Q: How Do You Store Your Ephemera?

Here’s the whole piece for this particular ephemera storage system (I’ve got lots of organizing “systems”, including piles on the floor!) #CelebratingTheCreativeJourney with #vintagefinds #oldpaper #vintagepaper #ephemera #vintagestorage #junkjournalsupplies #vintagecabinet

← Cozy up with a good book… Thanks for a great year! →

I’m Trina Lucido, artist + owner of Jubilee Flea, a curated online store filled with vintage finds for the artist, journaler, collector + user of vintage things.

My journey began in a small town in Ohio where I was a math nerd who loved to create + visit her grandma whose house was filled with Goodwill treasures. She could've been a star on that hoarders show. One day I realized I loved creating more than numbers and went to art school. That changed my world.

Now I spend my days collecting, selling + using vintage finds in my artwork + journals.

When people find out I'm an artist, the first thing they want to know is what kind of art do I make. That's when I get the deer-frozen-in-headlights look because I never know how to answer. Cuz I make a lot of different stuff. Journals. Cute little snowmen. Christmas trees out of yardsticks. Greeting cards. Coloring books. And that was just December. I draw, I saw, I sew, I cut, I paste. I just create. And I collect vintage things that "speak" to me (no, I don't actually hear voices) and when it's time to create, I usually have a pretty good stash of whatever I need on hand. And the store only stocks those kinds of things, pieces that I feel are special and would use myself.

I love this creative journey I'm on and my hope is that Jubilee Flea will help you celebrate yours.

Thanks for stopping by ... now go shop!

PS - If you found me by way of The Paper Flea Market, hooray! It became Jubilee Flea on July 1, 2015.
