it's evolution (and giveaway!)...

via the evolution store

my shop almost has 500 sales!! it's exciting to think that there are (at the least, but definitely more than) 500 objects made by my hands floating out there in the world. to celebrate i'm giving the 500th buyer something a little extra- maybe it'll be you. who knows. AND i made new books and would like to do a little giveaway here too. (sexy book photos to follow. for now some photobooth vanity...) 


about the book. i love letters and mail and this is a little book/letter to mail, keep or gift. it's "cover" is made of an airmail envelope and has a vintage gummed label on the front. there are 12 vintage, found and up-cycled, lined, school ruled and gridded hand bound pages. whew. oh, and there is a "pocket" in the back. in it to win it? just leave me a comment.

aside: i wanted an image for this post that was somehow imaging "500" or a celebration, as in "kitty stampede" or "500 donuts". it's stange how fast the internet goes to breasts and nakedness in just a few clicks. hence i went with the "Evolution" image above via evolution, nyc. their new website is eye candy. i'd like to think MR is growing....

  9. cool! Love the little books. And yes, the internet has a dirty mind and will turn anything you type into boobs and nakedness. Happens a lot when I'm photo searching for things and I think: I didn't mean it in THAT way! Geesh!
