June 7th // 2010

I'm back from the Renegade Craft Fair, which was held over the weekend in Brooklyn. Here are some photos of the Giant Dwarf pop-up shop and my new display, made from discarded cuts of wood, found in my local park, and an old forgotten easel, found in my basement. I think the woodsy bits, which display headbands, and the wooden easel, which holds a vintage mirror, are perfectly paired and work really well with my aesthetic.

I brought lots of new things with me to the show, including a spruced up version of the Farfallette Bow + some sweet letterpress cards made by my dear friend Amanda, who just opened up a fantastic Etsy shop, Mello Press.

The weather was daunting, to say the least, but our tent was in a shady spot and we had some amazing neighbors, Sarah + Dawn from The Small Object and Kellee + Matt from Overdue Industries. I met lots of really kind folks and got the nicest feedback from those who tried on my hats + headbands.

I owe huge hugs + high fives to Nate + our friend Sarah, who helped out the entire weekend. I couldn't have done it without them. Also, I'd like to thank Sue + Danny of Renegade Handmade, for putting on such a stellar show, as always. It was a dream to be back in New York and I'm already looking forward to next year's show!

Looks fantastic as usual! I wore my fascinator with a new pair of matching goldenrod shoes all over the Bay Area last weekend and you should have seen all the looks I got. :) Hope you are well, dear Sue!
