DiY Reconstructed Clothing on Ebay

I have been reconstructing old concert shirts and selling them under the "DiY" clothing section on Ebay(http://stores.ebay.com/Kittydirt-Vintage).

So I decided to expand with a trip to the cat's birth mother's home, Olvera Street.

There I got Frida Kahlo & Virgin of Guadalupe trinkets & postcards.
