San Francisco Shops: What I Saw

For quite awhile I had been compiling a list of the San Francisco shops that I wanted to visit. I didn’t get to all of them, unfortunately, but here are a few that I got to check out: Aria Aria…

Fabric Goodness

I’ve mentioned before how much I love pattern art, so naturally I’m drawn to patterned fabrics. I’m definitely not an expert, but one of my favorite things to do when I have free time (which isn’t often) is sew. And…

Present & Correct

I’ve seen these letterpress Dish of the Day cards from Present & Correct around quite a bit lately, especially in the National Stationery Show coverage. I love their graphic simplicity, and packaging is awesome. (How can you not love those…

Best Store Ever

I realize that’s a bold statement to make; and I’m sure quite a few people wouldn’t agree with me. But ever since I read about Scrap on design*sponge, I was dying to get there. And I wasn’t disappointed. A warehouse…

San Francisco: Heath Ceramics

When I went out to San Francisco I had a list of shops I wanted to visit, and Heath Ceramics was at the top. Luckily, we spent one day out in Sausalito—which is beautiful, by the way—so I got to…

T-shirt Wednesdays

I must admit that sometimes I’m a complete sucker for cute. And this Threadless shirt (while I’m not sure I’d actually wear it) is ridiculously so. Cooking with Friends, $20 at Threadless And another type tee… Punctuation, $25 at Turn…

Naked & Angry

I know most people have heard of Threadless, but Naked & Angry, another skinnyCorp company, is lesser known. Here instead of t-shirts, you submit patterns for judging and scoring by users of the site. Then if ranked high enough, they…

Renegade Update

So unfortunately I don’t really have any pictures from Renegade on Sunday. The weather was not so great—glad I remembered an umbrella—but there was some great stuff to be seen. I didn’t buy very much but I did make note…

Animal Print Madness

Fun, whimsical animal prints from photographer, Catherine Ledner. Of course, I especially love them because of the vibrant wallpaper backdrops. There are tons to choose from, from alligator to zebra. Too bad they’re still a little bit out of my…
