The word itself has become almost like a logo, and of late has been rather a la mode -jewellery, clothing prints and what have you.
The trend is exemplified at its kistch, cute and quirky best on Folksy, not least in these four fabulous finds...

Amazingly 3 of these sellers have yet to make sales on Folksy, so get over there and have a look!
I like to be a bit strange as you know, quite contrary. I thought I'd go against the grain and celebrate that other extreme and passionate emotion -hatred. And as I like to juxtapose the opposite ends of the spectrum I chose to combine ridgid, stencilled, hateful lettering with all things sweet, sparkly and candy-coated -i.e. I Hate Nice Things.
This will be on sale in my Folksy shop as soon as the snow stops casting its odd, eerie glow over every photo I try to take!
Soon to come, a love of all things grim, ghoulish and gross, or Love Turns to Hate, for all you Eighties Matchbox fans out there...
Stay strange xxx
