Project: Before the world shut down in March 2020, my incredibly genius husband gave me the idea to combine my love of our city + food: Saint Eatersburg. I immediately began to illustrate the most popular dishes of restaurant staples in our area, and then came the best idea: to make it an interactive element by having people color in the places as they eat at them!
I printed a small collection and sold them at St. Pete's Printmaking Fest, "St. Printersburg," and immediately sold out. It. Was. Incredible. Even when the world shut down, the demand was still coming for them -- I couldn't believe it!
The best part? Since starting @breakfastfordinner.co, it was always a dream of mine to eventually sell my products inside of another store. The moment that my husband showed the owner of our favorite coffee shop that their shop was on the bags (to which he immediately asked to purchase some!), my DREAM of selling these wholesale has come true -- you can buy these EXCLUSIVELY at Neighborhood Joe's in Saint Petersburg, Florida. From drawing all of the dishes to the original lettering to then printing them all by hand... they've been such a labor of love over these past few years that I have loved every moment of them.
