I Heart Cool Stuff

I’ve officially mentioned it a billion times now– Upper Playground is the bomb! =) Their latest addition to an already exceptional product line are pillows that sport some fancy art from two of my favorite artists; David Choe and Sam Flores.

I find that Choe’s pillow is a little too artsy for my home (although, in my head I have a dozen photo-ops), but Flores’ Fatima will go perfect with what I seem to have going on in my home. Each of the pillows measure 20″x20″ and cost $40 a pop. I really don’t think that’s a horrible price for some art in your home decor. To purchase either pillow follow the links below.

David Choe’s “Hair Do” / Sam Flores’ “Jumping Tiger“

p.s. Upper Playground should pay me for the free advertising, I’m just saying. =)

I posted about the new Upper Playground shop that opened up in my neighborhood last week, and I believe I was also very clear about how excited I was to finally be able to see their products in person. Tomorrow, I hope to stop by at a decent hour and try to find the New Era hats above. I’m really into Sam Flores (Fatima, left), who designs numerous products for UP and really want to own some kind of apparel from him. I know that hats are technically not apparel, but I can’t get enough of his characters. In addition to the hat above, which costs $45– I’m interested in a bag they have at the shop. (more…)
