Matchbox KC

Colorado or bust, baby! 🏔️⛷️🏂🌲🥾These will start selling fast at our upcoming fall and holiday markets! Message me now if you’re interested.

On September 11, 2001, all 73 employees of the Windows on the World restaurant died when the plane crashed into the World Trade Center’s North Tower, 30 floors below the restaurant’s 106th and 107th floors. Of all the matches I have procured, Windows on the World has been the most special. I wasn’t sure for a long time what I would do with it but of course, it should stay with the rest of New York and continue to be remembered.

KANSAS! 🌻🌾🦬💛

Keep an eye out for these beauties at the Peaceworks Local Art Fair Sept 21 -22 in Theis Park.

It can’t be underestimated the amount of secondhand smoke we were all forced to hotbox at one time. If you didn’t smoke, everyone else around you did. EVERYONE. SMOKED. EVERYWHERE. Theaters may have been the only exception. Even my high school had a smoking courtyard for the students and that was as late as 1993. Imagine smoking on an airplane now or lighting up after eating your Big Mac inside McDonalds. Even better, in a hospital waiting room! It was a different, smokier kind of vibe back then. And no one had any idea how bad we must have stunk. 🤷‍♀️🚬👃

Matchbox KC is at First Friday tomorrow night in 5-9 … Baltimore between 18th and 19th St.

Matchbooks: the original memes.
