Has anyone checked out the premiere episode of Portlandia yet? Flapper Girl coffee cozies make an appearance in a scene at In Other Words (aka Women & Women First, as it’s named in the show).
Steve Buscemi (!!) walks in to use the restroom, then is confronted by the owners of the shop, who enforce their strict “Restroom is 4 Paying Customers Only” rule.
At one point, Mr. Buscemi picks up a coffee cozy and says, “Can I buy this wristband?” Then general hilarity ensues!
It is so awesome and exciting to see my coffee cozies used as a prop in this show! Thanks Portlandia!
You can peep the full first episode over at Portlandia’s website on IFC, or on Hulu. The scene with the coffee cozies starts about 8:52 minutes into the episode.

We were sitting and watching this episode and IMMEDIATELY spotted our beloved FlapperGirl bicycle cozies in the sketch, and of course stood up and yelled and pointed excitedly! Totally great to see the placement … and we always get lots of great comments and “where’d you get that?”s on our cozies – love them! Yay for FlapperGirl!! Congrats. :)
Thank you! Your comment just made me smile really big! :) *hugs*
