The farmer's market DJ today threw the Reading Rainbow theme into the mix and a bunch of other fellow elder millennials started singing along, in case @levarburton ever worries about his legacy or anything. 📚🌈 – at Washington, DC

This whole thread is amazing.
China Post just launched its annual zodiac stamps ahead of Spring Festival, and this year's blue rabbit stamp caused quite the commotion as many think it looks like a rabbit from hell.

That's a wrap on our holiday season! Thank you all so much for your support of this little shop this year. The ornaments are being packed away and we'll be back in a couple weeks on January 20th. #smallbiz #winterbreak #shopsmall #supportlocal – at Washington, DC

[watching me lick the string to thread my needle when sewing on a new button] "EW, that's your SPIT! That's GROSS, Mama!" -- the same child who makes spitting fart noises every five minutes and wipes her nose on my shirt half the time – at Washington, DC

Do you do holiday cookie baking? 🍪 And would your grandma be tickled or offended by these cookie cutters?

Ah, December -- the time of year when the small business owner constantly puts their house key in the door of the shop, and the shop key in the door of the house. – at Washington, DC

these photos are old news to ppl who have been following menswear for a while. but for those who may not have seen, here are some images of King Charles wearing patched-up suits and shoes that supposedly have been in his wardrobe for many decades
Ursula from Bowerbird Stitchery will be out front tomorrow, Saturday the 30th, to help you save your clothes! Fair warning: it'll be her last one here before her cross-country move. (😭😭😭)
Brookland jewelry artist Dahbia makes these beautiful, stackable rings. Check them out this Saturday (along with the new display I made for them, thankyouverymuch)! #shoplocal #likesuperlocal #wirewrappedjewelry #jewelrymaker #brooklanddc – at Washington, DC

Vacation vibes for your home! Vintage metal coasters, available singly or make your own set of 4. #coastcoasters #vintagedecor #maine #california #alaska #shoplocal #vacationvibes
Meet the artist behind @Noctiluna, maker of adorable screenprinted baby and kids' clothing! Chitra is a talented artist and crafter, and runs an amazing kids summer arts camp (which I wish was for adults). She'll be bringing more short sleeved onesies for the shop soon!

So, where should you shop, then? Unfortunately, we're past the where. We all need to make a shift in HOW we shop. That means buying less, taking care of what we have and actually wearing it, and buying secondhand as much as we reasonably can.

Whenever anyone talks about unethical fashion, whether it's high end designers' poor practices, fast fashion, or counterfeits, the immediate response is "why do you care?" or "There's other things to worry about." So, I'm gonna tell you why you should care, too.

Look, I'm not telling you how to live your life, but I am going to be HIGHLY disappointed if this does not become someone's stash bag. Vintage Girl Scout patch from Colorado hand-sewn onto a modern dopp kit with waterproof lining.
