If you haven't already checked out
SMASH (
"Toronto's best source of quality salvage materials, vintage fixtures and character architectural pieces") in the Junction, you totally should! I pressed my nose up against the glass one early Sunday morning last month only to see an entire skid of rolls of vintage wallpaper waiting inside. I went back at a more respectable hour when the gallery was actually open and scored the above for ten bucks! In addition to covering almost every flat surface in my home with the stuff, I'm looking forward to lots of bookbinding projects and handmade envelopes.
And I couldn't have strolled in at a better time -
Contact was happening and SMASH was the site for
Three Generations of Urban Portraiture with photos by
Steve Carty,
Che Kothari, and
Jamel Shabazz, including this:
Ice Cube and retro wallpaper together in one spot! West End Connection, yo.
