// WALLPAPER AS MY LUGGAGE

//

I’m taking a break. From life. I’m sitting in my studio looking through photos from the past month. Thought I would come on here and talk to you. Remember the days when I used to write on here everyday. Every single morning before I went to work I would write something on here. I miss those days. Things were so simple then. Although I was broke, I was living in ny with this insane drive. It is crazy to think that I used to dream about working with the clients I do now. I am thankful and still have that drive, I am just tired. Maybe I just need to take a nap. I’m rambling.

Over the next two months CKD’s newest projects will open. Sel Rrose Montauk and my newest project in Miami. It has been seven day work weeks kind of life lately. I’m just learning how to build up the stamina again. My body isn’t used to it. One of the guys that founded Pinterest said having your own business is a marathon. It never stops. The only thing that must change is your ability to keep going.

I’ve been back and forth from New York lately. Carrying wallpaper on my flight instead of my luggage. Loads of things are happening and I could not be more excited. OK, break over. x C

// ANNEX HOTEL

//

Yesterday the Annex Hotel and I did a fun little shoot. I got to spend the night in this beautiful room. If you click to the front page, we shot all of our CKD lifestyle shots here. I really love its look. Excited to show you what our shoot was about. We are following up with a workshop in June! I’ll be teaching how to watercolour paint! Happy Monday! x C

// LATELY

// Planta opening/Faryl PilatesSaturday Social

Life lately has been nuts. So nuts that I completely crashed last week and slept for the majority of my days. No motivation no desire to do anything no creativity. It was nice to turn off for more than a day or two and allow myself to rest. I’m feeling back to normal and ready to start moving again. Planta Queen opens next week! Here is mural one of three that I did for them! Faryl’s bespoke print goes up next week. And I should have some more video and photos from The Saturday Social I spoke at at the beginning of this month! ALSO I may be exploring the world of YouTube… like… as a vlogger. I feel like it’s time we get a little closer. I’m really awkward in front of the camera, but there is really cool stuff going on for CKD that I feel needs to be talked about and captured! Stay tuned and subscribe to my channel now! x C

// COLETTE CAFE @ HOLT RENFREW

// International women’s day

What a weekend! Friday night I spent my night with these wonderful women at Colette Cafe in Holt Renfrew Yorkdale location. We spoke about fears, intention and values within a business, our best advice ever and some of our goals for 2019. I learned so much from these women. It’s so easy to get caught up in my own little CKD life I forgot how important it is to get out and meet people. Thank you for having me Colette!
