But due to limitations of the website payment system, you have to email your orders first before you send your payment (otherwise you’d be charged the amount of shipping). send your orders to hej@fikafikafika.com. International orders meanwhile will get some nifty postcards and other little papery stuff :)

I stumbled upon this site while browsing thru sites of one of my favorite artist, Valerie Chua. Thanks to her promoting this, I seriously found an inspiration to get crafty and draw whenever I catch some artist’s block. Kudos to this,…
Ah so sweet! Thank you. I didn’t see this. Thanks for the kind words. <3

TACK!
Hej kompisar! (Hi friends!)
My friends and Iare joining the Brown Bag Vintage and Crafts Market . YAY! It’s our first time and it’s a bit exciting and terrifying. I’ve been waiting for something interesting like this because I feel Fika Fika Fika would be totally lost in an actual bazaar. We don’t even have enough stocks for big bazaars so we’d prefer something more intimate like this event. It’s just all sorts of awesome! Of course we can’t wait to sell some wares and we’re also crafting some new ones. All the Frankie publications will be sold at the fair.. so this time you don’t have to pay any shipping fees since you can browse and get it at the market. Double Yay! There will also be a lot of one-of postcards for sale and lovely paper goods that we have in stock. Kitch is going to make cool Gocco-print postcards/notecards and I’m going to do some Absolute Classic Masterpieces AKA Felt items. Maybe you can pick some Christmas presents for your friends and beloved ones at the market! Hah. By the way, Pre-loved items such as CDs, 7” and magazines will also be sold on the side… so feel free to rummage through them.
Since it’s not like your usual bazaar, I can imagine all the other concessionaires will also be quite interesting, oh and not to mention there will be a lot of activities for the young and old. I particularly want to attend the paper-cut outs, since I can just about manage it, but I’m not good at it. We really hope you can come, it’s after work for most people, so you don’t really have an excuse.. :D

I saw this truly interesting project on facebook the other day. I know it is going to be a bit of a task for me since the post office is far from me, but I really want to support this because I love mail and any sort of analogue correspondence. I think everybody should keep snail mail alive, if you agree, then let’s try our best and join this project. There is no money involved to join, one only has to like the page to show support (click the photo to go to the fb page) and then it’s up to us to challenge ourselves. I guess people can take pictures or blog/tweet (with hashtag #52weeksofmail) about it as proof if they want, but it isn’t a requirement as the page says. Exciting!“52 Weeks of Mail, brought to you by Etsy Greetings Team, is designed to encourage people to be more intentional about relationships and keeping in touch with friends and family by sending out a card or letter each week, for the next year. I don’t know about you, but I LOVE getting a personal, hand-written card or letter in the mail. Throughout 52 Weeks of Mail, we are asking everyone to commit to sending just ONE card or letter each week. You can send more than one, of course! 52 Weeks of Mail BEGINS on October 9th, 2011, and ends on October 7th, 2012. Please feel free to blog about this event, or share it on your Facebook page. Share it on Twitter, or any other social networking site too! We are hoping to get 1000 LIKES by the end of September. Please help out by sharing this with all of your Facebook friends! Let’s make this viral!”
