Peacock at Night

All aboard! Blik is taking you on a journey to see the magical, the mysterious and the just plain weird. We know by now you must be familiar with our Threadless Especial line, a curated collection of Threadless graphics handpicked by both Blik and Threadless. Get your cameras ready, the next stop on our tour is three new graphics at Blik.

Peacock at Night features a nocturnal peacock with the most ornate feathers you’ve ever seen. Skyrides is a fantastical journey of two little mice who’ve hitched a ride on a gondola between two giraffes. Monstrous Chemistry stars an assortment of strange monsters that are likely responsible for when things go bump in the night.

All three designs are available today at Blik. If you like the designs, don’t forgot to pop over to Threadless to get the matching tees.

A few weeks ago, we gave you a heads up that Pattern Wall Tiles were coming to Blik. Well, break out the champagne because they’re here!

We are thrilled to have collaborated with our pals at Threadless once again to launch new self-adhesive Pattern Wall Tiles. These fabric wall tiles are eco-friendly, non-toxic and free of both PVC and phthalates. We are kicking off Pattern Wall Tiles with five self-adhesive sets that will bring bursts of pattern into standard home and office spaces in a whole new way. Featuring designs from the Threadless community of 1.5 million artists from around the globe, the Pattern Wall Tiles are the first in a series of new wall tile designs that will be produced by Blik in the coming months.

How to Use

Pattern Wall Tiles were developed for surfaces that are not ideal for full coverage of pattern or paint – create an accent over a bed, behind a chair, on an interior door or kitchen cabinet or frame a small section of a wall. The sets don’t require messy glue and can be repositioned and moved easily. They are completely customizable and can be cut, crafted, and arranged in a number of ways. Rotate them, combine patterns and use on any smooth flat surface. Each individual Pattern Wall Tile is sold in a set of two or four tiles that cover 16 square feet of space.

Choice of Five Patterns

The new collection of Pattern Wall Tiles include; “Bird Flurry” by Julia Sonmi Heglund, “Ten” by Dan Sheffield, “Trees” by Dan Rule, “Take Shape Furs” by Daniele De Batté and “Psychedelic Garden” by Siu Fish and are now available for $39 each.

So, go ahead and pattern your life with Blik!

“Ten” Pattern Wall Tile

Love patterns? Want the look of wallpaper with the ease of a Blik wall decal? Well, today is your lucky day. We are excited to announce that we’ve collaborated with our friends at Threadless again to launch a new product: self-adhesive Pattern Wall Tiles. Even better? The tiles are eco-friendly, non-toxic and both PVC and phthalate-free. In addition to the new Pattern Wall Tiles, Blik is a proud sponsor of the Threadless Loves Patterns Challenge to kick off this exciting new product line.

We are launching four Pattern Wall Tiles to kick-off the collaboration and although they won’t be for sale at Blik until July 19, you can pre-order them from Threadless here. Each repeating pattern tile will be sold in a set for $39. Each set can make roughly a 48″ square but can be cut, crafted and arranged any way you like. Now let’s take a look at the four sweet designs.

Forget raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. Today Blik brings you a few of our favorite things: three neat-o new wall decals from our Threadless Especial line, the curated collection of Threadless graphics handpicked by Blik and Threadless.

We love the vivid, kaleidoscope-ish design of “Color Wheel,” the magical illustrations hidden in “LOVE,” and the whiskers on the cute kitten in “M!aw.” Okay, so maybe there’s one thing we can keep from that song.

And if your walls start to look better dressed than you do, these designs are also available as tees from Threadless.

Sock Monkey Just Wants a Friend

Any guesses? They are all new Threadless Especial graphics at Blik. You’ll remember that last month, we relaunched our Threadless line as Threadlesss Especial, a curated collection of Threadless graphics handpicked by both Blik and Threadless.

Today, we’ve got three fun graphics for your wall hanging pleasure. Sock Monkey Just Wants a Friend is a mash-up of Godzilla and a confused sock monkey who’s just looking for a little attention. To Scan a Forest proves that barcodes are everywhere – even in nature. And Lovebirds is a sweet, simple design that will warm your heart.

All three designs are available at Blik today. And if you like the designs, don’t forgot to pop over to Threadless to see the matching tees.

Iceberg

Sheepy Clouds

Today we are re-launching our Threadless collection at Blik. Drum roll, please… The new line is called Threadless Especial. Especial is what our lovable production team coined this new line and we thought the name was perfect.

What’s so special about it? The line is a curated collection of Threadless graphics handpicked by both Blik and Threadless. Think of it as a joint effort to bring you the best of both worlds. Say goodbye to the Threadless voting booth and hello to an edited line of specially selected wall graphics.

We are kicking off the Especial line with three new graphics: Sheepy Clouds, Bloombox and Iceberg. All three designs embrace the fun-loving Threadless style that you’ve come to love. To celebrate the launch, we are giving away 10 $20 Threadless gift certificates. We’re excited about the changes and hope you will be, too. Keep an eye out for upcoming Especial launches and promotions.

We can’t guarantee that it will be selected, but it just might… So voice your opinion! All comments must be received by Thursday, March 31, 2011 at 11:59pm PST. The 10 winners will be picked at random and notified by Monday, April 4, 2011.

WINNERS: Wow! You guys really love Threadless. Thanks for all the great ideas. Our 10 winners are: Katie, Heather, Ekta, Dane, Zack, Gigi, Ben, Lorriz, Heather and Kat. Your $20 codes have been emailed to you.

Psst… Next week, we’ll be relaunching our Threadless collection at Blik. Stay tuned for more on that later. In the meantime, we need to make some room for more new awesome Threadless designs so it’s time to say a fond farewell to some oldies, but goodies.

We thought you’d like to say your goodbyes too and maybe snatch up one or two of your favorites before they’re discontinued on March 29 at 5 pm PST because when they’re gone, they’re gone.
