Anthropologie !

The Anthropologie store never fails to inspire, not only with their beautiful clothes and products for the home, but also with their innovative displays both inside and outside the store : 

Might need some cushions for the 'hot' seat ! 

Tennents Vital Belfast 2013 !

August is going to be a great month for music here in sunny Belfast !

Wednesday the 14th see's Kings of Leon back with The Vaccines as special guests. Thursday the 15th see's Snow Patrol with a line up of Foy Vance, Kodaline and Jason Mraz. We really enjoyed the Black Keys last year, and already have our tickets for these two shows, it should be a great couple of days !

SURTEX 2013

A big thanks to everyone who came to see us at Surtex, it turned out to be one of our best shows ever !
Our new trend service Oodles Of Doodles was a big success, and got off to a great start at the show. Anyone who missed the chance to see the book at Surtex, will get the chance to see it on our next trip to the US, which will be in early July. We will hopefully be fitting in a trip to the UK as well, at the end of June.
It takes us all day to put the booth together for the show, and this year we took photo's showing the progress through the day :

It takes a while to get the posters to hang correctly, and then all the gaps in the graphics are filled with mocked up products, to show how the artwork can be used. It is a lot of work especially in the build up to Surtex, but we can tell from peoples reactions it is well worth it. A big thanks to Rebecca and Jennifer for making such great mock ups, and a big thank you to Jake in Malaysia for getting the posters printed for us too !

Vintage And Collectibles 3 !

Here are the last photo's of vintage collectibles in that Alladins cave in Stillwater :

Definitely need one of these, surprised no one thought of it sooner !

Not the sort of thing to put in the overhead locker on the flight back home, but what great storage ! 

Crooked Fingers : Your Apocalypse

While surfing some of the newer bands in Itunes, up popped Crooked Fingers ! The latest album is called Break In The Armor, and the more you play it, the more it grows on you !

This first song is a live version of Your Apocalypse :

This next song, She Tows The Line, has been used as a soundtrack on Chuck, a ©Warner Bros TV comedy : 

Enjoy and have a good weekend !
