorporate the triangle from their logo into the design.
Interested in creating a promotional piece for your next trade show or perhaps you’re in need of marketing collateral? Contact me for more info.
so much of our wedding that i have shared so far has been stationery related. however, today, i want to showcase something a little different. the jewelry and the amazing woman behind them, my best girlfriend and partner in crime, april kawaoka.
tee and i have known april for 15 years. she’s been there since the start of it all and we knew that she would be “the one” to create our wedding bands.
i always like to pick up a piece of jewelry when i travel as my little souvenir. when tee and i traveled to Costa Rica for the first time 10 years ago, i bought a sterling silver ring. i told april that it would be pretty cool if we could incorporate the design of my Costa Rica ring into my wedding band. so that was the inspiration behind my ring. the curve in the design lent itself real nicely to mold with the shape of my vintage engangement ring. it’s almost as if the two ring designs we’re made for each other.
tee was pretty excited when he knew that he could have april make pretty much anything for him in the form of a ring. only problem with that is, it left tee with endless possibilities! in the end, tee decided on a two tone brushed ring in the form of white and yellow gold, with a high polish look on the inside.
i think it’s rare that wedding bands can have as much meaning behind them as ours and to have someone that means so much to us hand make them, makes them priceless.
we also asked april to make our entire wedding party thank you gifts, which we presented to them at our rehearsal dinner.
bracelets for the ladies and tie clips for the gents.
each bracelet and tie clip was also hand stamped on the back side and personalized for each person.
for mine, we customized it a bit more by doing a gold chain with the sterling silver so that it would be a little different from the rest. i love that april uses such unique jewelry box packaging as well!
april will be at Unique L.A. May 9th & 10th. come by and visit her if you’re free. or if you prefer to shop at home, you can visit her Etsy shop.
p.s. may 10th is mother’s day so you can always swing by and pick up a piece of jewelry for the mamas in your life!

you know what’s pretty cool?
shopping on a sunday afternoon and as you stroll into the Nordstrom department store, you happen to pass by a product you helped develop packaging for.
i started working with Andrea Schroder about three months ago and one of the first big projects i had the pleasure of working on with her was the package development of her LOVE line, a lilac scent inspired series of lotions, soaps, candles, and room sprays.
you can find andrea’s beautiful line of products at Nordstrom stores and online at www.andreaschroder.com.
