This Fall, I’ve enjoyed working with the Starkville Convention & Visitors Bureau / Main Street Association to promote Starkville, MS — my town! This year’s theme for the Christmas calendar of events was “Christmas in Candyland.” Enjoy a peek at some of the Ho Ho projects from the campaign!

I came across these amazing tiny ribbon sculptures from Ribbonesia. They are really a gift in themselves. Enjoy and be inspired!

“all is calm. all is bright.”

Hello & welcome! My name is Haley Montgomery, and I’m the designer and owner of Small Pond Graphics. I sometimes fancy myself a frog kisser — a documentarian coaxing poignant moments from unexpected places. This blog has evolved from those moments.

The Small Pond Field Guide is part diary, part sketchbook, and part wish list — an archive of ordinary wonders. For years, this space has housed my stories — creative ideas, vintage inspiration, our forays into curious places, and the simple artifacts of quiet and conscious living. Through watercolor, photography, and illustrated tales, these pages uncover the blessing of ordinary days and the wonder found in authentic places and pursuits.

Open the boxes. Peek into the drawers. Rustle through the pages. I’m honored to have you here.
