Gift ideas for men

It can be hard to find good gifts for the men in your life! Here are some ideas from our shops. There is still time left to shop online! We will upgrade to priority shipping for no additional charge when you spend $15 or more from now through December 21. Happy holidays!

Smoking Gandalf Gocco Print. This is printed on an original page from a vintage copy of Fellowship of the Ring!


Star Trek Magnet featuring Spock. One of a kind, made from recycled comic book page!


Robot Party T-shirt. Boys like robots. It's not an opinion.


Star Wars pins and magnets made from old comic books. Great stocking stuffer for your boyfriend or your son!


VIVA LA VINYL t-shirt for the guy who appreciates is LPs more than is MP3 player.

a whole lot of printing.

I spent a few hours printing like crazy today.

First I finished up a small batch of adult VIVA LA VINYL t-shirts. We sold almost completely out of them after our last couple of shows and needed to restock. While I was at it I decided to print some hoodies that I had been holding on to for ages. I just wanted to have fun with it and decided to give these a fun, messy, mixed up look. It feels a little bit like graffiti and a little bit like a kid made it by themselves. I'm really happy with how these turned out!























Next I printed some RAD DAD t-shirts. I have had several requests for these and since I had some shirts on hand I decided to make a few for upcoming shows. These are also listed in my etsy shop.

















Early in the day I was waiting on the mail in hopes that the gocco ink I ordered would arrive today. It never came so I didn't finish all of the bibs I planned to print. I did make these cupcake bibs, though:






















and I'll be printing another batch of owls later this week when the ink arrives. I also hope to find time to print more tote bags before the weekend. The question is: can I heat set ALL of this stuff by Saturday morning? Ha!

Oh! So even though I didn't get my gocco supplies in the mail it was still a super exciting mail day. I received a package stuffed full of goodies from Bare Tree. They sent some seriously awesome items for the WIST Trunk Show swag bags. You're not going to want to miss out! Mark your calendars for December 13 and come early!

Well, I'm exhausted. It's back to my day job tomorrow but I know I'm going to have some late nights between now and then. I'm so excited for all of the shows coming up! If only I had it in me to plan better. I have just never been much of a planner. I don't know how all of you organized crafty ladies do it. Kudos to you!

I know the picture isn't the greatest, but isn't it CUTE? I colorized Chad's cupcake design that we used for the tote bags and made it into a sweet BIG magnet. It's available in my etsy shop along new star wars pins and other fun stuff.

I really can't believe that our first winter show is in just over 2 weeks. Does that mean it's going to start feeling like winter soon? So crazy. Well, I am going to try to get my supplies taken care of this weekend so I can make make make up until the DIY Trunk Show on the 22nd. I don't have much for inventory now so I'm planning to make LOTS over the next couple of weeks. Wish me luck!

The Cupcake Tote!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Mine was busy as usual. Guess what? I have a new tote bag design ready to reveal!

Introducing....

The Cupcake Tote:























This is another one that has been stuck in my head for a long time! The cupcake tote comes in light pink or light blue and includes removable cherries (pinback buttons.) The buttons are made from all kinds of papers including french text (a favorite of mine), pretty wrapping papers, fabrics, etc. - so each cupcake tote will be unique.

This bag has already got me wanting to frequent the bakery more...yes, I am seriously that impressionable.

We have two shows coming up in MN this weekend! I'm super excited and will post more about them in the next day or two!

Hope your day is the sweetest!

viva la vinyl!

A new design!
















We love playing records and recently had our turntable fixed up after being out of commission for awhile. Well actually...it's already broken again but hopefully it's a quick fix. So anyway...we were totally inspired to make a fun design showing our love for vinyl! I made adult shirts with black and yellow ink on brown, a few onesies, and a small batch of bibs. These items will be added to my etsy shop this week.

I finally received the parts I was waiting on for the new button maker! Yay! I spent some of my night experimenting and making magnets and mirrors. The set you see here is 3 magnets made from dictionary definitions - Epicure, Gourmet, Delicious. Perfect set for the foodie in your life.

I also made a batch of mirrors with pretty wrapping paper and will begin adding these designs to my shop this week!

I heart my new button maker!!
