Our designer bakes, bright + bold.
It started at first stitch. The holidays are more than stuffing stockings to our lead designer, Jen Colburn. To her, it's about when she met design + fell in love.
When Jen was very young, she'd gather with her grandmother, mom + siblings to decorate cookies. Everyone around her raced through it, loaded on the frosting + sprinkles and that was that. Not Jen.
"I remember sitting there -- meticulously placing each chocolate sprinkle on a gingerbread man so it was perfectly stitched. Looking back, I realize this where my passion for design started to evolve."
From frosted snowmen with blue nonpareil eyes + sugar buttons, to gingerbread people with chocolate sprinkle stitching, her attention to detail and love for design started young + is now a part of her daily life as our ever-inspiring, lead designer.
That was then. This is now.
"Inspired by all that's bold + bright this season, from sequined skirts {J.Crew}, to sparkling holiday decor {love Lonny Magazine's Holiday Mini Issue!} to glistening ornaments, my cookies this year took on a bold feel with bright colors and a bit of sparkle."
Her cookies aren't the only place she infused bright + bold inspiration, check out some of her signature designs for our New Year collection. Her same thoughtful attention to detail, born out of stitching tiny gingerbread people has carried into our holiday collection. The perfect way to greet the new year - with a POP of color.
