sundays show in brooklyn was fantastic, lots of folks showed up for handmade goods & 90s prom flashbacks. There was a steady crowd of shoppers all day and lots of cool vendors we hadn’t met before like Rich, the man behind SPRAGWERKS — cast metal belt buckles, rings & jewelry, and some familiar faces like our friend from chicago — rebecca and her RAR RAR PRESS postcards.
I was so happy to finally meet some of the lovely ladies behind BUST that I’ve only spoken to in email before sunday like Maggie Tam Clark — Associate Publisher of Advertising & Marketing, Debbie Stoller –Editor-in-Chief/Publisher, and Dawn Mauberret — marketing/promo. Some of the ladies did some skirt shopping too – Debbie grabbed one of my new vintage remix skirts & Maggie got herself a daisy print opal. Big thanks to BUST for being a source of inspiration & for helping me reach lots of readers with my BUSTSHOP ads in the back of the magazine over the past few years. THANKS BUST for helping this small biz girl grow!
I did a little interview with Debbie that will be on their website next week with lots of other vendor interviews and event coverage. You can view some prom photobooth pix in the meantime at:
