Gravel & Gold

Our simple barrel-shaped toiletry bag // dopp kit // lotion pouch // or you could use it for a ton of colored pencils is a good thing to have around. It has a brass zipper up top, an end loop that hangs comfortably on a hook, and a strap across the other end. Holds a lot. As in, a full-sized contact solution bottle plus all the other potions we generally try to smuggle aboard flights in our carry-on bags.

The size of the thing 10.5" long x 4.75" across.

Made in San Francisco, California.

The sun seems here to stay and so the official changing of the wardrobe guard is upon us. If only I didn't abhor everything I own while at the same time feel unwilling to pass things down to an anonymous drop box. Must be time for another grand SWAP MEET PARTY! From 6 to 8 pm, Thursday night, bring on down all your has-beens and take home some ah-has.

The first item I'll be offering up is this photograph from the first year I moved to California. I've been holding on to it in my photo library all this time, though I've long forgotten (or never knew?) this fella's name or his story. I've decided to spring clean him from my hard drive, but not before sharing his shiny Lorax spirit with others who might appreciate it as I have. And now there's a little bit more space in my life and a little more joy in yours.

Tonight we're throwing a Solstice Party in honor of our dear Makers. It's a SALE PARTY y'all.

 

7 to 8 pm : 10% discount 8 to 9 pm : 20% sale 9 to 10 pm : 30% OFF

 

Our bodies, ourselves are about 65% water. When we're floating in our mamas' bellies (in amniotic fluid, about 98% water), our mamas feel extra nice floating in a warm bath tub, relaxing their muscles and enjoying. Blessings on the floating babes, the floating mamas, and blessings on the water that floats us! Lisa Foti-Straus drew the sketch for this card one evening, sketching a pregnant sister-friend in the tub. A good one to give to mama's in wait. Emily Johnson printed them with a rainbow hued split fountain on an OG letterpress at EMprint Press, at YU, in Portland, Oregon. The recycled stock is heavyweight and a little bit toothy, with 25% cotton mixed in. The envelopes are 100% PCW recycled kraft paper.

"Hana 'i'o ka haole!"The foreigner does it in earnest! Neither strictly born on a Hawaiian island nor genetically Hawaiian, our nonetheless Hawaiian Lili designed "Go Stay Stay Go," honoring the moon, the mountains upon, and the sea that surrounds those paradises. A persimmon hue was selected for the backside and a fine gold powder was mixed in so that if you look carefully, these beauties shine. Emily Johnson printed these cards with love and expertise on an OG letterpress at EMprint Press, at YU, in Portland, Oregon. The recycled stock is heavyweight and a little bit toothy, with 25% cotton mixed in. The envelopes are 100% PCW recycled kraft paper.

A dreamy pillowcase to inspire sweet dreams. Standard-size (that's 17" x 24"), envelope-style (with an 8" pocket). Very dark green "Boobs" printed on fancy 230 thread count Pima cotton. Sewn here in San Francisco, California.

Sold individually.
