MONDAY OCTOBER 26.

I just updated my shop with a few new tote bags and will be adding a couple others throughout the day. I have now used up the last of my green woven wool so if you have been eyeing those tote bags go get one while you can!

AWAY TO THE WOODS.

i spent a few days at the most beautiful little cabin in the middle of the woods. it's almost too perfect to try and describe. but more than anything it both inspired and motivated me to find/build a small cabin of my own sooner rather than later. not like i need another task under my wing.. but damn man.. a few days in the forest in front of a woodstove will get your mind going.

INTERN.

forestbound is looking for an intern!

this would be ideal for someone in the boston area who is a skilled sewer, someone who appreciates nice packaging, and someone who enjoys drinking excessive amounts of coffee while listening to the same leadbelly album over and over all day.

if you or maybe someone you know would be interested please email me for more details-

A MATTER OF IMPORTANCE.

ashley is a close friend of mine and a few days ago she wrote a blog post talking about a recent incident where a large company ripped off one of her beautiful little animals and started mass producing them without her permission. ashley is one of the most talented and hardest working girls i know and i'm really, really happy that she wrote about her experience. you should go here and read about it.

i wish this topic was one that was talked about more openly. we all work so hard and dedicate so much of ourselves to coming up with our own ideas. i can't even tell you how many times i've seen these ideas get stolen by others. it's pretty heartbreaking.

the least we can do is just keep talking about it and make people aware that it happens more than we think.

THURSDAY OCTOBER 1.

i think packaging up sold items will always be my favorite part of selling things on the internet.
