About 3 months ago Ashley said to me, "You know what would be cool? If we did some designs that were reversed." Typical husbandry logical response, "Why would we do that? That means you couldn't read it." My powers of clear thinking were strong. Until she answered, of course (this is how most of our conversations go). "Well, what if the design said something inspirational like 'You can do it' or 'You got this' so that the person wearing it would be able to read it when they looked in the mirror? Like a little motivational reminder when they start their day."
Yep, that was a great idea. I wish I had thought of that! I floated the idea around to several good friend and they concurred. My logic was weak, but the idea was not. So, we set out to come up with some designs.
You're Worth it Hoodie
The first I sketched out on a plane headed to Portland. It turned out so well that we ended up using it as is - it's got a nice hand-drawn feel.

One thing that really excited us about starting Last Night Ago was the opportunity to give back. We decided early on that we really liked Rice Bowls' approach to feeding children in need and chose them as our first non-profit to partner with.
We're still in the early stages of bootstrapping this whole shirt thing and there have been a lot of costs on the front end so we haven't really had a ton of profit to give from this month. But thankfully my job at FortySeven Media and Ashley's furniture building/sign making/photography have been plentiful so we're going to be chipping in from those as well.
So! Our first official Last Night Ago donation to Rice Bowls is $200. According their website that's almost a whole truck of food. Wow! We're so humbled and thankful that we can help - even if it's just a little bit. And we couldn't do it without you guys! Thanks so much for your support.
P.S. If you'd like to help out Rice Bowls directly you can do that here.

Well, it's official! We actually sold some shirts and as of a week ago shipped our first products out the door. It was pretty exciting. Don't the kids seem excited? Who would have ever thought anyone would actually buy something from us?!

In case you missed it - we soft launched our Last Night Ago store a couple of weeks ago to friends and family and we've already had some pre-orders come in. Which is super exciting and really humbling.
Thank you guys so much. For real.
We had always planned on doing a giveaway when we launched, but we ran out of time trying to get it ready. As you probably surmised by the title of this post - it's ready!
This hand-painted and hand-finished sign says, "If you only look after yourself you'll never find yourself." It's the Longnecker version of Matthew 10:39, but it really just means that if you are selfish with all your time, money, resources, kindness and love it's all for nothing. We truly find ourselves when we're generous with what we've been given. It's something we believe in as we setup our store so that we could use a percentage on the profits to help those in need.
So! If you want to be entered to win this sign you just need to pick up a super comfy shirt from our store sometime between now and June 8th. And of course anyone who's already bought a shirt will be entered to win as well.

Tell your friends! Let's give what we've been given.
