A new home for Tangerine Treehouse!

I have finally finished redesigning my website! A sparkling new design that integrates all of my metalwork projects and ties it all in with my love of cycling and traveling. I'm really thrilled with how it turned out and can't wait for you to check it out!


I am also hereby discontinuing this blog. I will keep it up for some time, for the archives, but I will only be blogging on the new site now. Please join me over there!

I am also tidying up a few other aspects of my online presence. My small shop at BigCartel is being closed today, so please redirect your links: Custom Headbadges and the Bike Mustache.

Thanks everyone! This is an exciting change for me and I hope to see you all on the new site!

Holidays, Here We Come...

Thanksgiving is only a few days away, and they're forecasting snow for Portland tomorrow, so I'm thinking about the holidays all of a sudden. If you are too, here's some information you'll want to have...

Holiday Specials

To kick off the holidays, I'll be running a few specials over in my etsy shop.

From November 26 through November 30, purchase $180 worth of jewelry or headbadges from my etsy shop, and receive a FREE pair of Seedlets earrings (your choice of seed). All orders will also ship with FREE SHIPPING.


Holiday Events

This year, I will only be participating in one Holiday Craft Show... BikeCraft. I'll be there with headbadges, the Bike Mustache, and some bike-touring-themed goodies. If you're in or near Portland, Oregon during the weekend of December 4 and 5, I invite you to stop by, say hi, and take home some handcrafted goodness. The show runs from 10am-6pm both days.


Holiday Order Deadlines

If you're ordering gift items from me, please take note of these deadlines. I need to have orders placed by these dates in order to be able to ensure they are delivered by Christmas day (and still be able to enjoy my own holidays).

December 9 - Last Day to place orders for Custom work (this includes headbadges)

December 18 - Last Day to place orders for items in stock (after this date, we'll have to look into expedited shipping options and I may not be able to guarantee a before-Christmas delivery)


Thanks everyone - and have a happy holiday season!

Le Unicorn

Before packing up my studio, I crammed in a half dozen new pieces... including a new headbadge for my friend Jayme. (Who paid me in trade with the greatest Bike Burrito ever - photos coming soon.)

Mustache on yer Bike

I'm not really one for following trends. But, I have to admit that I've been enjoying the silliness of the mustache trend that's running rampant on Etsy right now. Russ and I were giggling the other night over beers about how fun it would be to put a mustache on a bike - and, well, I just had to run with it.

Introducing... Mustache on yer Bike. Sure, your bicycle has personality, but does it have enough personality to sport a 'stache?
