June 2007 apiary at the stationery show
Boy, did we have fun in New York! Once again, it was a great show. We met so many friendly folks from around the country. We were in awe as we wandered the aisles — there are so many amazing staionery designers out there! Our chandelier stole the show. We were ready to auction it off on the last day, but instead, we directed interested parties to Urban Outfitters ($36! What a steal...) |

Let them eat cake! Here's another sneak peak from our new collection. Very fancy gold and sweet pink suitable for the modern day Marie Antoinette. And even sweeter... the cupcakes from Yum!
