My dear friend Alexis Beucler sent me this quote from artist Caroline Wayne yesterday: ‘When our own truth feels too ugly to face, often our best deflection is to cover it in confection.’

With that in mind, here’s a giant, twisted sprinkle comb for your Monday perusal. At 18 inches long, from its tiniest tooth to its wiggly handle, it’s undeniably adorbs but entirely impractical—much like trying to comb through today’s wonky political landscape. Every morning, we wake up to a fresh tangle of headlines, proposed policies, and decisions. I have already been affected by them as I know many others have. And yet, we push forward, going through our daily routines and still throwing on a cute outfit—because sometimes, dressing up and continuing to get out there is the only way to deal. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Expect more of these comb and hairbrush buddies to emerge over the next few months. The “sprinkles” are painted with glossy nail polish and the base is high fired stoneware with plenty of bedazzling.
