Collect and Gather is the heart and soul of Shovel + Spade. When I’m not working you can find beachcombing the shores of Lake Michigan. This blog combines my love for our planet and the treasures I happen upon when I clean it. Tumblr

I debuted these recycled, blue-glass Woolly Travel Cups last weekend at @saucedmarket ⭐️ and they’ll be just one of the NEW offerings you’ll be able to find at my in-person events in Fall. This colorway is from an ombré, artist dyed roving, I call California Magic and yes, it really makes magic everytime! Loading up every weekend for the next month to bring you Woollys for Fall! 🍁🍂 Summer never feels quite like it’s over till Summer Phish Tour comes to a close ⭕️ And Summer ‘26 was a tour to talk about for years to come. Starting off heavy in Wisconsin with FUEGO 🧡🔥🩷 then we BLAZE On 🔮🧡 to Deer Creek where we’re gifted an extended intro + sunset that truly did PUNCH you in the Eye 🎆💜🩷 Woolly ready for your next adventure?? 🍺🪵🌲🛶 Grab one before Ewe leave town at @cozy_collective_mke - I’ve got solids stocked in cans and drinkware, along with Packers 🏈 Pride 🌈& MKE Flag 💛💙 Going through my stash and getting psyched for the Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival next week!! Each sheep truly is unique and the last ten years has only taught me how there is still so much to learn! The natural properties and capabilities of wool fibers are absolutely endless and everyday I’m so grateful to have fallen into felting. I’m always on the hunt for something new and unique to inspire me before the holidays. Ready to feel all the feels (literally) and see what speaks to me next week. 🙌🐑🖤 #wswf #ilovewool #textileartist Salute your Shorts 🫡🌈🍺 Stroll the Shop with Me & see what’s NEW at @cozy_collective_mke #cozycollective #mke Summer has been flying by, with Fall markets just around the corner!! I’ve got my feet planted in town this weekend, and can’t wait to see all your lovely faces at @cozy_collective_mke ~ Saturday!!! Come & Visit & say Hi! and see what’s NEW for Ewe!! 🐑😀 FOX 🦊 » Hot in the Shop!!! Did Ewe know that Wool is the traditional 7th Anniversary Gift?? Each summer Woollys start rolling out for Wedding Season and it’s always cool to see which styles from spring gain traction in the shop. I’ve been vibing with Magpie all summer! 🐦‍⬛💜

My work combines the ancient medium of felting with contemporary form and modern color, by seamlessly encasing a variety of glassware and beverage items with a one of a kind, insulating Woolly sleeve. Each item is individually hand-formed, from local, ethically sourced wool. The movement and fluidity of working in the round allows for colors to dance and weave together creating organic contrasting patterns on every piece.
