And I do mean "peek." Given the aforementioned lack of picture-taking at the San Fran gift show, I don't have many pictures to share, but now that I've unpacked, I can at least share some images from catalogs so you get a little hint of what's coming. The list of orders is lengthy, and I'm looking forward to all the new arrivals over the next couple months.
So, let's see, in no particular order....
Recycled/Repurposed items:
necklaces made with vintage costume jewelry, iPad cases made from men's flannel shirts
wallets made from maps
Artsy/Craftsy supplies:
washi tape, rubber stamps, patterned tape, crafty books, felt garland kits, origami paper, handmade paper, ribbon
Paper Products:
French notecards, Japanese journals, notepads, stationery sets
recipe cards, mini address books, journals (and some new dayplanner possibilities for 2013), post-it notes,
My old boss used to have a friend who would give her gifts of good taste, that my boss would end up liking so much that she'd order them for the shop. I have a similar friend, and I was glad to find the covered journal she gave me at Christmas.
Artisan Creations (usually ordered from the person who made it, as opposed to mass-produced):
letterpress notecards, steampunk tarot cards, filigree silver necklaces, beaded/vintage remixed earrings,
bird and chicken dish towels
Fun things we couldn't resist:
felt crowns, insulated lunch totes, Hello Kitty phone charms, felt bird ornaments, feather ornaments, mini glass vases, mini bird nests and eggs
And I'm sure there's more but now it is reduced to scribbles and numbers on purchase orders...
