Introducing a few of our pieces from our fail+CANOE jewelry collaboration. fail+CANOE is a collaboration between Austin artists Christine Fail (Fail) and myself (Canoe). Combining our shared love of the dramatic Texas landcsape, fail+CANOE presents a rustic yet refined collection of hammered brass and leather jewelry for both men and women. Available in our Canoe shop.

Canoe in Tribeza Magazine

Ben and I were totally flattered to be included in the April Issue of Tribeza magazine. You can read the full article about Canoe online here or, if you're local to Austin, you can pick up a copy of Tribeza at most shops in town. Valerie, Lauren, and Avalon are wonderful and we had a great time working with them. It's our first print Canoe press, so we are really pumped!

The style issue features so many amazing designers in Austin, including our friends at Public School, who have a killer fashion spread. Just check out Justin's amazing hair in this photo by Cody Hamilton. In my opinion, all men should style their hair this way. And wear bowties.

We've been slowly adding more and more pieces to the Canoe webshop, but get ready for a big update at the end of next week (including the much anticipated boots). Our Spring/Summer line is almost ready, and just in time. Temperatures here in Austin are starting to hit the high 80s. We're also working on some big events, including a Winter Sale and a super-top-secret-you-won't-want-to-miss Fall event. That's all I can say, really. I have probably said too much. This message will self-destruct.

New Wood burned in the Shop!

New mini apple boxes in the shop, available in 2 different styles. Perfect for a wedding ring or an emergency pill. The size of these will melt your cold, cold heart, I swear.

Also up are the new wood burned Salt Dishes. They can be used for so many different things, but I have mine storing sea salt on the table. The salt dishes are available in two different patterns. Like the mini apple boxes, these are also wood burned here in our Austin studio, so no two are exactly a like.

Huge Shop Update!

Finding our Way

Upon arriving back in Oakland, Ben surprised me with a braille map of our home. I love it! Our house is that small box in the center, which is incredibly hard to see in this photo. Very apt as today is all about braille--I'll be working on a braille order for my favorite online eco-shop, Branch. I've been thinking about getting a braille printer lately, and this piece may have pushed me over the edge.

Back on the shop: Growth Charts! Get them while their hot and in stock. Also, expect some more braille blank notebooks as soon as tomorrow.
