6.21

last of SF
. . .


I've never been good with changes, but my 25th birthday is on the horizon and I think it's the perfect time to call it quits for The Snail and The Cyclops / 1385

The particulars haven't been ironed out quite yet, but I'm in the process of creating a new space for myself on the internet. I'll still be selling vintage, and I'll still be taking photos of the old junk I find - it's just time for something different.

I'll be sure to post the formalities, url, etc. here once everything is in place.

Until then - I'll be temporarily re-opening 1385 sometime next week with a mix of things that aren't quite right for the new shop.

    Happy birthday Francesca! I wish you good luck with your new projects, and am looking forward to see what's next - I was sad to see you're closing the blog/shop, but it makes me very happy to see you'll still be posting on another format. Best wishes, xox

    Oh no!! This was one of the first blogs I ever started reading, it will be said to see it go. Definitely looking forward to a new corner of the 'net to hang out in when you get around to building it though. & Happy Birthday!

    It's a bloody disease, that's what it is. Blog-alaria. Blog-sumption. So far, in the last two weeks, three of my favorite bloggers have called it quits.

    AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgh!
