So long, farewell...

With a heavy heart we have come to Kirk's last day with us as the manager of our SF store. He's headed off to the opposite end of the country and we're very sad to see him go, but glad that he'll be having new adventures. He's left an indelible mark (literally and figuratively) and we couldn't have made the move to Portland without knowing we'd be leaving our store in his capable hands. We can't thank him enough for all his hard work and dedication. It's been a real pleasure to work with him and he will be truly missed. But San Francisco's loss will be New Haven's gain, so get in touch if you have fun Connecticut tips or a job for our soon-to-be transplant.

Good luck Kirk and happy trails!

Renegade Craft Fair in SF this weekend

The Renegade Craft Fair is hitting town this weekend and it looks to be a good time for all! Our very own Alexa (you may know her from her lovely embroidered buttons and you'll soon be seeing her regularly at the store on Thursdays and Fridays) will be there as Burgundy & Brown at her booth with Small Stump (along the left side of the pavilion). Be sure to say hi to them and our other wonderful vendors who will be there: Big Stone Head, Blissful, Chikabird, Honeylux, Mittenmaker, and Sycamore Street Press.

Here are some of the cute new Burgundy & Brown buttons that Alexa will be selling. And not to fret if you can't make it this weekend as she'll be bringing in her leftover goodies to sell at the store!
