<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I love that they are taking their signature imagery and humor and putting it on these glam compact mirrors. How better to stay sharp in every sense of the word? </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Amy &; I had so much fun catching up with Jocelyn &; Roland — it was the next-best thing to visiting their booth! Don&#8217;t miss this laugh-filled glimpse into their creative process, what’s selling, and even their grant program for young artists, the template of which is free to anyone wanting to unveil their own. Remember, if you&#8217;re listening in, you&#8217;re not really drinking alone! </p>
