Busy, busy, busy!

It may seem like Kristen and I have been quiet lately. However, I assure you we've been busy little bees. We are shifting gears a bit, though.

Since our local -- and very beloved -- hookah lounge/café of sorts/music venue, Chronic Town, is poised to reopen next week, we've been helping them prepare for the big day. The dear establishment has been closed for 15 months due to a fire and other hang-ups; thus, we want to pitch in as much as possible. They do employ me after all!

It is also possible we have subconscious ulterior motives. (I guess they are no longer subconscious as I just acknowledged them. Oops!) We are proud to be organizing and hosting our first craft show, Which Craft?, at Chronic Town on April 25th! We are so excited to be doing this. It gives us a chance to meet other crafters, enjoy other works, and create a sense of community in our small town. If you're in the State College, PA area, please stop by! And here's hoping it goes off without a hitch!

But never fear, we have not neglected the Past & Pending for other crafty people and other projects. We recently listed some springtime men's items. The wonderful Jesse modeled for us again AND we got the ever-charming Corey to strike a pose. Talk about making love to the camera!

Workaholics

Kristen and I had our second full-blown photo shoot last night with our favorite photographer, Alice Teeple. We had some lads of ours, Jesse & Corey, model our menswear and Kristen was a champ modeling for the women's clothing. Unfortunately, I had to sit this round out as I am still recovering from a terrible head cold. (I've been such the little old lady, carrying around stashes of hard candies for my coughing fits.)

Still, the shoot had to go on! The gang knocked out some great photos for some really fun new items! Plus, I had the chance to do serious organizing of our inventory. This means more items more quickly. Kristen and I are really excited to post all our fantastic finds on Etsy as soon as we can. Look for them in the next few days!

For updates and information when new items are posted, don't forget to be our fan on facebook and on twitter. All comments, questions, and concerns are welcome!
