We visited the Cherry Festival, did loads of beading, took a tour of the historic asylum (actually not scary, pretty cool), went to Sleeping Bear Dunes, tie dyed, made oven s'mores and even did some...
A well deserved summer break We’ve been heads down all year launching some really exciting brands and websites! We're busier than ever. We're doing some of our best work yet. Which is why taking a break right now might seem counterintuitive. One of our values at Emerald is ensuring our business decisions allow for a work life balance (our other values: make impactful design accessible and exceed client expectations).
