Support DIY Publishing at SF Zine Fest This Weekend
Thursday, September 2nd Written by Andrew Dalton - Aggressive PanhandlerHey, would you look at that? Print media’s not dead, it’s just gone small-scale. If things like Indie Mart and Etsy can renew the public’s interest in lovingly-crafted stuffed animals and recycled jewelry, why can’t someone do the same for all those things we’d rather read on paper than on a computer screen?

DIY: An Ode to the All-Star
Wednesday, September 1st Written by Amber Bouman - Crafty & CashlessI was standing in line for a burrito today behind a group of ladies, all wearing spectacular summer shoes: hooved, heeled leather creations that encompassed the ankles, high-heeled strappy sandals that laced up the calves, cute 50’s style memorabilia heels…I looked at my feet and gave a silent prayer to my beat-up, brick-red Chuck Taylor ...

DIY: Moustache Mania
Wednesday, August 25th Written by Amber Bouman - Crafty & CashlessIt only takes one word: Moustache. Bigger than zombies, cupcakes, fixies and Justin Bieber combined, the Moustache is so hip it never stops happening. The master of facial hair fads gets all the ladies, not to mention gets plastered across tshirts, coffee mugs, cupcakes, cards, light switch covers, bandages, pint glasses, gloves. You got your ...

Awesome/Cheap Homemade Lunch Ideas
Tuesday, August 24th Written by Alison Lambert - Half Price HeadlinerBringing your own lunch to work is one of the most obvious and easy ways to save money and stay healthy. Unfortunately, such an act requires a level of foresight and organization that I often lack. I quickly grow weary of homemade sandwiches, I resent salads, and I’ve eaten enough canned soup at ...

Serena Studios: Affordable Belly Dance Classes
Friday, August 20th Written by Kiley E - Ragamuffin ResearcherI took a belly dance class in college, mainly because of my professor’s insistence and partially because of my love of shiny fabric. I was terrified at first, the only dance I’d taken was jazz in the seventh grade. My fears were assuaged after the first class. Contrary to the name, belly dancing is more ... Read More →

Wednesday, August 18th Written by Andrew Dalton - Aggressive PanhandlerHow many times have we told you to get your ass down to Indie Mart? Like a million times. If you haven’t made it out to one yet, then you still don’t know what kind of unique or inexpensive finds you’re missing out on. It’s like a farmer’s market, except the local produce is cute ...

DIY: Make a Wish Tree
Wednesday, August 18th Written by Amber Bouman - Crafty & CashlessOne of my favorite things about living in the Western Addition was spring time, when the cherry blossom trees would burst into flowers – not just because it’s a spectacular sight but also because someone in the neighborhood would decorate the trees with stuffed animals. Alligators laying across low-lying branches, blue and green bears, a ... Read More →
