OUT TODAY: Our 8th Skillshare class titled, “The Business of Graphic Design: Protect & Perfect Your Passion” is out! All the stuff off the page!

Here’s the official Skillshare verbiage about the class:

“Let’s see those business building blocks!
From your perfectly formulated file names to your invoice template, we want to see how you’re leveling up your business through expert administration. Just remember to keep your private information confidential. If you love the way your W-9 looks after a few adjustments, feel free to share it with a fun, made-up address rather than information like your real address or social security number. 

A few reminders:
* Investing in your business is just as important as investing in good marketing or a strong logo. By protecting yourself legally, you’ll be better equipped to handle any unwelcome surprises. 
* Be careful when taking financial or tax advice online. It’s always better to speak with a professional.
* Knowing your business is protected can help you feel more confident as a small business owner, which often shines through to your clients. 
* Be creative and curious in business ownership. Enjoy the process of learning, and if you don’t have an answer, don’t be afraid to ask.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: For the first time on Skillshare, I’m offering a month-long workshop to my students! After years of doing wild workshops out there on the road, then two surreal years of virtual workshops to points all over the globe, we’ve boiled our DDC logo-making process down into a fun month-long workshop: The “Master Logo Design with Aaron Draplin” ChromaCourse.

I hear this one all the time: “I just don’t have the time to make my own logo.” And that's PRECISELY why we’re doing this. June is the time to do it!

We’ll be delivering four assignments as pre-recorded daily lessons. Over the course of the week you’ll work on each lesson, and share it in our own Slack channel where I’ll be weighing in nightly to offer feedback on your progress. Then we’ll have weekly marathon live sessions where I’ll discuss projects, show examples of my own work, offer up tips and pointers, all in the spirit of how to improve your project each step along the way.

And all of this energy and exchange, in a safe, constructive environment where we can all share our project progress, learn how to improve our process and prop each other up. Sounds good, right? WELCOME TO THE DDC!

You don’t need to have a Skillshare membership to take this workshop, and you can reserve your spot in this link here. Space is limited to 125 students. These seats are going to go quick. We’re putting IT ALL OUT THERE for the month of June!

Let's do this! Gonna be fun, wild and I will EXHAUST every resource I have to deliver a fun workshop to you and the group! And be there to help you make you an awesome logo along the way!

THESE MITTENS ARE RAD AS HELL: I was reached out to by one Jeremy Burns from RAD Gloves about a year back about a possible collab. To the day! February 21, 2020 and we had a quick, fun conversation about our mutual connections in the snowboard industry, mutual buddies in Bend, Oregon and his time in Bend, and back in Australia where he grew up. We discussed possible models and the next thing I new, the first set of sample showed up to check out the quality of the mittens. All awesome. And let me tell you, from the first set of samples I saw with the design, THESE WERE A DEFINITIVE "GO." The fit, the details, the accents and how the graphics turned out...cool as all get out. Fro the first samples to the pile ready to go today...RAD!

Here's the part about these gloves I love the most: Sure, their origin is from the snowboarding world, but these will do the job while shoveling, while taking winter walks, while building snow forts...while SURVIVING WINTER'S ALPINE BITE! Ready for the elements, alpine warriors!

So proud of them! Thank you, Jeremy! They turned out SO RAD! Here we go...

FIND YER SIZE: The way to determine the size is this: Measure for the base of palm up to the top of the middle finger. Then check the Hang Length/Size guide. If you are on the fence with sizing, size up! Alright! BAM!

We cover the shipping in the states, but charge the basics for international orders. Before you place the order through our PayPal account, send us an email to "orders(at)draplin.com" and we'll get you a shipping quote for the goods you are interested in. As simple as that! Thanks!

This one goes back a good twenty years. When I met my buddy Ryan Coulter in 2002, I instantly knew that this was the kind of guy to start taking notes around. He knew how to make stuff! Snowboard bindings, shoes, sporting goods, bags...all sorts of boss stuff. And free of the pompous industrial design swagger I've run into here and there. He was a regular guy! We shared a Midwestern upbringing bond, and a yearning for The West. We both had to escape. There's a cool understanding there we share. Each gig, project or year we make it out here is always good for a high-five. And that goes back to 2002.

Over the years we got to collaborate a bit for Union Binding Company, and then made some Field Notes for The James Brand, and this time? We made a knife together. And for that, I am blown away. I'll have one of these on my keychain FOREVER.

