The new stuff is here!

Our expanded product line is here! It’s been months in the making, but we’ve finally released our new stuff, including new colors, designs, patterns, and sizes. Check out some of the images below to see what we mean.

The “harvest” collection is full of browns, creams, yellows, and golds. We updated the colors on our old designs too, like the Sunflowers Pendant shown in brown on beige.

We also added some new two color prints, like the Seaweed Pillow and the Wheat Pillow show above in the “neutral” collection (grays, browns, and creams)

The last collection is “garden”. Full of greens, yellows, and oranges. You can see one of our new designs, the Petals Pendant, above in green on beige, and an old favorite, the Vines Pendant, in a new fresh color, white on green.

We also added some new apparel designs. (I told you this update was months in the making). We added 3 new apparel designs to our existing 4, and came up with some brand new color combinations. Oh… and you might also recognize the model.

Santa Croce in Florence

On our recent trip to Italy, we went to Santa Croce in Florence (Firenze for all you Italians). It’s a beautiful cathedral full of renaissance art and renaissance people. It houses the tombs of the world’s most notable Florentines, including Michelangelo, Dante, Galileo, and Donatello.

While there, we stumbled upon a small room off to the side of the courtyard that contained a display of prints and posters, some old, some more current. There was a range of works from religious prints to theater posters. We’re suckers for anything hand printed, and these fit the bill.
