San Francisco Is Calling Us...


KenKen Ramen pop-up restaurant in the The Mission. Only on Mondays, KenKen takes over Panchita's. Love this
concept and yes, totally worth the wait, again.

We were out in San Francisco for a day a few weeks ago for Renegade. This time, we
had a bit more time check out some great shops and restaurants,spend some quality
time with our California cousins and get some really fun and cool work done - more on
that soon!


Unfortunately, it was too dark to take pictures, but one of the best part of the trip was
dinner at Hogs & Rocks in The Mission, San Francisco's first ham and oyster bar.
Great food, atmosphere, and drinks- it was a super place to make new friends! Cannot
wait til the next trip out to San Francisco!




On our way to Muir Woods and the  kinda-touristy-but-still-very-charming Sausalito, we got to see this breathtaking
view of the Golden Gate Bridge.



If you like Americana and one of a kind Japanese jeans, this amazing shop Revolver is for you. Really cool shop.
And the owners, who grew up in Japan, are the masterminds behind the Ken Ken pop up Ramen shop!



Kabuto Japanese Restaurant on Geary. Tiny little place with the freshest, most delicate sushi.


Viracocha in The Mission. Great shop. It's a mix of vintage typewriters (they even repair them), art, books, gifts, and
community events. Definitely love this shop.



Love all the reclaimed woodwork on the walls. And, this guy was just practicing piano while we were looking around!


Sunset Beach. Beautiful to see the ocean.


826 Valencia. Part pirate store, part creative writing center. This is our role-model shop.


Chinese Buddhist church in The Mission. Subtle.

Factory 20 Wish List



Factory 20's vintage furniture shop in NYC


Not sure what's more inspiring - the gorgeous product photography or the vintage items
themselves. Based in Virginia, Factory 20 is a "design collective" that salvages and
reclaims vintage industrial furniture. Their collection is handsome and just conveys a
really strong message that thoughtful design, quality materials and strong craftsmanship
lasts. Really want to visit this shop in person!

Fantastic design work from London illustrator Owen Gildersleeve. By experimenting and
texturing with different materials and techniques he creates beautiful 2D and 3D results.

Tamar Mogendorff's World

Love this whimsical world that Brooklyn artist Tamar Mogendorf has created. Her use of
natural and raw textiles and the muted palette gives a really grown up twist to the heirloom
stuffed doll.

Chris Kenny Paper Maps

Amazing paper scultpture maps from London artist Chris Kenny. His work can be seen
at England Gallery - really wish we could see it in person. With just simple strips of paper,
he's created beautiful texture, colour, and shape.  "He produces an unexpected kind of
poetry with his three-dimensional ‘drawings’ and constructions made from twigs, fragments
of maps and strips of found text

Japanese Washi Tape DIY Project



This project seriously only took 5 minutes! We're not great with flowers, so we made our old vase into a candy jar!

Just found this simple project for Japanese tape from designer Elizabeth Goodman.
Love how she transforms these simple glass vases.

New Toy Gallery!!!



Fruit stand back in May...

If you've been to our shop, you know how often we rearrange and change our space
around (and we do this at home, too!)  We do this mainly because it's our goal to have
a rolling inventory where we always order different products. Therefore, our display and
storage needs change weekly. But, we're especially proud of our new Toy Gallery Wall!
We broke down the fruit stand and used the individual pieces to create a wall suspension
system to display out collectible toys. Kinda proud of us right now!


Today, we have a new Toy Gallery Wall
