Just Beautiful..another Wonderful album

Guerilla Atelier

I thought I would  check out the Arts District in Downtown LA and found Guerilla Atelier, an amazing luxury fashion Atelier. 

Carl Louisville, the founder, explained that he was inspired to mimics the shops of Paris in the 19th century and create a modern boutique style in DTLA. 

Carl explained that for 15 years, he managed Prada in Beverly Hills, where he was surrounded with a world of luxury and decided to experiment with a pop-up of his inspirational ideas on the weekends. 

It was a huge success! 

So he made the decision to leave Prada and devote himself full-time to open Guerilla Atelier. 

Carl has really created an beautiful and inspirational environment of one of a kind specialty item…that likely will not be found anywhere else. 

If you have a chance  take a look its a wonderful experience.

Summer Seed Starting 2014

Well Thanks to Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company, I decided to give it a try and start my vegetable garden from scratch with new heirloom varieties and some seeds I saved from last summers harvest.

I planed out the minifarmboxes and planted seeds then covered with deer netting to keep the squirrels and birds away.

Then took another set of seeds and used starters containers and planted them, covering with cheese cloth to keep damp and protect from the birds squirrels and wind

I'm excited to see how this works out
