As you’ll come to know, I love finding people that follow their passion and create a living. I found just this person two years ago and have obsessively followed her work, admired her creativity and celebrated her growing family! Her name is Inslee Fariss and she is Inslee By Design. She’s a New York artist and illustrator and has created work for Neiman Marcus, Nautica, Lela Rose, Jack Rogers, The Huffington Post, Moda Operandi, Shiseido, Elizabeth Arden and many others! She’s a total #honey and kinder than she is beautiful and talented! Meeting people, women especially that follow their passion and talent and turn it into a business makes me tremendously happy. It’s with that sheer delight, that I introduce you to Inslee by Design.
I met her while taking a fashion drawing class that she was teaching at Nieman Marcus. She wouldn’t remember me, but I will never forget her. Not being artistically talented AT ALL, she guided me through the process of drawing a figure and painting with watercolor to create a knock off of her little masterpiece.
This little minx offers her adoring fans yearly calendars, a variety of fruit, vegetable and botanical prints, custom ornaments, placemats and nursery items. I follow her blog and suggest you do the same. I like everything she does, but my favorite is her fashion calendar! It’s stunning on a desk, in your kitchen and makes THE BEST gift for any of your Vitamin G’s. I missed out on this years calendar, which is sold out, but here’s a peek at what you could expect for next year. It comes with a brass tripod and 12 custom months all for $58. She offers fashion, food, animals and botanicals to delight just about everyone! Honestly, it’s the perfect gift for so many reasons! It’s darling unusual and affordable. As if that’s not enough, you’ll be supporting a girl, who went for it, and followed her dream! #justagirlwhowentforit
When you visit her website be sure to read her blog and skim down the page to see her nudes collection. It was commissioned, so perhaps you cannot get your hands on these little beauties, but they’re worth a peek regardless! They are perfect for a feminine bathroom or your closet. And thank you Mrs. Fariss for making your nude figures ample in all the right places! #realwomen #ieatcarbs
learn, laugh and lighten up,
Mrs. Funny Honey
