This week is Earth Week and here at EB, we’ve been trying to do things a little more “blue” – Mother Earth is made up of 71% water, after all! That being said, it was great to see the Macy’s team moving mulch and planting flowers in Union Square today. Great work, guys!
The backs of their shirts say “Volunteering is ALWAYS in Fashion” – how cute?!
After a meeting earlier this week, we went exploring in the Mission District of San Francisco. This particular area is named for the Mission San Francisco de Asis, San Francisco’s oldest standing building, which it houses. We were taken a-back by one of our stops in particular, the awe-inspiring Heath Ceramics.
Heath Ceramics was founded by Edith Heath in 1948, following a pottery show in SF’s Legion of Honor. Edith’s pieces were designed to be fired in a single kiln, at below-normal temperatures. This process saved energy and produced a more durable ceramic product – making ceramics history!
The original Heath Ceramics factory is in Sausalito, but we loved every moment of our visit to the Tile Showroom in the Mission – right down to the Blue Bottle Coffee served in an in-house cafe. If you’re ever in the neighborhood, check it out!
Of course we were in love with the blue dinnerware set!
On this sunny Friday in Union Square, we’re loving this funky, yet cute outfit by Venezuelan blogger Daniela Ramierz of Nany’s Klozet. Oh – and of course we’re digging the color of her skirt!
Have a great weekend!! – Emerging Blue
PUBLIC is a fun and colorful San Francisco-based bicycle and gear company. We recently visited their pop-up store in the Harrington Gallery, located at 599 Valencia Street in the Mission, and were seriously impressed by their design. Not only are PUBLIC bikes sweet on the eyes – they’re also fun and easy to ride.
We were instantly enamored by the bikes, the seemingly endless accessory options and even fell in love the with PUBLIC Works prints (PUBLIC bike artwork designed by 27 different artists).
Check out the rest of our photos from our trip!
Loved these bike accessories.
We want to line our own walls with these graphic PUBLIC Works prints!
And if you didn’t want a PUBLIC bike already, here’s a cute video about PUBLIC’s mission and the idea behind their company:
See you on the road!
This Friday, with a warm breeze wafting in through our office windows, spring is in the air! We’re loving this spring-y pastel look by blogger Shea Marie of Peace Love Shea.
Have a great weekend!
