👋🏼 Hey, Sam here. I wanted to share the coolest trinkets I found at the Red Door Gallery on Oakland Avenue last weekend.

The intrigue: The North End pop-up market put on by arts and music event production company Mean Red hosted a food truck, DJ and local vintage and handmade sellers.

  • The brand sells rust-dyed T-shirts, linen pants, clutches and wallets.

Yes, but: I regret not picking up one of these funky ceramic lighters made by Mud Honey Co.
