I just heard about online store and shopping community, Store Envy, from Minneapolis-based graphic and product designer Adam Brackney who just opened his new shop there called Workerman. Brackney designs clean modern pendant lights, sleek wall hooks and a few limited edition items like screenprints (shown below). I like the simplicity of his work, and though it's simple the look is striking — certainly not boring! Have a look… these would be lovely presents!
His Keep It Simple Stupid poster is such a great reminder of the beauty that is simplicity. I think it would be cute if Real Simple staffers hung these in their offices, right? Pretty cool. But also good for the rest of us — such a great reminder! And his pendants are divine. They are made from a solid piece of walnut and have a vintage carbon filament-style bulb.
Love this shop and thanks Adam for letting us know about it! And readers don't forget to check out the other stores over at Store Envy.The site looks promising and I love that they also feature indie music labels in addition to arts and crafts.

These are great items. As a fellow designer, I am attracted to these particularly. Speaking of nice things, I have a “Real Simple™” credit card wheel/holder that I just love and want to give one to my sister but I can’t find it anymore. Can you help?
It looks like the card wheel you have on your site now except the cards are clear plastic slots for credit cards: http://www.realsimple.com/home-organizing/organizing/organizing-products-00000000007024/page6.html
Please help.
Thanks for posting about Storenvy and Workerman! Adam’s stuff is so great… don’t tell our other stores, but his is our favorite right now.
I too had the credit card wheel until my purse was stolen two weeks ago. I loved it. I went back to Target to purchase and they said that they no longer carry Real Simple products. I need that credit card wheel to make me life complete. Please help!
I am looking for the real simple product called the card wheel. I would like to buy them wholesale in bulk to use in a business project.
