In the Market for a Pretentious Frog?

As one works for a company that sells a plethora of ties, I think I can say that for the most part, Ive seen them all. Spots, stripes, paisleys, squiggles, vines, crazy or conservative, I know ties. So when I stumbled across this store on etsy, I was in awe! This etsy store has the wildest ties, I adore them!

 The store is called Scatterbrain Ties, and they opperate out of Utah. These ties are hand drawn by the man behind the company, Michael Phipps, and then screen printed on Microfibre, but if you're one with more discerning taste you can opt to have it printed on Silk instead.



Seriously, who doesnt enjoy a good illustration of a frog wearing a waistcoat? It's so Beatrix Potter. I can think of at least five men of the top of my head that I could buy that for, and they would love me forever because of it.




This Abe Lincoln tie is just fantastic, dont you think? 
 So perhaps the next time you need to buy a tie for your dad, or you're looking for an interestng gift for your man, check out this store! I'm officially a fan.
