Black Iris Ventures
Hi there. I’m Dani, a painter, avid gardener, design enthusiast, and renovator. My husband, Eric, and I are slowing turning our 118-year-old fixer into our launching pad for the future that we desire. We firmly believe in living by design, not by default. We are enjoying this adventure with our 3 furry sons and vivacious daughter. We’ve created The Little Black Workshop as a place to share our adventures, progress, thoughts, musings, dreams and inevitable reality checks. Thanks for following along!
Hi there! I’m Dani, an artist, Art History nerd, avid gardener, design enthusiast, world traveler and recovering perfectionist. My husband, Eric, and I are slowing turning our 121-year-old fixer into our launching pad for the future that we desire. We firmly believe in living by design, not by default. Most days you’ll find me running around with my partners in crime, Iris and Runa, and plotting our next endeavor. We’ve created Black Iris Ventures as a place to share our adventures, progress, musings, dreams and inevitable reality checks. Enjoy.
