I love a gorgeous piece of fabric what can I say.

Check out the designs at http://Volksfaden.de

From sad to rad!



I found this nice but somewhat sad little commode at a thrift store awhile back and finally got around to giving it a little makeover. I covered it with this fab wallpaper I found on ebay and am really happy with the results. I would highly recommend doing this project. Its easy with quick and fabulous results. Shamon!

How do I love you? . . . Let me count the ways


I think this is the most thoughtful and sweetest gift I have ever received.
From my sweet hubby, a special Valentine's day book. Take a tip boys, she'll be putty in your hands after this one.

Know someone's fav band of all time? We try to source what we can so if you have a special request don't hesitate to ask and we'll see what we can do! (unless its something truly obscure!)Here's a special Blondie request we did for a custom order.

Have a favorite photo of your boyfriend rocking out his guitar? We can do custom labels with your photos and/or text too!

Pulse Spring 2009


We are officially signed on to the PULSE tradeshow here in London at Earls Court.
We are both slightly terrified since this will be our first major show. At least we have 3 months to prepare our booth and get everything in order. So much to do!
We will be showcasing our new vinyl jewelry range as well our signature clocks, and softies. Hope to see you there!

Things are starting to move!


So I have now finished the film I was working on "The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus". It was an interesting project and gave me the opportunity to meet and work with Terry Gilliam, an inspiring man. But alas, now I have time to work on The Grateful thread full time!

We have taken a brave and scary step and got some of the guitars manufactured!
these are the 3 designs -
