I’m a giver. Finding an item that seems perfectly suited for a friend is like happening upon a buried treasure - I can’t pass it up! I buy and give and it doesn’t have to be any one’s birthday or anniversary. (This in no way makes me immune to the talent of taking, by the way).

As an example, this t-shirt designed and made by Supastarr, my newest Etsy find, has "man" written all over it. Four forks. No hidden meaning, just four pieces of flatware printed on a sweatshop free, 100% organic cotton t-shirt. It is hand silkscreened using water-based textile inks. Fabulously original and just the thing for my friend, John.

Supastarr is a husband and wife team - they run a small fair trade coffee shop during the day, and create the green-stuff of their Etsy store at night. The Forked Mens Organic Tee is available in S, M, L, XL for $22.
