Deviled Eggs in Aspic- Not So Timeless

This new slim wallet series has made me hungry.

J-E-L-L-O W-A-L-L-E-T-S

From the Big Boy BBQ Book. Lots of recipes for rabbit and lobster. Classy.

Mexican Breakfast, BBQ fruit, and Pies.

My favorite one is" "Husbands become the experts and do the barbecuing. Wives take it easy. All they have to do is make the salad and desert. The kitchen stays clean. The house remains neat. There is almost no wash-up afterwards."

Secret, once yummy, recipes inside. Learn the essential skill of putting spare ribs on a Spit.

I heart San Francisco

Because I'm feeling the love for my city lately, I've listed another stack of San Francisco Neighborhood Slim Wallets in my Etsy shop.

And that's right- another photo of another stack of Muni Fast Pass Wallets. I've finally listed them in my Etsy Shop. This is the last month of the paper Fast Pass so let's celebrate the only good thing about SF public transportation- The Fast Pass!

If you have any old Muni Fast Passes you no longer want, please feel free to donate them to me (or we could trade for some oranges from my tree or a beer)... Let me know in the comments section and I'll get in touch ;)

Jacques Cousteau, Ghosts and the Frozen City.

I had my 199th Etsy sale on Friday (pats self on back)- a slim wallet of Rome, sold minutes before I went to lunch at an Italian restaurant. do do do do, do do do do.

I have 2 more custom orders to complete and restock the inventory of the 6 shops that carry my wallets before I get to take a break from making wallets (above) and move focus to the band... Hungry, Hungry Ghost.

Until then- more sewing, cold hands, tired fingers, 11 hour work days, and song practice on lunch breaks.

Capsule Design Fair

Look for Heathered at:

I'll be in Booth #8, on Octavia between Hayes and Fell.

This event is about Independent Design, not "discount brand-name shopping or hippy craft browsing" (not that there's anything wrong with hippies). It celebrates the creative core of local individuals that are the artisans of our time. I'm honored to be a part of it.

Neighborhood (#4)

I just made a new/old wallet series of SF neighborhoods. Each wallet has a different grouping of San Francisco neighborhoods. When you move to a new neighborhood, you make it your own but don't always forget about your old hood so your current one, depending on how far you moved, becomes a bit bigger- that's why the "Haight Wallet" sometimes will include the Sunset or West Add.

I've also found a few handmade things that incorporate someone's personalized map of San Francisco.

Infinite City: A San Francisco Atlas by Rebecca Solnit

Gangs of San Francisco - awesome 1800's symbols from neighborhood gangs of sf.

Speaking of The Haight, The Chutes seems like an odd thing to form a gang around but maybe it was just that dangerous. This excerpt is from the GoSF page: "The Chutes opened in 1895 on Haight Street between Cole and Clayton streets. The main attraction was a water ride in which daring patrons careened in an uncontrolled flat-bottomed boat down a 350 foot water flume, hitting a pond at up to 60 miles per hour. The park also boasted a merry-go-round, a zoo and a shooting range."

The Green Zebra

Now you can find my slim wallets at The Green Zebra in The Crocker Galleria (50 Post St, San Francisco, California 94104).

They're an eco-friendly, fashion-forward handmade shop in Downtown San Francisco. Green Zebra's mission is to get beyond the hippy-chic vibe of eco fashion and their target audience is a working professional, 25-45 years old, that wants to live a fashionable and sustainable life 24/7 and the SF tourist.

New Postcard Wallets in the shop soon

Here's a sample of what the new vintage postcard wallets look like. They're all sent to SF from Europe in the 70's. I love every part of them but the formal addresses are my favorite.

15 New Credit Card Wallets at Urban Bazaar

A friend called asking for 2 card wallets because she keeps loosing her ID and credit cards when she goes out dancing so, last weekend, I made 15 new "going out" wallets for Urban Bazaar. 25 more are ready to be sewn tomorrow night for this weekend's Alamo Square Flea Market.
