Right now I’m in San Francisco for the first time and I’m attending Alt SF! I’m no doubt wandering around trying to find my place and get the courage to talk to other attendees. I hope it’s going well. I will fill you in on everything when I return.

When I bought my ticket I started thinking of business card ideas. I already had the cards I was planning on using but I wanted a little gift that would represent what I do. After much thought I decided on California shaped pins with hearts over San Francisco.

I hand cut 75 CA shapes out of a softer wood, I sanded them, wood burned the hearts onto them as well as alt sf ’13 and it’s limited edition #. Next I squeezed on my blog address to the side and then glued the pin back on. Phew! I was hoping to make even more but time just didn’t allow so if you’re one of the first 75 people I meet at alt you’ll get one of these special pins. Yeah!
