The collections are based on vintage typography, eye charts and conversation bubbles — images that are instantly identifiable but unexpected on soft goods.<br /><br />Our current collections are screen printed by hand with water-based ink onto natural-fiber fabrics. All pieces are screen printed and sewn in the U.S.A. Our pillows, place mats, napkins and coasters are printed on one side only.<br /><br />All pieces are machine-washable in cold water and mild detergent. Avoid harsh detergents as prints will fade. Air dry or tumble dry on low and iron with high heat. Expect 5% shrinkage. Do not dry clean or bleach.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.heatherlinshome.com/" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477158947036337538" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBJlXKfWhY8QScnQMSFOHwu6-bd2b54f2fd3D7LEsNwOXw_EQrJZdska5OOYcHRXYtC82dJJxFkVIhb7TbWx8hyB7WemAcKpRe1ohCsXcZ2Cc2BTWM5NW9tQiL7OAexpTk-_Cbsc8NkzdU/s400/HLfooter.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 529px; height: 68px;" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.heatherlinshome.com/">Visit Heather Lins Home</a>

For this purpose we have created the FLOWmodel™, a design model that reflects our three dimensional view on creating sustainable growth:</p> <p><strong>Individual flow:</strong><br />Balanced physical, mental and spiritual growth.</p> <p><strong>Collective flow:</strong><br />Balanced interpersonel, cultural, economic, social and technological growth.</p> <p><strong>Environmental flow:</strong><br />Balanced environmental growth.</p> <p>A holistic mindset that is the essential basis of all our future commercial and non-commercial activities. Thus FLOW™ is the brand name for our products and services that in each of their own way catalyze sustainable growth.</p> <p>A FLOW™ product is caracterised by providing beneficial solutions on both the individual, the collective and the environmental level.</p> <p>A wide range of products created from theFLOWmodel™ are in progress, and will be serving consumer markets in the near future. The first product launch will be FLOWbottle™ in august 2007.<strong> <a href="http://www.theflowinstitute.com/"></a></strong></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRU3B1gK4zvQAepOIUGd_7JPXeJ6uZfQ8nc6TXDICpQkmdPqCgM-zED4G50bqrYXJG0bIwIDNQpYeW4dy1IVV6D3lAkjfD5c0BRDY__GbVNtVcpH_XEvECtIHkCWY0bkvEhHsnlVZlfk-A/s1600-h/Picture+22.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5087173763682022018" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRU3B1gK4zvQAepOIUGd_7JPXeJ6uZfQ8nc6TXDICpQkmdPqCgM-zED4G50bqrYXJG0bIwIDNQpYeW4dy1IVV6D3lAkjfD5c0BRDY__GbVNtVcpH_XEvECtIHkCWY0bkvEhHsnlVZlfk-A/s400/Picture+22.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 499px; height: 538px;" /></a> </p> </div> </div><br /><a href="http://www.theflowmarket.com/index.php?page_id=31"><br />You can buy the products here.</a><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">all information and images courtesy of FLOW.</span></span>
