Salli Swindell and her brother Nate Padavick are studio partners under the umbrella of Studio SSS. Salli lives in Hudson, Ohio, and Nate lives in North Adams, Massachusetts (for now, anyway; he likes to move around). They are the founders of They Draw & Cook and They Draw & Travel, the largest online collection of illustrated recipes and maps. Although they live states apart, they keep their business running through bouts of over-caffeinated video chats, phone calls, family vacations, and e-mails. They describe their sites as one big international party, with new friends and adventures showing up every day!

There is no quicker way to “pretty” up your workspace then a gorgeous up-cycled chandelier.  And you don’t need to worry about going overboard, I know people who even have chandeliers in the laundry room.  I think it makes my laundry room a little jealous.  These ideas will light the spark of creativity within.

How do you light up your workspace?

What is the most creative vase you use in your workspace or home?

Gogo Borgerding
GOGO Jewelry 

A love of painting and other artistic endeavors has led New Orleans jewelry designer Gogo Borgerding down a wonderful path that she says makes her happy and content. Her foray into jewelry making began with Shrinky Dink and has evolved into a successful business. Nowadays she layers colored anodized aluminum sheets underneath a sterling silver top layer. She cuts her design out of the silver, then the individual layers are stacked together, drilled, and attached with handmade silver rivets. Gogo’s dazzling color and striking designs result in showstopping jewelry that always gets attention.

Have you ever used a book for more than reading?
