So the Liquid Glass craze has truly been crazy. We sold out our original amount in about a day and a half. We felt bad for those who hadn't gotten any so we made a second set. That's now gone too. The last orders are shipping today and tomorrow.
But now the Cloud Poopers are going to get a chance to order. The art was sent to the Queen of Cloud Poop yesterday and she's just making some final tweeks.
In the meantime, we continue to send out more Thinking Putty to retail stores around the country (and a few in Canada!) and are hard at work on our new puttyworld.com website! A big and really fun contest will be involved in the launch of the new site, so we're working out the details of that as well.
Just to keep up with the craziness, we've also been unpacking our new office and working to beautify the space. It's slow going...we'd like to call it a work in progress. One exciting development on that front is that we were contacted by an artist, Alexander Ross, who shared with us that he's used Thinking Putty in some of his oil paintings and photography. This is one of our faves:
That will be up on our wall in a pretty frame in about a week. Pictures of our brand new office to come.
And if that wasn't enough, we're hard at work on this awesome new project that Firebox UK is releasing this summer. We cannot wait to get one ourselves! Check out Putty Monsters:
It's a great beer and worth seeking out. It's widely available in my hometown of Buffalo, New York, but as for Geneva, you may need to ask one of the stores that carry Lake Placid in Geneva (Wegman's, Byrne Dairy, Halsey's, Tops, Fastrack) why they don't have the new seasonal yet, and they'll contact Lake Placid's distributors (Wright-Wisner, I believe, serves the Rochester area). Sometimes it takes a little kick in the pants from customers to get the retailers to order a new seasonal! You could also take a trip to Rochester if you don't feel like waiting. I made a few phone calls - I'll let you know what I find out.
