// SOMEWHAT SURFABLE

word on the street ( from our intern Daniel) is that you can surf in your Furnigraphmumbletronic watch, but don't hold us to that...I still wouldn't let yours get wet!

// FURNI X BRUXE T-SHIRT

// GO EUROPE

// LAST 100 ORDERS

Here's a map of where we shipped our last 100 orders, come on Africa..you are lagging behind!

// THANKS FROM FRANCE

It's not everyday that we get thankyou letters for our products, so today's mail was especially awesome when we got a thanks from Caroline in France for the watch she recently received. Merci Caro!!

// FLATBAR FRIDAY

It's really Wednesday, but "FLATBAR WEDNESDAY" didn't have the same ring....regardless we've got a few interns helping us out around the shop and I figured seeing as we have no money to pay them I could bribe them with fun. This is hopefully the first of many obstacles we are gonna make this summer now that I learned how to ghetto weld.

// NEW WATCH - JULY 1ST

// WATCH IN IT'S NATURAL HABITAT

It's so lovely to catch a glimpse of one of our Furni X Raised by Wolves watches lounging about in it's preferred habitat at the beach....it knows not to venture into the waves (it could die, for it is only water "resistant") and admires them from afar. Ahhh Summer. Thanks Dan for the pic to remind us how lame our summer is stuck infront of a desk.
