Thanks to everyone who came out to visit Crafts & Kisses yesterday, and to all the fantastic vendors! It was a huge success, with over 500 visitors stopping in to check out the goods. I heard nothing but positive feedback from both vendors and visitors. Everyone’s work was so cool I wish I could have bought something from each vendor! And Nick P. and Kalani played a zillion good songs, and Victor and Mariana gave out tons of kisses! Can’t wait to do it again.

Fresh Produce Threads have a great story: they’re indie rock and hiphop producers who used to sell their shirts out of produce crates at street markets and shows. I love this tomatoes shirt. Check them out Sunday at Crafts & Kisses!
