Positive Is How I Live

Its sort of funny how in my last post I said "we love New England weather and everything that comes with it."  A couple of weeks of sunshine, rum drinks and sailing made me realize I left out the "except winter" jab in that sentence.  When we left St. John it was sunny and around 80 degrees.  Upon touch down in Boston it was 11 degrees and according to the cab driver, "You very lucky! Make home with no snow problem!"  Very lucky indeed...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amidst the beautiful beaches, rum and fun, and views from our house overlooking the islands as far as I could see, it all became pretty clear.  Live life to the fullest and each day will be big and beautiful.

Beyond Tomorrow

Sun come up, time to shine

Fill that cup, rum time

High in sky, time to dine

Big white plate, fish and lime

Sun go set, watch and smile

Pink, orange, blue linger for a while

Behind the islands, down a mile

Such a good day, don't want it to end - denial

Moon come up, see it glow

What in my cup, nobody know

Overhead, tiny breezes blow

Big bowl before bed, chef says eat slow

Sun come up, watch band play

Fill that cup, mind soiree

High in sky, sail on ocean waves

Big smile on face, big beautiful day

Sun go set, day erase

Wispy clouds, purples fill space

Behind the palms, shadow on my face

Warm afternoon, this is the place

Moon come up, day now night

Eyes adjust, lizards by moonlight

Big Dipper so close, equator sight

Stay beyond tomorrow, I think I might

Knotcation

We're heading to St. John and the BVIs!!!  While we love New England weather and everything that comes with it, January is all about recharging the batteries and setting our sites on the warm months ahead.  There's no better of a place to do that than in the Caribbean!  We think of it as our second office outside of Boston and can't wait to Get Knotty.  Have a great rest of the month and please note that all orders placed between Saturday January 8th and Monday January 24th will be shipped out on Tuesday January 25th.

2011: Ready or Knot, Here We Come!

I hope everyone had a fantastic New Year celebration and wherever that celebration was, you all Got Knotty!  2010 for us was a big year; a stepping stone and huge push to get the Knot name and lifestyle out into the public eye.  Parties, events, collaborations, more parties and more events was the name of the game.  We met some amazing new people, discovered some unreal new music and helped out some great organizations and charities.  Check out our Facebook page for some of my favorite jams and group shout outs.

In 2011 we're making a few changes.  Our site will be updated a bit to make your shopping experience even easier.  I'll be posting more pictures and a bunch more music.  To our portfolio we'll be adding kids sizes, new products, pup accessories and lots of new belt designs.  We're also creating a belt that is a combination of grosgrain ribbon and leather, something that is new and hasn't been done before.  Below is a preview with our Native American and Four Majors belt designs:

Native American with Knot logo stamp

100% Genuine Leather Backing

Hand Stitched Feathered Tab

The Four Majors

Can you name all of the trophies?

For the upcoming Spring season, we're looking to get into some stores across the country.  If you know of any stores or boutiques that our American Made Knot belts would look good in, email me at "nick@knotbeltco.com" and I'll send you a discount code for you and your friends.   Lastly, be on the lookout for information about our annual "Spring for Knot!" party and have a great 2011!

Home for the Holidays - Winter Playlist 2010

It's been a crazy past few weeks here at Knot.  We've been processing tons of orders and stuffing each package with holiday love, cheer and some fantastic looking belts.  Believe it or Knot, we too are stepping away from the office here in Boston and heading home for Christmas.  If you're doing the same and meeting up with friends and family back home, be sure to check out this mix of techno remixes and electronic jams.  They will definitely get you through all of those delays at the airport and heavy, snowy traffic.  I'd like to give a shout out to my boy Doug over at Fresh New Tracks where I got a lot of these songs.  Enjoy and safe travels!

'Tis the Season to be Knotty
