What's with the spinny head?

Well. I'm glad you asked.

You see: a happy face makes everything better.

So I figured why not use it as a "wait cursor" for the site. You know, instead of a boring spinning orb.

HAPPY FACES RULE!

free? heck yes

Free what? Free hand delivery to all Brooklyn addresses, that's what.

What's the catch? Well you gotta buy something... and it's for BROOKLYN ADDRESSES ONLY. Other than that - no catch.

When checking out in the Shopping Cart, you'll see this Special Courier / Hand Delivery option appear when you select NYC as your destination like so:

Make sure to give a valid phone number and/or email address during checkout so we can contact you to set up a good time to drop off your package.

Why am I doing this? Because I feel like it, that's why.

Plus I love Brooklyn, baby.

daily candy

hey hey!
our great truss planter from pull+push was featured in daily candy's shoptalk section this week.

new designer: kwilti

Julie Floersch is one of the great Brooklyn designers we found selling her work at a holiday market this past season. A super-talented and skilled quilter, Julie makes her intricate patchwork creations accessible through her Kwilti line of accessories. We now have in the shop her Pyramid and Pouf earrings and awesome-est potholders made from worn denim scraps. I also have a lovely collection of pillow covers that have yet to be photographed. So go check em out.

world links metal

the plexi world links necklace from design glut was a great success for us over the holidays. we only have a couple of the green left, and they're now on sale for $42. dg has since come out with a new model to replace the plexi version- the metal world links necklace, which we now have in stock. made of brass, it comes plated in shades of silver, black and gold. classy!

nbc new york hearts us

blogger elizabeth bougerol has done a couple of posts about ebmerc jewelry! yay, someone out there is noticing us. the first happened while we were in the midst of gifted craziness, mentioning design glut's smoking gun. now another, on the huichol indian art barrettes.
