Oh, how I love books. I also love the artwork by the talented Black Apple. But the two together? I can't resist! Just bought the adorable print below from her shop. Can't wait to get it and find it a nice home in our house!

New painting
He's also on a 5" x 5" canvas, done with acrylics. Maybe now that I've finished the painting, my brain can obessess about something else....

Support the Tsuru Family
To help raise as much money as possible for the event, he's been drumming up sponsorship from TSURURADIO readers (as well as anyone else he can think of), and how that he's in the final stretch, we decided to put together a grab bag of TSURURADIO Swag!
So... what's in the bag, you ask?
1. Wolf Parade's Apologies To The Queen Mary on Excellent Vinyl!!!
2. Tom Wait's Small Change on Very Good Vinyl!
3. The Cars' Heartbeat City on Very Good Vinyl!
4. A TsuruBride original leather cassette card holder!!!
5. A TSURUFOTO framed original print, "Tsuru & The Bride"!
6. A brand spankin' new Canadian Bacon on DVD
7. Local Columbus, OH band Melty Melty's original CD release (really really good)..
8. A feist, Fleet Foxes, and some swag buttons...
9. A Hula Girl dashboard attachement for your car (because we all need one on our dashboard & he had an extra)!
AND 10...... it all comes in a seriously vintage military style New York Boy Scouts back pack! Yeah, you get the badass bag with everything in it!!!
AAAAAND to top it all off...... FREE SHIPPING ANYWHERE!!!!!!!
Voila!
So in an effort to help out my husband, offer up a chance to my TsuruBride blog readers to win a design before it hits the shop, AND help out a wonderful & worthwhile cause I thought I'd pimp out his auction!!!
HERE NOW!!! HURRY!
There's only 1 DAY LEFT!!!
ALL the money from the winning bid goes DIRECTLY to sponsoring his ride. All you need to do is win the auction, pay him or donate the amount to his page, then he'll ship it out to you immediately. So go check it out!
New friends in the hizzle!
As promised some new lil' guys have finally made it into the shop!
To cuddle up with the panda, beaver and monkey change purses I've added a raccoon - who can be found here.
And a mouse, that can be found here.
I also have finally posted some new blue whale card holders (finally got some new blue leather in, FINALLY!!!). They're swimming around with the silver whales, but are still ready to come with you. Find them here!Monday, May 25, 2009
More custom orders and veggie fun!
So lots of goodness is heading your way this week. I know I've been slow to post recently but that's merely since I've been busy cooking up new goodies! Keep an eye on my shop this week as lots of these new goodies will be heading your way!
But for now, some sharing! I've had a couple custom orders I thought I'd share as I think both are going to making their way into my shop soon.
First up, a smooth chihuahua (the long haired chihuahua needed a friend)....
Next a squirrel! I love his fluffy tail!
By now, you may be noticing that these clutches aren't looking quite as shiny as my regular stuff. Sure they've got a gloss to them, but something is different... And that's because I was finally able to find some pleather that my sewing machine doesn't totally hate! So, along with my leather options I now have some meat-free options - bronze (as the chihuahua), gold (as the squirrel) and below is silver (done up as a spotted weiner dog). As of right now the pleather will only be offered for custom orders, but maybe eventually I'll have time to make some things up to be in stock!
