HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BSDS

Goodness gracious! How time flies. Bay State Design Shop, a little experiment me and @Erik Weikert cooked up on a whim has turned one year old. We never expected folks to get such a kick out of it, but we're humbled and stoked knowing we have over 250 members chewing the fat, exchanging ideas, and lending a hand to one another across the New England area.

So follow your dreams, kids. And here's to all the awesome, talented, and eminently-patient-for-putting-up-with-my-foolish-horsehockey folks that make BSDS what it is. THANK YOU ALL.

And hey, while you're at it, if you're a New England-area designer and you want to join a secret design clubhouse where everybody's invited, head RIGHT ON OVER to request your free invite.

Remember: FORTUNE FAVORS THE KIND.™
