D and I went up to L.A. yesterday for the
Renegade Craft Fair. It was like Etsy in real life, some things I loved, and some things not so much. This is what I got! A crystal and "seed bombs" (homemade compost mixed with California wildflowers) from
Terri Planty, a zine about making friendship bracelets (screenprinted with a cool gradient), a
bird and horse mobile by Hillery Sproatt (really, really want a bunch of her dolls too), and a leather tassel keychain by
Carrot + Corriander.
Other highlights:
It was super fun wearing my cat dress because a bunch of people recognized me! It was nice meeting Caitilin of
Nice, and I wish I could have bought her
Wild Heart banner. Also had fun browsing through my old neighborhood(s), and catching up with old friends from my former life as an L.A. girl. So much has changed in Silverlake, Echo Park, and Little Tokyo in the last 2 years! My favs were
IKO IKO for amazing everything, and
Wurstküche for the best fries ever.
You've probably already seen this if you follow me anywhere else on the internet, but here it is, the second issue of Sad Girls. The spreads above are by Karolin Schnoor, Angella d'Avignon, me, and Caitlin Shearer, and the cover is by Rachel Levit. In all, 10 girls contributed over 28 pages. Buy an issue here (only $6!), and issue 1 is also available if you missed out last time.
