PDA @ PDA

The People's Design Award (henceforth known here as PDA) welcomes your vote for good design by 6 pm EST on October 16, 2007.

I'm such a great admirer of Debbie Glasserman's Gluten-Free Alphabet design (pictured) for my Gluten-Free NYC Boutique that I've nominated it in a shameless Display of Public Affection (henceforth known here as PDA too).

So far it seems to be the only gluten-free design in the competition. If you like it, please go ahead and indulge in your own Public Display of Affection—the design is up against such heavy-hitters as the iPhone and the Vaughan S-2 Split-head Hammer!

You can find the design, comment on it, and vote for it by searching for the word gluten.

UPDATE As of about 10:22 pm Sunday, the Gluten-Free Alphabet seems to be 109 in a field of 290—not bad considering it's late entry? And there's still time to put in some more votes and/or comments....

SHAMELESS SHIRT PROMOTION!























As some of you might have noticed, I've jumped on the CafePress bandwagon by launching the Gluten-Free NYC Boutique, offering T-shirts, aprons, mousepads, and other goodies designed in coordination with Debbie Glasserman Design of Greenwich Village. Naturally, we hope you like them!

I think very highly of designer Debbie Glasserman--dig that gf alphabet!--but I have to admit that, even though we're friends, we've had some "disagreements" when it comes to pricing. Ultimately, though, I get to make those decisions because I'm the proprietor of the boutique. So expect to see prices that some might consider nutty!

Regardless of the pricing, a portion of the revenues will go to a gluten-free cause, where I hope it will have a good effect.

And now for a word from another person whose prices were considered insane.
