Springtime weather in our neck of the woods is a mixed bag. Warm and sunny one day, cold and wet the next. If you’re in the mood for some indoor craft projects to pass the rainy days, you should check out our Ojime Buttons. These handcarved wood buttons are great accents on clothing and accessories of all kinds.

We don’t mess around when it comes to our Tucson packing list!
We’re constantly refining and organizing the items, quantities and displays that we bring from year to year.
I’m sure this is no surprise to those of you who get to see our final set-up at the Tucson Gem and Mineral show, but since we just finished our final review of this year’s packing list it seemed appropriate to share this rare glimpse into the process behind the end-result.

Celebrating women around the world, today and every day!

Can you imagine how excited we were when this treasure (the only remaining Tika business card from 2001) made an appearance in the office this week!?! We couldn’t wait to share this gorgeous throwback with the rest of you.

Throwback to fun times in Tucson earlier this month

In honor of #textiletuesday please enjoy this gorgeous embroidered suzani, currently adorning the home of one of our very own Tika girls.

Thanks to all the wonderful folks who came out and showed us so much love in Tucson this year!
We’ll see you next time
