I need these shoes

I need these Nikes. I don't normally wear Nikes. I don't think I've ever owned a pair. And I'm not a sprinter, either. But these fish skin Nikes are so damn cool. I've only found a few pairs on eBay (and unfortunately they are rarely in my size). In fact, these ones aren't in my size but I'm thinking I can throw them on the stretcher and widen them up.
The yellow ones are definitely my favorite. But there's others.
Someone buy me a pair and I will be eternally grateful (on the inside).



Although those high-tops are pretty wicked shoes, too....

VajayJ!!!


If you need some awesome custom stencil work - VajayJ is the place to go! She's keeping busy in snowy Chicago by making some incredible artwork! She can customize colors, styles, and even makes stencils out of your loved ones! How cooI think is that?
I think I'm surfing Etsy too much.... Is there such a thing as too much?

Etsy is full of amazing things you never knew you needed. Just recently I found the shop of scrumdidlyump.

She also has some pretty awesome bowls and trays. The colors just melt together and make each creation a unique and mesmerizing piece of art!

You need Beer

Holsters, that is. And who doesn't? These wonderful creations of Allen's are astonishing. The texture and beauty of the leather is amazing. Each one takes a lengthy process of wet-molding and tooling and staining and buffing and edging..... They're a handful, but they're worth it.

Imagine stunning your friends and neighbors with your stylish beer-filled swagger. They ooh and ahh with delight and jealousy.....

Buddy Bags are good for you




So you thought you could go the rest of your life without touching one of these? What were you thinking? Go to: Etrelles
I've been making these little buggers for quite some time and I adore them. The leather is incredibly soft and I usually add something that makes it completely unique like an exotic strip or circle or some laminated ephemera sewn in. They're incredibly handy, too. I usually don't prefer a wristlet over a purse, but my Buddy Bag was very useful at work.

I don't know if I'd ever like to mass-produce a particular Buddy; the notion of each one being an individual appeals to me a little bit more. As well as the fact that I get bored very easily.

Hug your loved ones.
