waiting for my cookies to cool.

So I am waiting for my cookies to cool (as stated) so i decided to post a blog, which i just love doing!
but anyways the first 24 hours of the release of the NEW free idea winter line was great The item i was most nervous about was the hats because i am just never sure of items like that when releasing. BUT! i was easily calmed after the intake of responses i received on the new line. and so far making the snapbacks the best seller out of the first 24 hours. so thanks everyone who picked stuff up. im always really uneasy when it comes down to releasing new stuff. so thanks for making it a good one.

but anyways. im sitting at home in my apartment getting ready to just kick it back by myself and watch some movies.
i just baked 4 dozen cookies which i plan on devouring very shortly and i stopped by Movie Stop to pick up "MALLRATS" and "SLC PUNK"

Expansion

The first piece of the Free Idea winter line is the Logo tee, we are now printing on softer 100% cotton tees that have a very smooth true to size fit. The tee is White with a dark yellow fill with a black outline. very bold and straight forward.





The second piece added to the winter line is a classic style snapback hat. I wanted to make my first hats snapback because they reminded me so much of the 90's when everyone had them in there favorite basketball team color way, When you where the coolest kid on the block if you had a Chicago Bulls one during the Michael Jordan era.
the hats are a dark black with a royal blue brim,eyelets and top button. the under brim is a light grey, the logo is embroidered with a 50/50 cotton poly thread to insure a stronger stitch.




The third piece added to the Free Idea winter line is the Free Idea " Piazza" 4 button v neck Cardigan.
Comes in a solid black with a light yellow and dark grey print. This item is perfect for any occasion, from a lazy around the house item to a out on the town piece.
There is piece is a One size fits most. it will fit larger an more loosely if you are smaller framed and fill out more depending on your frame size. Made with a 50/50 jersey blend this cardigan is very warm and very light weighing in at just under 10 ounces.



All Items are now available on the Free Idea online store (see links on the right)
And will be available in select Free Idea retailers next Friday.

join the system or start from scratch? ..i think i will start from scratch.

If you have not picked up on it in the past 2 months, Free Idea has been gone. Yup gone! as in not keeping much updates with blogging, very minimal post on the myspace page, and very rarely posting on twitter or even updating the facebook page.
I have just been sitting back and watching other lines, seeing what they do how they run. how they stay as a whole, some of them are doing it legit, some are doing it under the table. in the big take of this I figured out what i actually want to do with Free Idea,
for a while i was just coming out with t shirts, and it felt like thats all i wanted to do. but after sitting back and watching everyone else. If you want to make it in this. you have to step it up more. After all of it, i came to the conclusion that i do NOT want to just be a t shirt line, i want to build free idea into a full brand.

...and i could not be happier about this decision.

With the 10th installment of the Free Idea brand. the line is going to have some new items added

1 new tee design
1 hat
1 cardigan
each of these items will be perfectly matched up in color so if desired you can wear them all as 1 outfit.

and everyone loves matching up there clothes.!


release is set in 2 1/2 weeks

you will be able to view the winter line before it releases on the blog, as well as about 15-20 other blogging sites.
