I know we've said this over and over again, but one of the joys of owning a store (and one of the main reasons we do what we do) is being able to work with and promote all of our favorite artists, designers and makers. We are huge fans of Mark Giglio's work, and were lucky enough to include some of his amazing wooden dolls and textiles in our pop-up shop last month. And as we speak, he is downstairs in our shoppe gallery working his magic and installing what is going to be a kick-ass show! There will be painted kokeshi dolls, wooden masks, custom textiles... we can hardly wait.

Please join us on Friday evening from 6-8 at the shoppe to celebrate Mark and check out his amazing art!

Just to give you a little taste of what his work looks like, here is an image of the "sun shrine" he created for Loose Leaf. How amazing is that?
