New Fluorescent Bicycle Notecards

I don't know why I thought I'd have so much time to work on new items while on maternity leave...here I am on the day before returning to the office, posting about a few new items in our etsy shop because I finally got around to taking some decent photos.  At least I'm getting to it in time for the holidays...

The first new item is a Rainbow Pack of Fluorescent Bicycle Notecards.  The classic rainbow pack has been a big favorite, but I thought I would go a little retro this time.  I considered offering them with black envelopes, but most people don't have the special pens required to write on them, so I stuck with the standard kraft envelopes.

James and Evander

Since it was in our neighborhood, I stopped by the Rock Make street festival to check out some crafts and tunes.  There were only a few food trucks and I had seen many of the vendors before at other street fairs, but I did stumble upon the lovely electronic pop of James and Evander.  They remind me a little of Elkland and The Postal Service.  I'm going to download their album today.  =)

Wow! I wish I could check this place out in person.

I was reading through my frequented blogs this morning and Remodelista featured La Patisserie des Reves in Paris.  Too bad I didn't get to check it out when I was there earlier this year!  It's beautiful, as are the treats, I'm sure.

The treats are preserved under temperature-controlled domes on pulley systems!

Wowsers!  Our Bicycle Note Card Rainbow Pack was featured on Oh So Beautiful Paper today.  That's exciting and very flattering.  I always see beautiful paper goods on that blog.

Friday Wishlist -More Cool Seating

I know...I'm a bit obsessed with seating these days.  There are just so many interesting things out there.  It probably won't stop until I have a proper couch and a complete dining set.

Why do I love the Lin collection?  The Lin Chair has such interesting lines. I am so curious to sit in one to see if it is comfortable.  The Lin Bench also has such a clean look that would look great in the living room or on one side of my dining table.  The Lin Chair and Bench do not use polyurethane foam, but rather use Dacron filling, which is made of polyester.  The wool upholstery is chemical free.

De La Espada Sleepy Rocker

And this rocker...I love the way the wood is shaped so that each side looks like one piece.

Sigh....more reasons to win the lottery...

Manhattan Rooftop Garden Project

I have to give props to my sister for her recent television interview.  She writes a blog on rooftop gardening in Manhattan.  She started it a few years back when she was a law student and we all thought she was crazy.  Since then she's been featured documentaries, books, quoted by Reuters and interviewed on television.  Very cool.
