I just love 90's wrapping papers... They are awesome and tacky at the same time.

I went out to took some photos for the shop. The spring is finally gradually getting here and the light was so very beautiful.

The suede shirt is on sale here.

Pyynö made sketches of Ulpu the Assistant for PoVintage calling cards and label tags.  I'll post some pictures of them once they come out of the press.

The PoVintage Team

Pyynö made some caricatures of us.

It seems all we're lacking is a theme song... Something like this might be fun (with more customer friendly lyrics of course):

Theme song from Team America: World Police, 2004.

Two-headed sloth gift wrapped some orders

Some of the lovely orders that have gone out. I was getting too overwhelmed with all the ribbons and bows so the two-headed sloth came to my rescue.

Pyynö wasn't happy with her first sketch of the mental looking girl (read: Salla) so she drew it again for the final version of the PoVintage comic. Even though the second version is better, I really liked the original as well and wanted to use it somewhere. Finally it ended up here.
