Mini-Pedestal Sale

This almost never happens,

so grab them while you can!

inpirations: danken

i just found out about danken yesterday.
danken is committed to sourcing fibers from farms
that are organic and predator-friendly.

(predetor friendly means that
no lethal controls are used
on the sheep's native predators.
-i didn't even know that sort of thing existed.)

ashley helvey is the wondergirl
behind the felting
she also has a really lovely blog.

stay tuned for more about danken.
things are a-brewin'.
:)

Inspirations: Kate Clark

pretty much don't have to

say much about kate clark's work.

it sort of speaks for itself.

(!!!)

(all photos by brian except the last one -
that one is from the artist's site)

here's a nice write up
from laura in
seattle met's 'wear what when.'

great styling

i love love love the styling
for this jewelry line.
i'm not sure where i found this
or whose jewelry this is
-
i do remember that
i didn't find the jewels
too compelling.
-
but i LOVE this
image.

i want an older bearded
sean connery-esque
man to model
something that i make.

overheard: in our studio

overheard* while reading this:
"god.
i could be a supermodel too,
if i weighted 98 lbs.
you psychopathic
whore."**

thanks to beth
for the words of wisdom
and the opening ceremony blog
(which we love)
for the inspiration.

*overheard just might have
to become a regular thing
on this here blog.

**nothing against
super skinny people
(or whores for that matter).
we love all shapes and sizes.

inspirations: abigail reynolds

ya-OW-zers.

i've recently mentioned my
obsession
with crocheting.

just found this and wanted to share.

toxicity test
from abigail reynolds.

"...reference for this work are the toxicity tests
performed on spiders in the 1960's
to determine the levels of
toxicity of recreational drugs."

siiiiiiiiiiick.

more work by the same artist.
the universal now.





these make me want
to puke my guts out.
they are so good.

ok, i'm back

(random brian photo. i like these)

it's strange being away from the blogging.
(yes i said "the blogging")

it's like being away from
your lover for a time
and feeling a little
like strangers when you see each other again.

so i knew,
in order to come back, it had to be GOOD.

so here it is....


we've pre-launched our new logo.
website and online store due to hit the internet waves on
april 1st, 2010.

whoop.
