laptop pocket.


kelly and i launched our newest product, the laptop pocket, after hurriedly receiving samples from our manufacturer and photographing it at 8 last night. its designed specifically for the 15" macbook pro and comes in 4 limited edition colors. we're making small runs of each color so when they're sold out, they're gone!

and tomorrow's thanksgiving and i'm flying tonight (like every other american lacking any common sense) to wisconsin so i won't be posting for a couple days. but happy, happy thanksgiving!

broncks bicycle.


broncks bicycle
by bowery lane bicycle. it hasn't been too cold so i've still been able to ride my bike. hoping i can hold out for a little while longer.

work and work and work some more.




its been confirmed, i'm officially a workaholic. i've been attempting to not work one day a week, but it hasn't been working out that way. it may be the holidays or it just may be me.

this weekend we launched our new rectangle placemats. similar to the previous style but we're die-cutting them now and they have lovely rounded corners. clean and modern and beautiful and i'm loving 'em.

and we're having a 15% off sale on all items (excluding yardage and supplies) now until december 1st. offer is good at filzfelt.com by using coupon code EARLYBIRD. happy pre-holidays!

kelly and i have launched our 2009 holiday ornaments! plus we're excited to announce that this year we'll be donated a portion of the proceeds from the sales of our newest ornament set, zyklus (cycle), to boston-based bikes not bombs.

this non-profit’s mission is to promote peace and community development in underserved neighborhoods in the u.s. and abroad by fixing up, selling and distributing recycled bicycles.

so stock up and support a good cause!

i heart supermarket and so should you.





kelly and i have been on supermarket from the beginning (of filzfelt, not supermarket) and even participated in their modern mart event last year. we joined supermarket because we love what they're about and are honored to be of part of such a talented design community!

i heart ryan and randy and supermarket and so should you.

work.


its been a crazy week with a new felt shipment, getting ready to launch our holiday ornaments and two big projects that we were awarded!

crushes.





lately i've kind of been obsessed with tia of silvercocoon. she's a filzfelt customer and while i'm not usually into jewelry (i'm somewhat of a plain jane), i love the forms and materials she uses in her work. plus she's of finnish heritage, from minneapolis (yay midwest!) and has been influenced by scandinavian design (is there any other way?).

there are so many amazing, creative, beautiful woman around and i'm so happy that the web makes it so easy to connect with them. it definitely inspires me to work harder and just be more me.

power to the poster.




power to the poster by micah max. [via swissmiss.]

designed as a part of the power to the poster project held to raise awareness to issues that poster makers are passionate about. instead of blood for oil, immigration, or healthcare, i chose to try and create something that deals with interpersonal awareness. want to give or get some forgiveness? tear off a tab and make it happen.
