Holly Brown owner of Clockworks Press® was thrilled to be participating in New York Denim Days for the second time was an awesome experience. Add in the fact that I was again the Officina +39 booth with Juan Manuel Gomez and Daniel Hernandez Estrada made it superb! This time around I was a participant in the Alchemist workshop which showcased Offcina's products; specifically recycrom and also their ready to use screen inks along with laser patches. I worked on one pair of jeans with the theme of alchemy as the inspiration. 

In addition I was honored to be asked to be part of an entrepreneur panel for the group NY denim Hangs. Sitting on the panel with  the owner of Smith's Leather Balm and  the owner of Viapiana Custom Denim. These guys are powerhouses in small biz and I definitely gained a ton of insight being on the panel with both of them. 

It was another indigo filled weekend and I can't wait for the next one.
