Happy Friday, friends! I’m headed down south for some family time tomorrow and am soooo excited to crash the county fair for a lemon shake-up and a pulled pork sandwich. Of course, I’d have way more fun if I was sporting an awesome Foreshore Dynamic tee (or a KrochetKids ‘Love’ tee for charity!) and one of Alessandra Olanow’s totes. I’m kidding, I suppose. Doesn’t matter what you wear as long as there’s a fair (whee! I can rhyme!).
The truth is, I’m slowly learning to fall back in love with my Midwestern roots. Sure, there are no mountains (or embroidered mountains at that!), but it’s all in your perspective. Wherever you live, you’ve gotta make it yours (like Ana’s Panama zines!) and press onward. Besides, home is where you keep your vintage Nintendo console collection, yes?
I’ll sign off for now, but before I go, remember Claire Ashley’s awesome trash bag work? Yesterday, she sent over a sneak peek image of her trash bag pillows (not yet on her site) that she just finished working on, which I posted above. Amazing, right?
Happy weekend, guys!
p.s. Plover Organic is having a 50% off sample sale next week (Aug 4-6th). I’ll be there virtually, of course!
This pillow is fabulous!! Thanks so much for sharing and have a fantastic time at the country fair. Oh how I miss country fairs! I love California for sure but I miss my midwestern roots sometimes. :)
Hi Erin! Have a great weekend!
Thanks for mentioning the zines, I hope they are fun to read as much as they are to make.
