This year, like every year, we wish one and all a wonderful day of Thanksgiving, no matter where you are.
And like every year, the best way I know to recapture that ultimate Thanksgiving feeling is via this perfect and lovely Charles Schulz cel illustration. Why? Because it’s the best there is. Enjoy the A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving in it’s glorious entirety below.
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving in all of it’s meanings for you.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It’s been a crazy year for us, and we are so thankful for so many of our amazing friends and families.
This year we are hosting a big Friendsgiving dinning, and as always, Charles Schulz portrays this best.
We hope that you have a lovely time with family and friends eating just a wee bit too much and enjoying the warmth. And click the image above (or right here) to watch the Charles Schulz’s classic “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” ❤
From us to you, all the best & brightest!
Did I post this same completely perfect and lovely Charles Schulz cel illustration for the last two years for Thanksgiving? Yes. Why? Because it’s the best silly.
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving in all of it’s meanings for you.
So go darn it!! RCF is in McCarren Park (but not in the pool this year) in lovely Brooklyn, NY.
Sadly, I won’t be attending or vending this year 🙁 due to other travel plans in June. And I’m so bummed because this year’s Renegade Craft Fair is the biggest and best looking offering of amazing handmade crafts, art to date. The offering of incredible work from the DIY and Handmade culture is just fantastic, and the Renegade Craft Fairs are the premiere shows loaded with international talent.
Seriously. I feel like a ghost and watching all of my crafty, arty friends are hanging out together. BooooOOOOoooo :rattleschanins:

Beans & Screens, screenprinted art print Coffee Show 2009 Important Details:
*Mugshots Coffehouse in Philadelphia is a part of the Independents Coffee Cooperative, both working collectively to raise $16,000 for the Peruvian farmers who grow the coffee sold as their house coffee (Independents Peruvian Select). The farmers are undertaking an ambitious project to build a solar powered drying facility (to dry the beans after they are harvested). This will allow for the farmers to improve both the quality and quantity of the coffee they grow, by protecting it from the frequent rains in the region. 100% of the profits made through the show at Mugshots will go to Cooperativa San Fernando, a farmer-owned organic coffee cooperative located high in the Andes Mountains near Cusco, Peru.

Friends Are Neato, brown & pink womens & mens/unisex tees.
Hey guess what! If you haven’t seen me at a craft show, you very likely haven’t seen my t-shirts for sale. Since most of my tshirt designs are printed in small runs, I usually only take them with me for shows rather than always having them available online. But now, with the craft and poster carny-travel season coming to a close, I put up some t-shirts in my Etsy store.
Elephant & Bird Friends Are Neato, womens & mens/unisex tees.
Available in sought after Women’s tee styles by Hyp brand, (an amazingly soft and comfy women’s tee that puts the other to shame) as well as traditional Mens/Unisex cut styles too. Take your pick! And, now that it’s chilly time, hoodies are in the works too. Got a suggestion or a design that you would love to see on a hoodie? Drop me line.
Nesting Brown Birdies, womens & mens/unisex tees.
And if you’re like me, you could always improve your tshirt folding skills, check out this super sonic, faster-than-the-speed-of-sound shirt-folding technique. SHAZAM!
