Virtual Studio Sale This Weekend!

It's customer appreciation weekend at Rebeccahaas.com!  I'm offering a virtual studio sale to all of you who aren't close enough to come to my actual studio sale - 20% off plus free priority shipping on all orders placed this Saturday and Sunday.  Just mention the word APPRECIATION in your order email.

And here's a little reminder about my actual studio sale!  It's tomorrow from 12-5pm.  Please tell all your friends in Vermont!!

I love these animal prints by Sharon Montrose at Animal Print Shop.  The animals are so unique, and I love the minimalist backdrops.  Check them out here.

Studio Tour Sneak Peek - Shipping Department

So I have finished one small corner of my studio re-organization - my shipping department!  It's a big step up from the shambles of my old shipping departments in their various previous locations.  Back when I lived in Brooklyn my shipping materials were relegated to one half of the drawer under our TV in our apartment.  During that incarnation of my "shipping department" I received a memo from Fred Segal in Los Angeles stating their shipping protocol, and instructing me to post the memo in my shipping department.  TH and I had a good chuckle over that one, and since then my "shipping department" has been a bit of a running joke.

  It's so great to have a designated wrapping and boxing area that doesn't have to compete for space with the rest of my work surfaces.  Oh, shipping department, you've come a long way baby!

Lunch Break

Just taking a quick break from a much needed day of studio cleanup!  I'm having so much fun getting organized and decorating for my Holiday Studio Sale this Sunday!  There's nothing like inviting people over to get one to clean up one's act!  

Chicken tacos are one of my regular go-to quick lunches.  It's just meat from a rotisserie chicken, lightly fried up corn tortillas, fresh avocado, and home made tomatillo salsa (although store-bought salsa verde works too!).

Once I finish with my major cleaning and organizing extravaganza I'll finally be able to post a studio tour, so stay tuned for that in the next couple of days!

But for now. . . tacos.

Last Holiday Wholesale Order Out!

I am taking a moment to enjoy a nice big happy sigh as my last wholesale holiday order of the year is out the door, winging its way to Cog & Pearl in Brooklyn, NY.   Cog & Pearl is an absolutely fantastic store with lots of unique housewares and gifts all carefully hand selected by the owners (husband and wife team Seth and Kristin), and carefully handcrafted by independent designers.  Here's a small sampling of the pieces that I just sent their way.  

I love the simple geometrics and the cool winter colors that they selected for their store.  If you are ever in Park Slope, Brooklyn, I highly recommend stopping in there.  You won't regret it, but your credit card might!

Dear Hancock Launch!

My friends Wendy and Earnest are the husband and wife team behind this lovely and whimsical new greeting card and stationary design studio.  I am so excited for them that they have finally launched the Dear Hancock website!  They bring both of their fine arts backgrounds to the table as they translate and reshape them into the art of correspondence and the handwritten letter.  Click on any of the images below to link directly to their site!

Congratulations Wendy and Earnest!

Just Shipped - Custom Book Jewelry Box

I just shipped out this custom jewelry box made from a hardback copy of one of the Harry Potter books.  The customer sent me this book specifically to make for her niece to keep all her treasures hidden in plain sight in her college dorm room.  What better hiding place than a book for a dorm room!?  Here are some pictures of the finished product.  I'm happy with how it came out!

I've still got time to take a few more orders for Christmas presents.  If you are interested in ordering one please check out this listing on FIddleheads For Fiona for details.
