Cha Cha Cha!
Read moreI just realized this year that we follow the same routine each January and February as we create new work and get ready for an annual wholesale show.

Wouldn’t Have Thought of That!
Read moreFile this under We wouldn’t have thought of that! – the tree topper. We often prattle on about being open to your ideas (which we absolutely are), likely to the point where you’re going, “Ok, ok, we got it, Gatskis.” But we repeat it so often because, just with like our own ideas, we love seeing where they lead. And

The Linchpin
Read moreTrying is the linchpin in our design formula. Perhaps that makes it all seem a little simplistic. But truthfully, for us, it all boils down to trying things when creating new work. “Well, let’s try sketching that out.” “Why don’t we try making that bigger.” “We’ve wanted to try that for years now.” “Let’s just try it, and see how
