And yet another Absinthe Party
Friday, August 17th, 2007

To all my Bay Area friends, here’s a special heads up. I’ll be performing my amazing retro winding double-knob toy at an absinthe party in San Francisco on Saturday (August 18th).
Sorry to be so vague, but I’m sure most folks reading this already know the important details. If you would like to attend, but don’t [...]

Yet another last minute craft show
Friday, August 17th, 2007

I’ll be vending at the Mission Indie Mart this saturday (August 18th).
There’ll be organic hot dogs, tons of vendors, and of course I’ll have my cozies and wallets.
Mission Indie Mart will be in the same location as last time (Guerrero between 25th and 26th). Check out the flyer for it.

Modern Times/Miranda July
Sunday, August 12th, 2007

Yesterday was swell. I had table space at Crafticon, a trunk show at Modern Times Bookstore, where I sold a few wallets and yo-yos. It was Modern Time’s first craft fair, and I think it went okay. The hours listed were a bit long; set up at 10, tear down at 8, and some more [...]

slim wallets both made from tailored scraps of raw selvage denim.
Also, [...]

Paul got his absinthe back
Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

In December I was at an absinthe party at the Climate Theater that got raided. Shan brought her aunt and uncle, and the whole thing happened right as we were ordering our drinks. Awkward.
Paul, the promoter, kept the details of the raid quiet until his court date. It turned out that the case was dropped, [...]

Research
Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

Spent all day sewing coffee cozies then I bought some 40 oz and 24 oz beers for research.
I’m assuming I can write these off.
I got a custom order from Matt Dalton today to make a beer cozy similar to my last one, but for a smaller bottle. He wants a matching wallet as well.
