Our friend Malorca of Bird and Bicycle posted this video, and we are reposting it because we love this love story, too.

You know you have some. Write them down! Our friend, Jesse Lortz, letterpressed the covers of these little idea pamphlets and then used the book binding stitch he learned at our book making event with Kate Lebo They have graph paper inside and come in many colors. Pick one up for $6 + tax.
They look really good with record interiors, too.

Recently, we became friendlies with a couple of delightful ladies, Emily and Susan, doing an artist in residency program at PROJECT: WORKSPACE AVAILABLE up the street. They came all the way from Halifax, Nova Scotia (that's in Canada) to explore an idea.
By way of our friend Mark Ferrin, they made their way into our shop. And when they were leaving, I helped them paint their project space and noticed that Emily had a pair of rainboots unlike any others I had ever seen. And when she told me that all she did was cut off her regular rain boots, I immediately imitated with my own rain boots at home later that evening.
She sported them when she came to say good-bye to us on a very rainy day this week.
