Hello! I’m writing to you from semi-sunny England!

Having a lovely time travelling all over the English countryside. Just got back from a week in the Cotswolds, and a week in Southampton, and tomorrow I’m off to Bedfordshire.

Hope everyone is is happy in internet land. I’ll be back in the studio in about a week and a half, ready to work on the orders that are coming in.

I just found out that www.remnantclothing.com is closing down on March 1st, and everything is 60% off. I love their recycled creations. I don’t know why they are closing, but in any case, it would be rude to not go on a little spending spree in their sale!

Have I missed anything back in Edmonton? Crazy cold weather??

I am going on Vacation to England! Gotta escape this cold weather!

Any online orders placed February 1st - March 5th will be shipped on March 6th (and 7th if there’s lots and lots).

I have so many ideas for new products and can’t wait to be on the plane with a sketch book and spend 9 hours finally scribbling down all these plans and ideas. Stay tuned… I’ll try and pop in and say hello during my trip.

[note: I'm escaping this freezing cold weather in early February for about a month! The shop http://www,acornstudios.ca will be closed during this time. Just a heads up to order asap if you'd like any geekware shipped before I leave]

Oh yay! Dog walking will not be very fun tomorrow!

What’s the coldest temperatures you’ve ever experienced?

Anyone remember playing pong? It seemed so high-tech and exciting at the time!!

Now you can wear your vintage gaming pride around your neck with this pong tribute necklace. Available here: Link

You exercise, right? You jump around playing Wii games. That means you deserves some cake! Mmmmmm, yummy.

Did you make mix tapes back in the 80’s and early 90’s. I did, I used to make LOADS of them. I remember mix tapes of Blur, the La’s, Pixies, Jane’s Addiction, Radiohead, and so many more. I think all my old mix tapes are over in England….I miss them….

I stumbled across these retro mix tape cards by InvitaPaperStudio and I’m in love. Aren’t they awesome?

I’m busy working on a project for the Provincial government this week. I’m using old calendars, flyers, birthday cards, paint chip books, and packaging supplies. Here’s a few ‘before’ pics of my supplies:

Check back in a few days if you’d like to see what I’m going to be making with all this stuff!

Would you like your computer to look like this?
