Etsy Sale #1!

I'm very excited to announce that today House of Defarge saw it's very first sale on Etsy!

I was hoping my first sale would be a Kundra Wrap but was just as thrilled that someone wanted to give a beautiful Mid Century Modernist Sterling Silver Cancer Pendant a good home. I put together a much smaller version of my hand knit packaging except using linen instead of burlap.

Despite today's rain in San Francisco, I rushed out to post the item to it's new owner. Of course when I was able to make the trip the wind and rain really ramped up. Paying far more attention to my umbrella blowing apart than my footing while walking by Alta Plaza Park, I did what I warn all my visiting friends about: I stepped right into the viscous ooze that leaks out of the park onto the sidewalk. This mixture of rain, vegetable matter and lord knows what else is the slipperiest stuff I have ever encountered. You could be completely aware of walking on it and still eat it. Which is what I did. I took a dramatic digger and ended up covered in the primordial park ooze.

Just in time to go to the Marina post office, were the hair is quaffed and the collars are always popped.

I waited in a long line, looking like someone threw me out of a moving truck and was still excited.
