An artist from Mexico City was selling posters and stickers at a little poster fair in Upmarket on Brick Lane in London today. Fell in love. Look how cute these designs are. And I get to know I supported the little guy instead of the big bad corp!!!!!!
I am getting very sick of entering a shop that says it’s filled with “artist-made goods” and its floor to ceiling baggu. I have a couple baggu pieces, but when I go into a store IRL or online that labels itself as a trinket trove in one way or another, I want to see real honest to god trinkets, gizmos, and doodads. I’ve been collecting stickers lately, particularly vintage ones on eBay and weird artist made stickers. Gatoshop really helps me get my fix and add to my collection. A studio run out of Mexico City, Inès Estrada and her team curate a lovely collection of local and international stationary, zines, keychains and other artist made gifts. They have some fun vintage toys and trinkets too and are always updating the website. check them out!
Not very interesting lore I know, but I wanted to share anyway because I’m excited and I love my fiancé more than life itself. Some of the best lore is some of the most normal lore.
”omg did they get the right angle???? did i smile too hard or not enough???” no more of this!!!!!!!! more being goofy!!!!! there’s more fun in life when you don’t look perfect!!!!
