Hey everyone! This is my latest project... Something! It's inspired by Nothing and Nothing. I decided to be the devil's advocate and wanted to see what would happen on this end of the spectrum. Something is better than Nothing. ;) These are plastic bars with the word "something" engraved into them. They come in a box. On the back of the box, each one has a unique number and my signature! There are only 120 of these available in existence. This is my first time creating sellable items and I can't begin to describe all the challenges and problems I came across while attempting this project. So many extra expenses, customer service calls, help from friends, delays, and a few mental breakdowns... but it was a fun learning experience! I put a lot of love into this and I'd appreciate any support you guys can show me by buying or sharing. :)

I'll buy 1 ... how much ??
Garry
They'll be $20 CDN. Available on the website, although I can probably just sell to friends in person too!
I've placed a small ad on my modest site (it links to your cool minimalistic website). Good luck, the first step to a multi conglomerate creative company!
Are pictures 1 and 3 the box containing a bar of Something, and 4/5 the actual Something bar? I think this would be perfect for those times when I'm in the mood for something, but don't want to get up from my desk.

Haha, thanks Rob!!
Jay, yes! :P And the circle stickers will seal each box, and the other stickers are for some mailing envelope fun!
Sounds like you put a lot of thought into this! And fancy stickers certainly suggest that something is a quality product. Any idea what you're going to charge for Canadian shipping?
Jay
I actually went to the post office to talk to someone about all the shipping stuff. The item is just larger than the maximum letter size so it has to be mailed as a small packet/parcel which means Canadian shipping is around $9, although since I'm in the GTA I can possibly meet people in person, depending on who & when!
That's pretty considerate of you! I don't think the east coast is part of the GTA yet though, so I will just be satisfied receiving something in the mail :) Thanks for being such a good sport with all the questions!

Hello! :)
Do you ship these international (To Norway), because I would love to buy one if you do!
Thanks. :)
Yeah! :)
If you want a more accurate & cheaper quote, e-mail me since Amazon has some extra fees added.

Hello!
I was wondering if you ran out of stock?
Nope, not yet! :)
Love your designs and sense of humor. It is great to see an artistic individual with a new fresh point of view.
