yay! our first pumpkin spice lattes of the season! this is how we have mark the start of Autumn. it was a little bit chilly this morning and we were celebrating our first big Fall update at rva is finished and Jeremy just finished recording a full length album for another band!
another thing we are really enjoying is a new album from David Bazan. It's called "Curse Your Branches" and it's wonderful. i love his songs. i can literally listen to them 100 times and still be in love.
(he has the same green shoes as Jeremy in this photo.)
and a few more photos of my loft updates. added this handmade felt leaf garland in my kitchen (it was on my bed frame last year).
(these small things make me very happy.)
if you haven't checked out our new update yet, check the post below.
XOXO. happy Friday! els
I love david bazan with my whole heart.

i've been following you for years now and consider you to be my creative hero. I was just wondering how you guys decided to call yourselves "red velvet art" where'd the name stem from? I think about it all the time.

alright, i am going to sound like a very cliche, overreactive, fan, but i do love all of your artwork and your shop :)

Aww I really wanted pumpkin spice yesterday...but I got shot down! They said they couldn't sell it until Sept 1.
I'm glad you had better luck than I did :) I love your leaf garland.

Enjoy your start of "autumn" it is still 100 degrees here in Dallas so "autumn or Fall" will not start here until near Thanksgiving - bummer!

You're soooo lucky!! None of the stores in CO will release the Pumpkin Spice Latte until Sept 1st. They said that is the way it's supposed to be across the US. Enjoy!! I'll be waiting another 2 days :(
