Nicole Tarasick's Pop-Up Sale

From Nicole:

I will be having a special little sale at a great little place, and I would be so pleased if you would come. I have pillows, map prints, tote bags and some other bits and bobs. All these things in my studio that need homes! I thought I would extend some special prices in time for the holidays. The Mascot has amazing coffee, little treats, the best magazines, and an overall rad vibe. If you haven't been yet, you should skip on over. Looking forward to seeing you! PS. Cash only! F/B Invite
