Press: Windowsill Chats with Margo Tantau, Featuring Margaux Kent of Peg and Awl
 |
“Margo is joined by Margaux Kent, Co-Founder of Peg and Awl. Margaux and her husband Walter created Peg and Awl without a plan but rather a fortunate pairing of two minds, different but in sync. Together with a team they create from olde things, treasures found and recovered from misfortune and neglect, relics of the unusual, the confused and the macabre, cut and pulled and built into wearable curiosities, inscribable keepsakes and usable, long-lasting treasures.” |
Episode 121: Designing and Making Useful Treasures That Inspire Creative Living With Margaux Kent of Peg and Awl
Margo and I discuss discovery, poetry, and all sorts of making; we also talk about the beginnings of Peg and Awl, the importance of promoting oneself and keeping everything in house, and more. But listen for yourself! I do blather a lot, but, erm, practice shall improve the ongoingness in time!

Becky also shared this very thoughtful review of her father’s watercolor Scout. I love hearing her perspective as she walks through and discovers the features of the Scout, after watching Walter’s walkthrough video. Enjoy!

Jeannine gave each maker so many pages to share our most treasured creations and moments!
Greenleaf & Blueberry
WebsiteJess’s paints are so satisfying! I love painting with them, and, from a maker’s perspective, I appreciate the way the paints fill the vessels so cleanly. They look even better when messy with use!

Beam Paints
WebsiteI’ve had the pleasure of chatting with Anong Beam on the telephone, as well as getting to know her through Instagram and her paints! Her exploratory process is incredibly inspiring, how I’d love to peek into her studio!
Viarco
WebsiteI enjoy Viarco’s water soluble graphite in many forms and always have a few pencils and a tin in my Sendak Artist Roll.
Kremer Pigments
WebsiteWalking into Kremer in NY years ago, changed my life! The film Turner introduced me to pigments on scales for paint making and I vaguely recall the paint making in The Rise and Fall of Silas Lapham. But walking into Kremer unlocked a reality that I was absolutely smitten with – and I’ve been making paints ever since!
La Maison Du Pastel
WebsiteWatching their process of making on Instagram is mesmerizing and strangely, I want to visit and sink my teeth and being into the process.
Musgrave Pencil Company
WebsiteThe endless satisfaction of multiples!
Chalk Copenhagen
WebsiteAnother scrumptious handmade pastel company. I better get to using mine up so I can try out others!
