Quantity and quality are environmental issues. The more we produce, and the worse it’s made, the faster it gets thrown away. Extending the life of what already exists is one of the most effective ways to reduce waste.

We offer repairs because your pieces are meant to stay in rotation. Wear them hard. Fix them when they break. Keep them moving.

For a short window, we will offer a password-protected space on our site. Inside: a selection of one-of-a-kind and limited edition objects made in very small quantities.

Over the last 20 years, we’ve witnessed firsthand what bringing people together through art and creation can do. We’ve seen connection form across differences, joy interrupt hardship, and community evolve in ways that feels deeply human. The system often wants us to believe this kind of work is frivolous, unnecessary, or indulgent, but we know otherwise. The resistance to conform, speaks to who we are, how we choose to live our lives, and what we believe is worth protecting.

Join us at our Grass Valley showroom for our first Block Print workshop. Taught by Utah-based block print artist Mike Petree for an introductory block printing workshop rooted in the fundamentals of relief printmaking. This hands-on class covers carving techniques, design and concept reduction, and both hand-printing and press-printing methods. Students will be guided through the full process—from developing an idea to carving, inking, and pulling finished prints.

Give them something unforgettable, art they can wear, hold, or bring into their home. Something made by human hands, designed to be kept for years.

Give something that brings them back to their favorite version of themselves, the imaginative, mischievous and curious creature inside.

Give them something they’ll admire every day, handmade, versatile, and rooted in honest design.

Whether you are looking for a gift for the dreamer in your life, or fulfilling a dream, these are gifts that inspires wonder. 

The BLAMO onesies aren’t just costumes. They’re a canvas for personality, for play, for expression. What began as one handmade suit from Spencer’s mom has become a collection of designs that continue to grow, just like the people who wear them.

Our handmade shoes are constructed of natural vegetable tanned leather and we want them to be a staple that lasts. Quality leather is a fairly dynamic material, with use, it develops a lovely shine and smoothness called patina creating a signature look specific to wear and use. Proper care for leather shoes ensures their durability and maintains their appearance. 

Our hearts are heavy for those who have lost so much in the recent devastation of the LA fires. People build communities, and communities are what make LA so special. Witnessing the outpouring of support from near and far gives us hope. Rebuilding individual lives, and the city, will take the effort of many. If you have the means, It is never too late to contribute in whatever way you can.
