Fresh From The Dairy: Spirituality + Mysticism

                                If you live in Southern California, then you know that spirituality is big out here… from palmistry and crystals, mystical ideas, to alchemy and the superstitious evil eye—all that jazz isn’t a new thing, but if you live elsewhere, you might see this trend creepin’ on in… I was inspired to create this <a href="http://www.society6.com/prints/design-milk?curator=designmilk" >Society6</a> collection after my trips to the desert here in SoCal. Enjoy!

In this episode of Clever, Lee Broom entertains Jaime and Amy with stories of being a child actor in a Shakespeare company, winning a fashion design competition that led to working with Vivienne Westwood, and designing the most expensive lightbulb you’ll ever buy. His flair for theatre makes an appearance in everything he does, from dramatic light fixtures to design week stunts he always puts on a gorgeous show. Listen:
