Happy Friday!

Happy Friday, guys!

А month intense with events, personalities and ideas is alsmost gone.
We had a week of cold and rain but summer is about to kick in real big time. The enormous furry ball of a cat at home doesn't like this.
Summer is lazy and smells like gin. We unlike summer are dilligent and hard-working and dedicated to a cause. 

July Morning next week? You up for it?

Gin + July Morning is a combo solid enough to result in a wave of intoxi... aahhhh... inspiration.
You behave now and we promise to reward you with some new designs. Our grain of salt :)

Off to weekend celebrations now!

Etsy Craft Party Photos

Hello guys!

We are back with the aftermath from the Etsy Craft Party.
It was a great day! We had fresh local artists, exchanged new ideas, and enjoyed some well-earned cool drinks in the garden of Art Hostel Sofia.
Many kids attended the event with their parents and contributed to a friendly and easy-going atmosphere. The handmade crowns and moustaches were good enough to bring smiles on people's faces.

All the participants and guests seemed satisfied. That will be a firm base for future events.
Well in, ladies and gentlemen! Thank you all!

Keep Calm and Be Patient

Hey, hey how are you guys!
Hope everything is well with all of you!

We are eager to start with today's news. 

The morning started with a phone call informing us that there's a delivery guy in front of our door with package from USA. Wow, we flew down the stairs - 100 % convinced that it was the DIY projects craft supplies from Etsy for the Craft Party. And we were right but instead of receiving a box of supplies we were instructed to go to the Customs Office and were awarded a bunch of papers. Yes, sometimes you have to keep calm and be patient and we know that the patience could be key. So, tomorrow we will go to them Customs Office to complete the quest. You should expect the results revealed some time tomorrow afternoon. 

The other important news from today is that the Etsy Craft Party poster and flyer designs are ready.
Soon you will find our flyers around popular spots in Sofia.

Now, here it is. Have a look and share your thoughts with us.
