Want to stir up a conversation at Starbucks or Bean around the World? Get people's attention with the cuff on your wrist - a Bentwood cuff that is.
Bentwood is a line of wooden jewelery and accessories that are hand-made with exotic wood cast-offs. The cuffs can double as a bracelet and a coffee sleeve. You can really get the attention of that cute barista when you tell her/him to hold the cardboard ;)
Other than the bracelets, there are also the money holder where you can pull out your cash or credit card with style. Want to give a cute present to your friend? Check out Bentwood's unique dog tags - it's not about the military metal look anymore, it's all about the simple wood.
Seem familiar? Bentwood by contexture designs was created by Nathan Lee and Trevor Coghill- UBC graduates of the Landscape Architecture program in the beautiful city of Vancouver. They have been featured in many other publications including Granville Magazine, Globe and Mail, Georgia Straight, WE, etc. Don't worry about their designs being only in Vancouver - you can find them online and many other locations within Canada and US.
Where to find their stuff in Vancouver:
Twigg + Hottie at 3617 Main Street
Mooncruise Gallery at 235 Cambie Street
For other locations and more information about their designs, check out their website:

I wonder why it didn't work actually... let me try something__
---- spaces ------- do you accept the spaces? ------------

Blaspheme Bourne
Hmm. Yeah, the editor strips out the extra spaces. Or could be that it's the CSS. Another thing for the list of things to fix... Sorry MarcieS
