Weekend Vibes!


Whasssuuup!! So... It's the weekend. FINALLY!! After a long, hard week, what better way to cheer yourself up than plan for the weekend aheads activities... So we have 4 different thangs for everyone to check out this weekend.. Boom!

The first two take place tonight, and they are the Hotboxfoam party which takes place at Hotbox studios in P-Town, so if you're in the mood for cheap booze and more foam than a two year olds bath, then head on over there!! For those that prefer a drier Friday evening, why not head on down to Arcade Empire for Shadowclub, Southern Gypsy Queen and 7th Son, this is bound to be a great show!!


Saturday's line up includes the now popular Neighbourgoods Market in Braamfontein, Joy-Burg. Pull in there for tasty treats, some chilli tequila and great shopping! Not to be missed if you're in Gauteng! P.S a little bird tells us that our friend LO, will be having a MASSIVE sale... Ladies... Do yourselves a favour and get there.. You will not be disappointed!!

And for the Frikkie Awesome fans down in the Mother City, be sure to check out the International Tattoo Convention that will be running the whole weekend at the Pavillion Conference Centre at the V&A Waterfront... Have a look here at the website for more details!!

Sounds like a SWEET weekends worth of activities, so don't be lame and stay home... Be cool and be seen!! POW!!

We're stuck on Mikado!


So to get the year off to a sweet  start, we thought we'd share this AWESOME little company with you... MIKADO.

Basically, Mikado is a company made up of  two super creative sisters, one of which we have featured as a Frikkie Cool Creative! Maaike and Benieke team up to bring you wallpaper, vinyl wall decals as well as wrapping paper all made with a bit of love, a sprinkling of joy and the coolest of details.

So for all you out there who feel that your room or lounge could do with a bit of spicing up or if that birthday present you wrapped for your mom looks pretty lame... Get in contact with Mikado, they'll sort you out in no time...
