    tara-and-percy

    Jersey Ice Cream Co was founded in the summer of 2010. Two kids in love found an old embossing stamp at a flea market, dreamed up a design empire, and then set to work trying to create it. Today Tara Mangini and Percy Bright spend their time moving house to house, job to job, leaving beautiful homes in their wake. They believe in craftsmanship, timelessness, and leaving things better than they found them. They do not make ice cream, but will happily have some if you’re offering.

This news feels like it’s been three years in the making, and in fact, I think that’s just about right.

Goodbye, Philadelphia. Hello, New York!

Ever since I left New York in a flurry of life panic a few years ago, I’ve been dreaming and plotting and planning on coming back. I remember there being a vague plan to find a great guy, figure out what I’m going with my life and move out to California.

At the time I didn’t really expect any of those things to come true, but lucky old young me almost got it all. The magic-making Percy Bright, a completely revamped and improved career, and a rekindled love for New York that I think might really last. Especially with a few International love affairs thrown in here and there.

People aren’t exactly dying to rent to two people taking the leap with a new business, so we are so grateful to have found such a beautiful place to spend the summer while the hunt for our real apartment continues. Sun streaming in the windows, Fort Greene buzzing around us, a banana whipping juicer that we found in the kitchen – we’ve got it all!

The place is pretty adorable to start, but we can’t wait to show you the spruced up Jersey Ice Cream Co. version. Especially after we hit Brimfield this week.

As Ira Glass would say, in his Ira Glass way, stay tuned.
