Go on and have a look in their gallery to see the other August contributions. and maybe sign up. wabisabibrooklyn.jpg

Tonight from 6-8 at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn: Trashion Trunk Show!

We are members of the Trashion Street Team and will be there with some freebies for early birds, but will not be selling.

Tomorrow from 11-7 we wrap up our July residency at Brooklyn Indie Market. We are more or less taking a break from table selling for most of August and September, so do drop by.

And remember: Thursday is the last to sign up for August Freebie Fridays: Every Friday in August we will be giving away a free necklace to someone from our mailing list.

Brooklyn Indie Market is on Smith Street near President. Take the F or G train to Carrol and exit at President Street.

Side effects may include increased appetite (for jelly beans-study the picture closely), sauciness, and a well-earned air of superiority. Ask your doctor if wabisabi brooklyn is right for you.760159241_619d3c16ac_o.jpg

This is off topic – it’s not decoupage, but antique glass – but I like it anyway.

On this hot and sticky day, wabisabi brooklyn offers up the recipe for a favorite summer cocktail: the Spriz (pronounced “Spritz,”) first enjoyed in Venice but since consumed to keep the local swelter at bay:

One part prosecco

One part Aperol

Fill a rocks glass with ice and pour in the Aperol, followed by the prosecco. Stir. Add a slice of orange. Drink.

Mmmm…
