This bracelet makes me think that Etsy-ians might be the ones to blame for all the gutted payphones in Bed-Stuy.
I just ordered a bunch of these to give as Christmas presents. Gifty gifty! But I’m only giving them to people who give ME things. So pony up!
What’s with all the floppy disk nostalgia? I guess they’re becoming kind of nouveau pop-art icons—hello, cassette tapes!—but I admit that I don’t really get it. And, um, weren’t they square? Feels wrong to let the iPhone dictate the shape of the floppy. Even if this is an iPhone case. The floppy came first!

Rolodex cards with “slight yellowing” are reborn as bookplates on Etsy. Kind of like making buggy whips out of recycled TV antennas, no?

I just discovered BraveMoonman’s site on Etsy. Amazingly, these are not the first felt floppies I’ve seen. Felt reincarnations = all the rage!
