Kitsch Klothing News, Christmas 2007

Hello ladies and gents! Interesting things are happening in the land of Kitsch Klothing this holiday season, and I thought I'd let you in on the news. I have been working hard on setting up a new online home for Kitsch, away from cafepress. As Well, Kitsch will be taking part in three Toronto craft and gift shows this christmas, and we're hoping to see you there! Finally, What is coming up next year for Kitsch? Keep on reading to find out! Otherwise, feel free to grab a sneak peek of the new website at http://www.kitschklothing.flyingcart.com/

Home Sweet Home....

The reason I started working on Kitsch Klothing two years ago, was to do something different and something hand-made that people would really appreciate and be able to use on a daily basis. Because of my budget at the time, I had to step away from having everything made by my own hands or one of my friends. That bothered me, as I feel this is an important feature in a premium product, and something that the public (and myself) appreciates. I am happy to announce that through the new website, you will only be purchasing directly from me, my products, my labours of love. :)

There will be less style selection as we start off, but I will try hard to keep things fresh and new, and happening with new designs, new t-shirt styles (Girly tees or hoodies, anyone?) and more!

Something new that you will not have seen before: Journals!

I have never offered journals on the old site, as I felt they were of inferior quality. The journals featured on the new site are hand-made and as indestructible as a journal can get, really. I carry them around with me at all times - sporting style, and keeping a doodle pad with me are important things in my life!

Season Shopping for the Savvy Spender!

With it being so busy in malls these days, no one really likes shopping during the busy season unless it's an absolute drop-dead necessity. Even if you can take the crowds, the long line-ups at the cash are enough to frustrate even the most patient of us all. This is another way that online shops are here to help! Shop online, day or night from the comfort of your own home (If it's not comfortable - mabye you should be shopping for a new computer chair!) and get what you want with a few clicks of the mouse.

Internet shopping not your cup of tea?

Well... I have just the thing. No, seriously.

This season Kitsch Klothing will be taking part in THREE - count 'em - THREE craft and gift shows. This is a great time to come out, have a great time, see some of Toronto's most talented artists and do some christmas shopping for someone special at very reasonable prices. For example, no Kitsch Klothing product will be over $25.00

I'd be honoured if you all would come out, show your support for toronto's creative community, and celebrate this new and exciting time in Kitsch Klothing's history.


Kitsch Klothing's Social Calendar

Below I have posted the details on all three of the craft shows happening this Fall/Winter 2007. Following that, I have listed some exciting places you'll be able to catch Kitsch Klothing in 2008!

December 6th - Speakeasy's Holiday Sale at the Gladstone
Chestnuts roasting, sleigh bells ringing, and the season starts a-swingin’! Join us for holiday cocktails, a few good tunes, and another fantastic show at The Gladstone. It’s a chance to shop for hand-crafted holiday gifts. It’s an opportunity for the public to see the work of 40 local artists, ranging from quirky one-off ceramics to handmade soap, jewellery and hand painted Christmas cards.Cover: Pay What You Can, $4.00 suggested

This venue will feature one-of-a-kind items as well as handmade items - nothing mass produced! Kitsch Klothing will be there Saturday December 8th and Saturday December 15th only!
