The moment you’ve all been waiting for is finally here!!! I’m so excited to announce that Emily Johnson Design Co. is officially launched! • I’ve been working super hard over the past few weeks to get my site up and running, my workflow in order and get this business going!! • Head to the link in my profile to check out the website and if you need branding, a website, or graphics for any of your upcoming projects hit me up cuz I’m yo girl! 🙋🏼‍♀️
I might have to start making these baby blankets in grown up size. It’s the perfect weight and the colours are just👌🏼
I don’t even think it’s possible to make an anniversary post not sounds like the cheesiest thing to ever be written. So 💁🏼‍♀️ Thankful for this fella who makes me laugh, takes me on adventures, and has helped me branch out beyond peanut butter and jam sandwiches. Luh yew 😘
All done! Now on to the next! I don’t typically knit much in the spring/summer because wool is heavy and hot but this light weight cotton has me rethinking my no-knit summers..
It’s been just over a week since my little old Vera left the driveway. I definitely miss her and all her little quirks but I’m so happy that she’s making life a little easier for a local family. I’m also super grateful for my new car, who I have lovingly named Otis! ⠀ •⠀ Do you name your cars? If you do, how do you come up with the name?
This is where I’ll be today - working on projects and updating my website. Feel free to bring by a coffee whenever works for your schedule 😉
Why have only 3 projects on the go when you can have a million? Here’s a preview of a baby blanket I’m making to donate to Peace Arch Hospital who will pass it along to a mother and baby in need. It won’t be ready in time for Mother’s Day but one day I hope it makes a new mom and her baby feel extra special and cozy 💛
The product of yesterday’s patience - sunsets and squiggles
This outside in the sun 🙌🏼
I don’t know what happened to this post from earlier but here it is again 🤷🏼‍♀️ My favourite natural/low toxicity/organic skin care products are up on the blog today! I wrote a bit about why I switched up my routine and about how much I loooove all these products!
Today marks the 5 year anniversary of the clothing factory collapse in Bangladesh that killed over 1100 workers. • I’ve been making an effort this past year to shop as ethically and sustainably as possible. It’s been hard being a student with no job or income but I’ve been thrifting and consigning in an effort to vote with my dollars (or lack thereof) to end fast fashion. I’ve also tried my own hand at making clothes (waaaay harder than I thought it would be). • I just wanted to bring the #fashionrevolution to your attention. If you can’t afford the 100% ethical/sustainable clothes you can still thrift, consign and, if you’re feeling extra crafty, make your own clothes! If nothing else, just make educated decisions ✌🏼
The hammer. An essential part of most DIY projects. Including soap making.
