Introducing the Index.

After years in development we are excited to launch our new inventory management system called the Index.  This web-based platform now allows access across all devices from computers to tablets to smartphones.  The Index is designed to easily inventory your current Tim Holtz products, as well as curate any “must have” products on wish lists.  This system was developed with the maker in mind and features simple clickable icons to keep you organized at a glance.

a sincere thank you to our friends neil + zoe hillman. neil for his brilliant web-jedi skills in developing/creating the index, and zoe for her epic data skills entering every product to the index. the hours, days, months, and years you both devoted to building this amazing interface is a makers dream come true… tim + mario