And hey, this isn't just about a knife—it's about the power of design. Coulter and Sam designed EVERY single facet of this thing. I'm in awe every time a James Brand product. Respect, buddy. Congratulations on amazing The James Brand, and thank you for making these for the DDC! We love ya, Coulter!

Please read this, international customers: If you order other items there may be additional shipping required. Order the knife using this link, add your other items to the cart and we'll reach out to the email from your PayPal account about the extra shipping charges if necessary. Make sure your PayPal email is up to date, as well as your address. If you haven't heard from us, please check your "SPAM" and "Junk" e-mail folders.

International orders can be a bit tricky. Once the package leaves the states, we can track it, but lose the ability to interface with international post offices. It's just out of our hands at that point. In almost all cases, they get held up in customs, and might require extra funds to release it. Or are being held at your local post office. We can't be held responsible for lost packages, custom charges or tracking things down, so please contact your local post office to check to see if packages are being held.

ON THE TWELFTH DAY OF MERCHMAS, AARON WENT ROGUE: I've been good all year. And last night? I was bad.

I've been working up a little something out here. And will offer up no other details...to my colleagues at @fieldnotesbrand in Chicago, to the readers of this post...hell, Leigh didn't even know about this one. I HAVEN'T EVEN TOLD MY MOM. And I'll deal with that fallout in due time.

While I've got yer ear, let me say thanks to everyone for an INCREDIBLE DDC MERCHMAS onslaught these last twelve days. We appreciate each and every order.

Our final offering for DDC Merchmas 2021 is the "Aaron's Leap of Faith" @fieldnotes brand edition. Load up! These are going to GO QUIIIIIIIICK!

Someone left the gates open, and I got in!

You just gotta believe: Aaron's "Leap of Faith" Field Notes Edition

MYSTERIOUS MOVES: It's the eleventh day of DDC Merchmas, and we went digging!

And after a small fracas—but a couple asses and elbows away from an all-out donnybrook—we unearthed a small, spirited stash of rare Field Notes to release out into the world. We've consulted with "THOSE IN THE KNOW" over fair market values...based on rarity, scarcity and froth value and separated them into three groups:

AND YOU GET:
- 1 Rare Field Notes 3-Pack Pleasantly Plucked From the DDC Vault
- 1 Souvenir Patch
- 1 Mystery Merch Item
- and a wad of stickers.
- - - - AND YOU GET: - 1 Rather Rare Field Notes 3-Pack Cleverly Coaxed out of the DDC Vault
- 1 Souvenir Patch
- 1 Key Tag
- 1 Mystery Item
- and a grip of stickers.
- - - - AND YOU GET: - 1 Really, Really Rare Field Notes 3-Pack Powerfully Packjacked out of the DDC Vault
- 1 Souvenir Patch
- 1 Key Tag
- 1 Jean Jacket Pin
- 1 Mystery Merch Item
- and a clump of stickers.

Each kit comes with a rare Field Notes 3-pack and extras. And said extras ramp up considerably, as you go up the food chain. We packed a lot of value into these. Both new, old and just plain weird. Very, very limited number on these, and they'll go quick!

Recently found a stash of Deaders and said my goodbyes in a small ceremony this morning. Be good out there, you little shits. Spread your pages and flap away.

AND HEY: All proceeds go to charity.

Go!

Sold Out: $33/ $66 / $99

And once they hit land, they are shipping out to Portland, and dispersed the moment we get them. So, this is a bit of a "pre-order" of sorts.

TURN IT UP: A record label? Here's how thing starts. So my buddy O and I are on a call a year back, catching up about bands, jobs and whatever else. "I got a new band going called Harshmellow," he says. Excited I reply, "Yeah, what's it all about?" And O tells me about his friend Sarah who's playing bass on the songs, and the recording process, and how he enlisted Dale and Buzz from the Melvins! As well as Arrow de Wilde from Starcrawler. My interest piqued, I interrupt and say, "Well, hell, who's doing the design for the record."

And O snaps back, "You are!" And then I say, "Hell yeah, man, you got it! And what record label is going to put it out?" Cuz here's the deal, O knows everyone, and has put out so many records over the years, and I can’t wait for his answer. And O snaps back again, "You are!"

And that's where DDC Records was born. On a spotty reception call with while O was whipping through some beach hamlet in South California. Welcome to DDC Records! -Aaron James Draplin, DDC Records
