Today we died...

Scarves, that is. Sometimes, the fashionABLE scarves need a little extra TLC, so Bianca and I had the privilege to hand-dye scarves. We literally drew the short straws. We put on old t-shirts, rubber gloves, and spent an hour in the basement with our hands in a bucket of warm water and scarves. Sarah, the scarf production expert, gave us our fairly simple instructions and then we had one hour to...

On New Obsessions: Flags and Musicians

Dear Numerous Faithful Blog Followers, Well, this week (or rather, this Fun Day Friday), our team is a little sparse. Kelsey has left us for Bonnaroo, but we have excused her due to her role as “Artist Relations Mochatern”…seems appropriate. The lovely Study-Abroad’ing Chelsea has still not arrived. And so it is just yours truly, Tay Tay, and Tabz in the office today....

parting thoughts...

a lot has happened in the last 4.5 months we’ve been together as interns —- in many ways it’s hard to believe our time together has already come to an end. time truly does fly when you’re having fun; but to be able to serve others and create change in the lives of the others while having fun…well, that’s what we call a pretty incredible opportunity. from...

grommets 101.

So I’ve been spending quite a bit of time lately with a hammer in hand…and no, I did not turn into a handywoman over night. Trust me when I say it’s going to be a while before I’m attempting any serious forms of “home improvement.” However, I do believe I have mastered the art of grommeting. Grommeting is not a word you will find in the dictionary for the simple...

photoshoot

“I get to do what??” I didn’t say it out loud but I totally thought it. I knew before I arrived in Nashville for my graphic design internship that I was going to be working on the Valentine’s fashionABLE campaign. What I didn’t know, is that I would get to run with the project from concept to creation. And I didn’t know that I would develop an idea that would require a photo shoot. And I didn’t...

Time flies when you're fashionABLE

FashionABLE has consumed all time for the interns and most Mocha Club staff members, thus the extreme lapse in blog posts. SO sorry about that. But, we have a few things to update everyone on! Seattle Pacific University Mocha Club campus rep, Tessa Torres, was featured in an article in which she talks about Mocha Club and FashionABLE. It’s a great read and awesome to see our campus reps...

DB at the Fro Mo

So, my mom is in town from California for a few days and I had to take her to one of my favorite coffee shops, Frothy Monkey, for breakfast. (My bff was there, too. You’re welcome, Topher). We walked in and the first person I saw was none other than the man, the myth, the legend, the Dave Barnes. Not only is he a Mocha Club artist, he is also reallyyyyy funny. If you don’t believe me,...

Happy Wednesday!! It’s just Catherine, Cassidy and me (Chelsea) holding down the intern office on this beautiful fall day. In case any of you were wondering, Catherine and Cassidy are doing great! They are currently taking turns ironing and folding scarves on the floor. While they do that, I am taking a break because we wanted to give a huge shoutout to campus rep Ashley Simon at Rutgers...
