The Wonder of the Magic Mouse

It was like walking into a candy store for Apple Junkies! The bright lights, the high energy and all the newest gadgets to enhance my designing pleasure. Just before we were about to depart to devour some California Pizza Kitchen, my eyes fell upon the glorious Magic Mouse! Lo & Behold! The splendor of a sleek and seamless wireless mouse that works on virtually any surface. It responds to my touch to scroll horizontally, vertically and diagonally in any direction without the problematic scrolly ball. All this in one tiny hyper-responsive little device that fits so perfectly under the palm of my hand thanks to the technology of Blue Tooth and the Multi-Touch innovation of the iTouch. It’s the world’s first multi-touch mouse and Pool is the proud owner of 2 of them to make life that much more efficient.

POOL PARTNERS

It’s official.

Kris and I are officially partners in crime at pool. After 4 months of working hard to get the new shop up and running and creating our own distinctive space, we decided it would benefit us both if I had a little more equity in the business.

I’ve learned so much working with both Kris and Neil at Creative Conspiracy. When I showed up at their door in 2002 as a young pup straight out of College from Minnesota, I had no idea as to what the future would hold or what I would end up doing. I have so much gratitude for all I’ve learned and to all the great people and clients I have worked with.

Kris and I will continue to work together on projects and use each other as sounding boards as we continue to evolve at pool. I look forward to the adventures ahead of us and to working side-by-side Kris.

Always keep moving forward – Always keep things fresh and fluid.

WELCOME TO THE POOL

The transition has been exciting and a great learning curve for us all. Cara and I have been working our tails off to get the new shop up and running and keep work flowing. It has all come together. We’re excited for the next chapter— working with all of our great clients and meeting new ones yet to come.

Thank you to all who have been incredibly supportive and to Neil, it has been a great journey— I look forward to working with you on your new venture!

JAKI’S EYE MAKEUP REMOVER CLOTH

We just got the Jaki’s Eye Makeup Remover package hot off the press. This is a very soft makeup remover cloth that’s gentle on the eyes and easy to stuff in your bag and go. Keep the smudgies away.
We printed our Jaki girl up in two different colorways to bring some more appeal to the clip strip hanging system. There’s no difference between two. Are you a warm tone or a cool tone?

At the moment they can be found at Nature’s Oasis in Durango, Colorado.
