BEEN MISSING OUR TREASURES? BLACK FRIDAY WITH US!

11/24/2011

0 Comments

 
Our clothes may still be in storage, but our objects and ephemera--including Navid's impressive collection of pre-Columbian, Native American and tribal treasures--are out for you perusal at Antiques Alley (2000 NE 42nd Ave., on 42nd just north of Sandy, in the HUGE basement of that strange place with an imports store, a salon, a post office, and a pub). We've got two large display cases (just ask the people at the counter to point you in their direction) and everything's 20% off for November.

If you're looking for Christmas gifts in line with those found in our brick and mortar store last year, this is the place to be (HINT: This antique mall has INSANELY interesting and low-priced clothes, if you're looking for a place that's not as picked over as the more popular vintage stores about town). Kind of strange hours (Sunday 12–5 PM, Mon-Fri 9:30–5:30 PM, Saturday 9:30–5 PM) but definently worth the trip. And, if you're looking for a place to deal your goods, the booth and case rentals are cheap!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME?

06/22/2011

1 Comment

 
Today I turned 31. I'd like to say being 30 was the hardest year of my life. Really, though, I'm not sure it's been any harder than the rest, just a different kind of hard. My goals for 31 are to: (a) Rise Golden Rule all phoenix style from the ashes of financial destitution and mismanagement, (b) Figure out how to make a living on my internal skills, ideas and resources rather than relying purely on stuff to earn money, (c) Prioritize art making, personal wellness, home building, and community fostering, and (c) Learn how the fuck to relax, to enjoy being myself in myself, to decrease chaos making, to bond with nature, and to take good care of myself and my dog. In honor of that today I had a sauna, got a massage, went to therapy and played at the park.

In honor of my birthday and my desperate need for a break, I'll be MIA from Golden Rule goings-on until Sunday when the flip begins for Lahaina Alcantara's July showcase. I would love to say I'll be totally off the work grid, but alas I'll be finishing out some lookbook editing, getting the basement put back together after pulling so much stock for the shoot, getting the newsletter ready, building FaceBook events, and strategizing, strategizing, strategizing about how the fuck to finance us through September. But at lest said activities can happen on my own time, and sans the interruption of telephone and email (the iPhone is disconnected for non-payment and I plan to keep it that way for a bit). See you in a few days, and until then, be well. Xoxo.

DAISY GETS HER SUPERMODEL ON!

06/22/2011

0 Comments

 
As one of the last tests of Daisy's fitness for my lifestyle, we took her on a two-day lookbook shoot with seven models and a production assistant. She trooped it like a charm, even getting brave enough to step in a cold river and to hop over logs! The one challenging situation was her need to be in my immediate vicinity frequently put her supermodel legs in front of the camera:

Isn't she beautiful? Such a wonderful dog, never straying from our crew, never wandering out too far on her own, always coming when called, perfectly content to follow us around or wait peacefully in the car with her sand bucket of water (fits right between front seat and her twin-sized futon in the back of the station wagon) or to protect us when approached by scary dudes)
