I have a pregnancy secret! Wearing a watermelon-colored lip stain has made me feel like a million bucks. I have always wanted to try out a darker pink shade, and honestly since first wearing it a few days ago I’ve kinda worn it everyday since. I feel like it brightens my entire mood, which makes… [Read More]
What’s your favorite (fiction) book?
Reading is one of those pastimes that totally relaxes me yet inspires me, all at the same time. Often when I’m reading my mind trails off and my thoughts jump from one idea to another, but the neat thing is I don’t forget what I’m reading about or lose my spot on the page. I… [Read More]
24 weeks baby bump.
Aaaaand, we’re back in action with the baby bump updates. And this week Max is joining in :) The biggest update for this week is that Baby #2 is now kicking nonstop, so hard some times that my belly jumps and you can see it. With my second pregnancy I feel like the baby’s movement… [Read More]
My reflection in the mirror.
Since becoming a mama I’ve come to notice my reflection in mirrors when I walk past with Maxwell in my arms. It’s been a sweet way to see myself with him, but from a different perspective. The other day I was inside a fancy baby boutique with my brother (yahoo, he’s visiting all week from… [Read More]
How to sew a fanny pack.
I recently had the opportunity to sew a fanny pack. Oh yes, that’s right. And while at first I was totally disabled over how to actually sew it (I like to over-complicate the process (don’t ask me why)), I had a light-bulb moment one afternoon and realized I could take my template for a Gussy… [Read More]

Secondly, we celebrated the Fourth of July and went to our first parade with Maxwell, hooray! What a wonderful day for our country to celebrate. And then to… [Read More]
A beach video, plus thoughts on purpose.
A day at the beach. from gussy sews on Vimeo. * * * I have little conversations with myself kinda regularly now that revolve around “purpose” and what I have to share/say. It’s gotten a lot harder lately to define these two things, and sometimes it feels really confusing. Do you ever feel like that?… [Read More]

I keep a little folder on my computer of handmade pretties I think are super great, and lately I’ve got my eye on all things ceramic. I love the combination… [Read More]
Black paint and a Friday afternoon.
Last week I spent some time working on a few projects for myself. Even though I really wanted to take an afternoon nap. Even though I knew it would be a bit of work to get everything out and set up. Even though I knew at some point during my project Max would wake up… [Read More]
An incredibly freeing quote…
I saw this quote while scrolling through Instagram last week. It has stuck with me ever since, so I knew I had to write it down. The simplicity of the phrase is beautiful and incredibly freeing, don’t you think? What I’ve been noticing recently is how easy it is to sit and obsess over getting… [Read More]
