I've been keeping mum about an exciting new book that's hitting the shelves today! Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to share my journey creating Nostalgia for a new book called, Indie Brands: independent brands that inspire and tell a story.
The book offers a real-world glimpse into the lives of the people behind the brands featured: what they create, the space they work in and the inspiring items they surround themselves with. My creative space and desk (eeek!) and all sorts of personal things that inspire me everyday are featured.
When I saw the completed book, I was excited to discover that two of my personal favorites were also included: Jake Nickell of threadless.com (for the coolest tees, ever!) and Nalden of wetransfer.com (I use this service weekly!).
The video above offers a little more about the book (psst ... can you spot me? Is that a bird standing on my head! ha!). The book is available at book stores or online retailers around the globe. Information on where to purchase a copy can be found here or from the publisher's website (BISPublishers) here.
If you have a chance to read my story, please send me a note and tell me so? I really tried to offer transparency into the creation and everyday life of my work. I'm always inspired by other people's stories, especially as it relates to creativity and perseverance. So I hope my story and experiences with Nostalgia offer something valuable, too.
